Description:
London: W. Osborne, T. Griffin, and J.M. Mozley and Co, 1792. Hardcover. First Edition. 4 x 7in. [vi.] 215pp. Bound in recent full polished calf. Gilt titling and ornamentation. 5 raised bands. Marbled endpapers. New endpapers, lacking the original blanks. Illustrated with engravings on wood preceding each fable. Though several institutional records suspect Thomas Bewick to be the illustrator, we believe the illustrator to be a different artist, among several of lesser repute commissioned to emulate Bewick's engravings after their initial commercial success. A scarce edition, with only one copy held institutionally. NEAR FINE. The title page with former owner names of the period at the topmost, a hint of darkening to the margins of the title page, otherwise is Fine having been exceptionally well maintained. The text-block is bright and completely clean and the handsome modern binding remains crisp and new. As pictured.
