Description: Author: La Fontaine, Jean deTitle: Contes et Nouvelles en Vers (complete in 2 volumes)Publisher: Paris: Pierre DidotDate: 1800These two small 12mo. volumes are bound in full leather with gilt lettering & ornamentation on the spines & gilt borders on the front & rear covers. Both volumes have their gilt-lettered red spine labels. Condition: the bindings on both volumes are rubbed, especially on the corners where the leather has been rubbed through; the corners are also rounded. After the title page in volume 1, the pagination begins at page 5; it's apparent in the gutter that two leaves are missing, but the biographical text regarding La Fontaine begins on page 5, so it's unclear if the two missing leaves contained any text or if they were blank. Otherwise, this is a very good copy of this scarce item. No illustrations. Text is in French. Pages: volume 1: 198; volume 2: 226. Inventory no. 200244.
