1960? 17 cards each illustrating in full color one fable of La Fontaine. Each is signed "Calvet-Rogniat." 3½" x 5½". Paris: Editions Educatives. Set for $100 from Alexandre Przopiorski de Cay, Lyon, France, June, '00. Five cards, including FG, for €5 apiece, from Brie Comte Robert at the Paris Post Card Exhibit, Jan., '05. Four cards from Elizabeth Sagar, including the new "Monkey and Cat," for £5 through eBay, May, '12. Extra of FG for €4 from Recto-Verso, Strasbourg, July, '19.
Strong, colorful presentations of the fables. The picture side includes the large illustration and a title beneath. The verso contains the title again, the text of the fable, La Fontaine's name, and the "Editions Educatives: Paris" logo. I enjoy the expression on the face of the bumpkin fisherman (note the striped stockings) as he hauls in his little fish. Also well portrayed is the greed of the man in GGE. The illustrator represents the notion of "belling the cat" physically by having the chief rat hold a bell. He interprets the scene very well by having all the rest of the mice march away. It may be hard to believe that the weasel got into the granary through that very small hole!
