Cartoon-Like Prizes

1950? 11 cards each with a simple cartoon illustration of a La Fontaine's fable on one side and the text of the fable on the other. 3" x 4¾". Apparently given as school prizes for attendance or punctuality. 10 Francs apiece from Helen Moncourt on the Quai de la Seine, May, '97.

Simple figures, strong colors, and lively scenes make this a good set for children. My favorite here is TMCM. These rats are having fun!  For a copy of MM that landed elsewhere in the collection, see "Individual Fable Cards."
