1900? Set of Six-Sided La Fontaine Storyblocks. “Les plus jolies fables de LA FONTAINE.” €45 from mademoisellejoliebroc through Ebay, July, ’25.
I agree with the seller’s description: “Superbe et rare jeu très ancien de 24 cubes en bois, dans sa boite d'origine." This is a beautiful set! The six fables are pictured on the wooden cover 10.75” x 7.5”. They are WC; “The Cat and the Monkey”; FC; “Two Rats and an Egg”; TMCM; and FS. It was not easy for me to put these together! The seller stipulates France as the origin; I wonder if the set might not come from Germany. I did a quick Google search, which turned up one instance of this set, which turned out to be our set offered for sale through another exchange.
