{"product_id":"aesops-fables-with-200-illustrations-by-harrison-weir-john-tenniel-and-ernest-griset","title":"Antique 1900s Aesop's Fables Henry Altemus Hardcover Book, Pictorial Green Fairy","description":"This vintage book is full of beautiful timeless tales as well as illustrations by some notable figures such as Sir John Tenniel (1820–1914) Tenniel is most famous for his iconic and imaginative illustrations for Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking-Glass (1871). Lewis Carroll was so impressed by Tenniel’s animated designs for an 1848 edition of Aesop's Fables that he selected him for the Alice books. Tenniel was the first cartoonist and illustrator of his genre to be knighted, a testament to his significant creative contributions. Although I could not find an exact publication date printed in this edition, I estimate that it is late 1800's to early 1900's due to some research I did based on when the illustrators listed in the book had their contributions published, as well as other reasons. But please note that I could not find an exact date noted inside the actual book and there does not appear to be any pages missing. It is in overall good condition for its age, with some minor wear and staining on the fabric cover. Please see all photos for an accurate description.","brand":"Mochroi Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52860381757624,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/6740\/0632\/files\/71c2dc3c-il_fullxfull.7663646083_fruh.jpg?v=1771354045","url":"https:\/\/mochroivintage.com\/products\/aesops-fables-with-200-illustrations-by-harrison-weir-john-tenniel-and-ernest-griset","provider":"Mochroi Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
