Le Corbeau et le Renard Puzzle, 1952

 Item — Box: CFC Puzzles Box 2
Identifier: CFC2023.0045.4
Abstract

Here is a different approach to fable puzzles. Each fable image has a frame with room inside for 23 hexagonal pieces, each numbered on its verso. All except TMCM have a matching image that can help to solve the puzzle. I am surprised by the good condition of these puzzles. The pieces still fit! FS has a surprising but consistent misalignment. Other puzzles are FS, CP, and "The Monkey and the Cat."

Le Gland et la Citrouille, 1924

 Item — Box: CFC Advertising Box 1
Identifier: CFC2020.0032.3
Abstract What is so lovely about these advertisements is that each uses the well-known fable situation to work in a claim for the advertised product. So the "talkative turtle" could not sustain his flight holding on to the stick carried by the two ducks because he did not use Dentol to make his teeth strong. The tortoise was besting the hare because he took Goudron Guyot. The rat who retired from the world secure himself inside not a big wheel of cheese but a wheel of Dentol. The lamb that is...

Le Lievre et la Tortue, 1930

 Item — Box: CFC Tableware Box 2
Identifier: CFC2019.0257.1
Abstract

The conception of the scene here has, by contrast with other plates in the series, nothing to do with Grandville's original. The plate presents a dark and busy scene. The scene itself, and particularly the tortoise are not easy to take in. A mouse perches clumsily at the upper right.

Le Lievre et la Tortue Plate, 1965

 Item — Box: CFC Tableware Box 11
Identifier: CFC2023.0046.4
Abstract The designs here are mirror opposites of those on the colored Keller and Guerin plates just above. They also lack the golden stripe inside the rim. I continue to find these designs delightful, not least the tortoise and hare on their bicycles! After some negotiating and finally purchasing these lovely plates, I discovered the other similar Keller and Guerin plates and thought "Oh, no! I just bought things we already have!" Not true, as I found out when I opened them and compared. I...
