Twenty-nine French matchboxes, 1950
This almost-complete set, missing only "Les Deux Pigeons," replicates the full set of covers in both sets of SEITA illustrations, minus the two larger covers apparently used for packages of ten. Their images are thus the same as that set.
French Matchboxes, 1950
These are the first that I found, and they are those pictured first below. What a pleasure to see covers I had found in two other places now on their boxes. FG, TMCM, and "La Taupe et les Lapins" repeat from there. Strong new designs here include "La Belette Entrée dans un Grenier," FK, "Le Heron," and "Le Renard et le Bouc."
English Matchboxes Set, 2000
A quick guess says that these are Bewick illustrations. The fables presented are the Ox and the Reed (OR), the Tortoise and the Hare (TH), the Crow and the Pitcher (CP), the Ant and the Dove (AD), and "The Countryman and the Snake."

"Aesops: Riverside's Finest." Matchbook, 1990
This matchbook features an image of a fox looking up at Aesop, who holds a staff. The restaurant advertises itself as "Riverside's Finest." A quick check in Google seems to indicate that this restaurant, however fabulous it was, no longer exists.
