Given the recent Fablelistik edition announcement, I thought folks here might be interested in seeing the Medici Society release from about 110 years ago. The design is modest, and lacks illustrations, but it is printed on handmade paper and has elegant press work (letterpress, obviously). It can often be found in near fine condition quite affordably.
