1929 "Les Fables de Gibbs." Signed "Erel." 11¾ x 15¾". GA (Feb. 9), WL (Feb. 25), and MM (May 4). €10 for "beard cream" from Clignancourt, July, '19. €4 each for tooth care from anciendocument through Ebay, June, '20. €4.30 for "Mountain About to Give Birth" (March 2, 1929) from ladymary-fr on Ebay, Sept., '23.
Clever parodies of La Fontaine. "Le Chat et l'Oiseau" is a parody of WL: whatever explanations the little bird makes, the cat will eat the bird. GA is composed in particularly idiomatic slang verse, but I think it comes to something like this: a rogue having knocked about all summer comes to an old haunt and asks for a few rounds, offering only a brush in payment. The innkeeper asks what he did all summer and then responds that he can brush now. A barber snoozes and dreams that he has established a high-class shop in Paris and makes lots of money. He is awakened to give a local a shave. As La Fontaine wrote, we all construct castles in Spain. The mountain brings forth a little tube that later becomes famous worldwide.
