I have found four different lottery sets using fables.  Click on a card from each to see the whole set.

 1860? "Loto des Fables de LaFontaine." Twenty-four stiff 4½" x 7¼" cards using illustrations after those of J.J. Grandville.

1900? Complete set of twelve lotto cards, each with two La Fontaine fable images, with titles and four lotto numbers each.  €150 from Thierry Corcelle, Paris, June, '19.

1900? Partial set of 6 cards similar in format to the above complete set, but with a different numbering system.

1895  "Le Jeu des Fables."  (The game of fables.)  Publisher Leon Saussine.  Complete with 9 cards 7" x 7½" and 72 tokens.
