I am trying to find a particular edition of Bulfinch's mythology.  I have bought 2 editions so far on ebay, even an original 1913, but none have the particular illustrations of the one I am looking for, and I am sure they exist because I use to own a copy. I have seen these illustrations on the web, for example http://www.bulfinch.org/fables/bull11.html, but does anyone know which is the correct edition?

yeah, I was afraid of that, but it works if you cut and paste into your browser.  Pretty much any page of the 'Age of Fable' section of www.bulfinch.org gives illustrations.  Even if anyone would have good suggestions of where to look for this information?
Peeking at pages selected at random, I'd say the illustrations selected for the site are in quite different styles, probably not all from the same edition.

You might want to look for the edition illustrated by Martin and Alice Provenson, who had a very distinctive style (color not black line drawings) -- published in the 1950s or 1960s, if that time frame matches your childhood... google Provenson Bulfinch and see if you can find a site with a sample illustration
