    • Note this anthology is presented as a collection, no particular source being associated with each individual text. Some sources are indicated in the bibliography, but nothing shows the texts have been borrowed from any of these. Note moreover the absence of {{A|Henry Carnoy}}, « Contes, petites légendes, croyances populaires, coutumes, formulettes, jeux d'enfants, recueillis à Warlot-Baillon ou à Mailly », Romania, vol. VIII, F. Fierweg, Paris, 1879, source of Le violon enchanté, Jean à la tige d'haricot and Dick-et-Don; and {{A|marquis G. de Cherville}}, Récits de terroir, 1890, source of Le roi d'Yvetot. This PV1 was unable to determine the exact source of one text, Le saint de granit, left uncredited here (although it seems to be implicitly credited to Lacotte).
  • Inside art consists of black and white photographs of different origins (old postcards, private photographs, etc.).
