My favourite tale type has been ATU 530 (the princess on the glass mountain) since I was very young. I had a photocopied version from a book in the early 70s, in which the hero uses eagle’s claws to climb the mountain and rescue the princess.

ETA: I’m in.

Oh cool! I was thinking of picking one version to represent each type, if you wanted to contribute that one it could be awesome :) 

 @13457137 @b735251d @ff51a124 @836df508 @a1b9025f I wish I still had it. Unfortunately I don't. But I have access to a number of variants. 

 @3f6633fc @b735251d @ff51a124 @836df508 @a1b9025f Do you remember what the book was? 

 @13457137 @b735251d @ff51a124 @836df508 @a1b9025f As far as I remember it was a kids' TV magazine annual, not a book of folktales at all. I'd love to get my hands on it again. 

 @3f6633fc Ok do you remember anything else than the eagle claws?
