So this is who I was bidding against in that last Harry Clarke auction
Home
I bought a 1931 copy of [abe]Hans Anderson's Fairy Tales[/abe] on ebay the other day for about twenty quid. It's in terrible condition (though I've mostly reassembled it) and some of the black and white illustrations have been crayoned in by a child, BUT, all of the colour plates are present and they're lovely to see. Will I cut it up and frame them like these people have? Probably not, though there is an outside chance if I can get a good conditioned copy of the book.
I might scan the pictures in later and post them up here, though you can see a few if you're quick here, here, and here.
Don't be outbidding me on the next book just so you can carve it up and sell it on.

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
