I hit up Goodwill stores and half priced book stores weekly in search of discarded treasures. If i purchased every one i found I would be in real trouble. I force myself to rethink whether or not i need each one before i leave the store. I could really turn into a book hoarder if i wasnt careful!!!<br />thanks for sharing the book!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4382365136073900131.post-4328340760841600822010-05-06T08:09:55.701-04:002010-05-06T08:09:55.701-04:00Oh great! where is my comment?

This is fabulous. <br /><br />I have so many childrens' books dated in the early 1900s given to us by a firend whose mother was a teacher. They were actually children's schoolbooks. Amazing! They were illustrated by Willie Pogany, Kate Nielsen, Arthur Rackham, Maxfield Parish!!!<br /><br />And my husband thinks we have so many books and need to get rid of some of them...<br /><br />I did.<br /><br />I got rid of his university textbooks!Ces Adoriohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17338000465619901229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4382365136073900131.post-40934038429758564602010-05-06T07:04:14.683-04:002010-05-06T07:04:14.683-04:00It's really beautiful, I love the city draw!It's really beautiful, I love the city draw!Maldito Columpiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12744101649994816213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4382365136073900131.post-26497199824110745432010-05-06T01:45:17.261-04:002010-05-06T01:45:17.261-04:00I am in LOVE, I am in LOVE, I am in LOVE!

No wonder you have been seeking this. No wonder you grabbed this while you could. I mean GOSH, LOOK at this. The teacup on the cover, the way it's rendered, is beautiful. Better than computer-generated, and all the more impressive since they didn't have computers back then. Oh, Vanessa, I could stare at this all day. I can see how he has influenced you in the best possible ways. Oh, you lucky, lucky girl!<br /><br />Say what? Your husband did not get this for Mother's Day?

I would go to the theater and see an animated film and just admire the background art, then I'd have to go and see the same movie.... to watch the movie. :o) I follow a blog that I thought you might like. It's at animationbackgrounds.blogspot.com. Rob Richards does a phenomenal job of removing the characters and retaining the integrity of the background artwork. I think you'll enjoy it.
