The gold vines and the wallpaper look really good and with your collectibles and unique book collection!!! I’m green with envy 😂 Harry Potter was one of the first “grown up” books I read in 3rd grade 🥰

That painted Peter Pan cover is awesome! The history of Dust Jackets is interesting. Clear windows didn’t really become common until around the early 1900s and once they became common shops began displaying item. So book companies began to create the dust jacket as a way to advertise the books in window displays since printing color on paper is cheaper than an elaborate inlaid book. The covers were meant to be disposable hence early dust jackets having ads printed on them. This is why old books rarely have the jackets with them. It wasn’t until the 50s or so that the jackets started becoming part of the book and were printed on heavier and quality papers.

I need to find the space and time to do that. I have boxes of books in my garage, ironically on storage shelves moldering away. My grandmother was a lover of books, and I always remember her with a book in the evenings. Three of my most cherished books were ones she gave me when I was visiting her as a child: a paperback of "Hawaii" by James Mitchner (missing the front cover - I read it so much it disappeared somewhere between 12 years old and 59), "War as I Knew It" by George S. Patton in hard back, and a Latin school book she undoubtedly forgot to return at the end of her school year. I also came about a first edition of "Have Spacesuit, Will Travel" by Robert A. Heinlein in hardback - a former library book I found in a Good-Will store which I bought for $1.00 which had the dust jacket still in pretty good condition.

Thank you for sharing! I'll pop in goodwill on occasion but never have any luck.

Hi Laura,,,🎉

Hey, Laura! Bernie Wrightson followed up on Mary Shelley's tale in 2012 with "Frankenstein Alive, Alive!" written by Steve Niles and published by IDW. Wrightson unfortunately passed before completing the project so the illustrative work for the final chapter was done by his colleague Kelley Jones. It's well worth a look. Bernie Wrightson is considered a legendary titan in the comic book industry.

Laura! Thank you so much for the mention! It totally made my day!!!!!🌟 That is my favorite Peter Pan, even though it is not a new release, I just think the illustrations are perfect for capturing a kid's/person's imagination. - like it would be the one that 20 years later they would remember. I am so glad you like it!!! I love your bookshelf and yes I agree wallpaper makes such a big difference! I was wondering... is that 'A Christmas Carol' illustrated by Ronald Searle I thought that I spotted on your shelf? I have been wanting to get that one! Also, was your copy of 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' illustrated? Thank you again so much!!!☕🌹

Yeah that's a Ronald Searle edition! Good illustrations are so unique,I love them! And for the scarlet pimpernel unfortunately no it isn't illustrated. And totally agree about the Peter Pan drawings!
