FAERIES and OTHER FANTASTICAL FOLK

THE FAERIE PAINTINGS OF MAXINE GOULD
DELUXE BOXED HARDCOVER GIFT EDITIONUNBELIEVABLE ILLUSTRATIONS!
Up for grabs is this deluxe edition of the breathtaking showcase of Maxine Gadd’s whimsical, colorful fairy paintings. 
Her highly detailed work has appeared before in anthologies, but this is the first book dedicated to her works alone —and it is exquisitely produced! As you can see above, it is bound in rich red cloth and with matte art paper, with matching box. What a treat for fans of fantasy art, who have already turned other titles on fairies into bestsellers: very few painters have managed to capture this unseen world so completely. Looking at the pictures—sometimes shimmering, sometimes eerie — you can practically hear boughs creak, leaves rustle, small wings flurry, and voices chatter in a tongue unknown to mortals. To say that these pictures are nothing short of incredible would still be the understatement of the year. You HAVE to see these in real life to truly appreciate their remarkable detail and magnificent colors. Here are about a dozen and a half or so for you to marvel at, and an nice as these are, they pale in comparison to the actual items within. Enjoy!


See what I mean? AWESOME! aren't they?! Commentary by the ever-popular John Grant, aimed at “believers,” enhances the images. This limited edition was only available as a special purchase to certain bookclub members and was never available to the general public through bookstores or online companies. I have only a few and can state categorically that this is by far the best illustrated book on fairies I have ever seen!
If you love fairies as I do, don't pass this one up for when they are gone, they are gone and no telling if this deluxe limited edition will ever be reprinted. A physical description follows...

 Regarding Auctions & the Item...
I am a private collector of art, books, music (10,000 records alone!) and "stuff" and am very picky about what I buy. I don't like surprises when I buy things from auctions any more than you do. I promise everything there is to know about this item is in this description. I also do not subscribe to "grading" as frankly, grading is totally inconsistent and most of the "graders" TRULY have no clue, so I will use plain English if it is OK with you...
*Shown right is the hardcover book with inlay which comes in a matching gift box as shown at the top of this page. All copies are still brand new and sealed in shrinkwrap, perfect for gift giving... Enjoy!.
I have sold many, many books and music items on eBay and have only received one complaint in thousands of auctions about the accuracy in my descriptions.
As an eBay Powerseller, I have met eBay standards for excellence in trading so you may bid with confidence knowing you will get what you THINK you are bidding on!
Please check my feedback. It is a record I am very proud of...
I have LOTS of music items, and tons of books available for purchase. Please check my other offerings to see if there is anything else you might be interested in for combined shipping. There are links above and below and why not bookmark my site to make it easier to find at a later date.
LORD OF CHAOSBook 6 of ~ The Wheel Of Time ~by Robert Jordan
The Wheel of Time turns and Ages come and go, leaving memories that become legend.
Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth returns again.
In the Third Age, an Age of Prophecy, the World and Time themselves hang in the balance. What was, what will be, and what is, may yet fall under the Shadow."
Called by many "the modern day Tolkien", Robert Jordan has created a world as intricate and fascinating as that created in Middle-earth. For those who are not familiar with Jordan's work but love Tolkien, you will enjoy this immensely. Although their writing style is different, the content is quite similar. Jordan's Eye of the World series is also written in a fantastical world, reminiscent of medieval England, where human and non-human creatures abound, and in Jordan's case, some even more mystical and mythical; and of course, a dark lord!
Men, wolves, Myrdraal (fades), birds, Ogier, dark societies, Aes Sedai (wizard-like, and WOMEN only!), magic powers, enchanted items, swords and axes, assorted battles, villages & countrysides, castles and towers, rivers and ships, famous lore going back ages; I can tell you first hand, as a Tolkien FANATIC, I really enjoyed this entire 11 book series! This is book one, and every bit as exciting as The Fellowship of the Ring! A physical description follows...
"Jordan has come to dominate the world that Tolkien began to reveal."--The New York Times
"Jordan is able to take...familiar elements and make them his own, in a powerful novel of wide and complex scope. Open religious and political conflicts add a gritty realism, while the cities and courts provide plenty of drama and splendor. Women have a stronger role than in Tolkien...Each character in this large cast remains distinct....Their adventures are varied, and exciting.... a fantasy epic."--Locus
"Robert Jordan has created a fantasy world as tangible and credible as history. He has a fine eye for detail and a vivid sense of drama."--Morgan Llewelyn
First Print HC! A physical description follows
Regarding auctions, let me add that I've been collecting art, books, music and "stuff" for over 35 years and have amassed an enormous collection with many duplicates. I am very picky about what I buy (especially in records and books!) In like fashion, I don't like surprises when I buy things from auction so I promise everything I know about this item is in this description.
*As stated a, first printing hardcover with original priced and unclipped dust jacket. The book shows a minute amount of wear from handling... Enjoy!

PAYMENT TERMS: Pretty simple. Pay me, I send it!
GUARANTEED DELIVERY OR YOUR MONEY BACK! Because the post office is so incredibly inept, I ONLY SHIP domestic packages INSURED, which is AUTOMATICALLY INCLUDED in the shipping cost.. If your parcel gets lost or damaged in freight, your item will be replaced if one is available OR you will be completely refunded!
IMPORTANT MONEY SAVING TIP! If you are bidding on more than one of my items and would like to SAVE MONEY by COMBINING SHIPPING costs, I will be happy to do so, BUT, YOU MUST WAIT until everything you are bidding on finishes and I send you a combined invoice BEFORE you complete checkout. Once you complete checkout on an item, I cannot go back and combine it with anything else as eBay considers it a closed deal. TRUST ME, I will send you a combined invoice at the end of each item with updated and combined shipping costs and any deal discounts that may apply.
WHEN YOU ARE DONE BIDDING, winners agree to pay promptly once they receive a final invoice.
All of the payment info you need will follow. California deliveries will require sales tax.
PAYMENT OPTIONS:I accept Credit Cards, eChecks and electronic transfers with .Unfortunately, direct bank transfers are not offered due to cost and security concerns.As I reside in the USA, all payments must be made in US Dollars & Cents.
SHIPPING INFO: IMPORTANT!! I can ONLY SHIP to the address as noted in PAYPAL'S "TRANSACTION DETAILS". If you want it shipped to an alternate location, you will need to register that address BEFORE paying or it will be shipped to the registered address.Shipping costs will be determined by weight & destination. The least expensive is shown above, but you may click on the SHIPPING & PAYMENT tab found at the top of the page, just under the item's picture for all shipping options to all destinations both domestic and international. There you will find drop down boxes for your location and you can then use the shipping calculator to determine the correct cost for where you live.
 
Media Mail (once known as 4th class mail) is a special class of postage for books, music, videos and other printed media available within the US and territories. It is far less expensive than Priority Mail, but - it ..... is ........... slooowwwww!!!! Despite USPS claims of 3-9 day delivery times, MEDIA MAIL CAN actually TAKE UP TO 3 WEEKS to arrive, and their tracking info is frequently not updated until it actually arrives, making that feature pretty useless! PLEASE remember this when you leave feedback scores as the choice is yours and not my fault if it takes a long time to get there! If you want it in a week or less, you are going to have to bite the bullet and pay for Priority Mail which will get it there in 2-3 working days, 99% of the time, but it is more expensive. Basically, the choice is yours, but if you choose media mail, please don't write to me in 5 days asking where your package is, because the post office will have it and most of the time, they don't have a clue! International deliveries all go by Priority Mail and usually arrive within 1-2 weeks.
