The following art prints are all over 80 years old and orginal, another 20 years or less and they will be classed as a 'true' antique. Unlike modern copies, these are a very good investment because not only are they decorative, ideal for framing and hanging, they will become more valuable over time.

THE GREAT WAR MAGAZINE ISSUE 62 VC'S WON IN THE WAR

THE GREAT WAR MAGAZINE ISSUE 62 VC'S WON IN THE WAR
The Great war magazine was published during the war years, reporting back news from the frontline and this issue dates to October 1915. The war had already been raging for just over 12 months and this issue dealt with those who had won a bravery award, the highest for gallantry, during the 'early' years.

What an 'interesting' read and for anyone who has an interest in the Victoria cross and those who were awarded one for bravery above and beyond the 'call of duty', then you would find this fascinating. another couple of years and this old mag will be an 'antique' piece of ephemera, getting rarer by the day.

I have seen these 'war' magazines sell for all sorts of prices but cannot give an accurate value for this issue of the great war based on previous completed sales. early issues sell best and condition always will always increase the value as usual. However, as these old mags are getting on to be over 100 years old, they have done well to survive and how many more copies are 'out' there for sale?

Your purchases will be insured up to the sum of £39.00 at no extra cost, its free.

I guarantee that its the genuine thing and if you are not 100% satisfied then I will give you your money back.

The condition of the magazine is not to bad considering, the staples are rusty, small rips and tears, some stains and fading and whole host of 'age' related 'issues'.

 

Overall, its in a good readable condition and ideal for a collector of war memorabilia, old magazines, ephemera, VC and Victoria Cross collectibles memorabilia, collectors of 'topo' and 'first world war' photos.

Vintage Childrens Book - The After You Story Book

A lovely old childrens illustrated book with 6 colour illustrations and many black and white illustrations. The inside cover pages have been illustrated by Heath Robinson.

GENUINE ANTIQUE PRINTS FROM £00.15P - CLICK HERE!

The book is showing its age but is in not to bad a condition considering it must of been published over 50+ years ago? I am guessing this book must have been published in the 1930's or there abouts but not entirley sure.

The pages do have some stains, foxing and very small tears but not many, the colour prints are not effected by this (borders are) but some of the full page black and white pictures may have some signs of age.

There are some great prints within the book including animals, one of cats and one of dogs.

The prints still retain their vibrant colour and would be ideal for framing if the book was to be a 'breaker'.

It would be a shame to 'break' such a wonderful old book like this but it does happen.

The Heath Robinson illustrations are a good example of his work and shows what a great illustrator he was, hence his popularity amongs collectors of art.

The following are just some of the pages scanned from this book.
