The listing, Large Pressed Fairy Book Illustrations by Brian Froud has ended.
Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book.
Because of my success with my Dragon, Witch Pagan, Wizard and Warlock books I have decided to list another one from our collection.
This book has a vintage feel Featuring pressed fairies, goblin, and elf! Photos are just a few of the many fairies in the book.
This book is so popular that many people have these squished fairies tattooed on their body.
The original artwork paintings for this book were done by Artist Brian Froud!
This is a reproduction of the diary of Lady Angelica Cottingham, which features pressed garden fairies. Or rather the psychic images of the fairies, who quickly turned it into a game, where they leapt between the closing pages in an effort to outdo each other to produce the most outrageous poses. The book claims to be the facsimile edition of the notebook of Lady Cottington who, it is said, took the infamous photograph of a group of fairies that was authenticated by Conan Doyle, but later discredited. She was determined to prove the existence of fairies and began to capture them between the pages of her notebook, in which she had previously pressed wild flowers. This is a record of the fairies she caught, and of the disruptive influence they had on her otherwise sheltered life!
