Nice additions! Love the Sleeping Beauties.
Longer story, some time ago I had given away my
TB first Brennen Muß Salem
with the amazing cover from the late Celestino Piatti at the Secret Santa..
Had thought that it would be easy to find an other NICE copy
for my collection... it wasn't.:eek:
Now, i found a Celestino Piatti collector who just sold his complete CP collection,
there were still a few items left, including a copy of the TB I'm looking for.
I asked about the price, it was great. Then I asked about the prices of the last paintings,
but they were far beyond my price range. I told the collector that one of my collecting goals
is an original by every illustrator I realy like. The collector then told me that he had something for me thats maybe something for me, another signed first edition with a small drawing/remarque.
I, of corse bought it immediately.... a few days later the collector informed me that he sold his other, expensive
original paintings from Celestino Piatti, for $$$$$...
