A rare find...
Since Christmas, I've been searching for 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens. I've visited a humble little bookshop in Horncastle, during the weekend, which is named 'Jabberwock Bookstore.'
I managed to buy a unique copy that was published by Dickens House in 1965 and without realising there was a signature and a message inside that says:
'Our short association but a lovely one indeed Lyn.
Cedric Charles Dickens
I will honour Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all the year.'
It was signed by Charles Dickens Great-Grandson, Cedric Charles Dickens for a Lyn Pykett. She is the author of 'Charles Dickens Biography' and a Professor and Vice-Chancellor at Aberystwyth; University of Wales.
If anyone could evaluate the price, please let me know. I originally bought it for £5.

He transforms his eagle-eyed photo's into a hand-drawn, high-quality print, worthy to hang on any wall; whether your a car enthusiast, designer, retailer or just regular Joe, like me.

I wanted to create something others could enjoy, bringing a little bit of automotive heritage into your home... or garage." Within the next few weeks his gallery will have a few more editions: "I'm working hard in the background and will start to add more over the next few weeks. Rome wasn't built in a day you know! I'll be doing a lot more variations than just cars, some of my travels etc... and I'm also available for custom prints, if you have a special place you visit or a beloved pet or car, to be fair anything, just message me and we can go from there."
