The Book Dragon is: IN

Research books in the mail! Yes!

I am now the proud possessor of The Carousel Keepers, Carousel Horses (lots and lots of wonderful photographs), and Saturday Night at Moody's Diner. Carousel Horses came in a large, well-taped box, nestled like a jewel in layers of crumpled newspaper, wrapped in clean brown paper on which a pine tree had been hand-inked, and the wish, 'Happy Holidays to you in Maine.'

*happy sigh*

There were checks in the mail, too, which are, truthfully, Beyond Useful, but not nearly as satisfying as the books.

If you are interested in the art of Carousel horses, I highly recommend "Painted ponies" by William Manns (might be OOP) and "Fairground art" by Geoff Weedon. Please feel to email me if you want more publication details.
