Lily Vagabond (lilyauthor) This is my absolute favorite collection of the original Brothers Grimm fairy tales, complete with gore and illustrations. It's a prized posession in my personal library.

Grimm's Grimmest by Jacob Grimm

Published by the brothers themselves way back when there wasn't any such thing as traditional publishing and all authors were indie by default.

Shari-amor Shut up! Gore and illustrations! I want.

Lily Vagabond (lilyauthor) So worth it. Hard bound book. It's gorgeous. I was super lucky to find it on sale in a Vancouver bookstore on a rainy day.

Shari-amor Is this the same one, Lily!? For some reason I thought it would be a lot more expensive.

Shari-amor Ah that's the paperback. The hardback is out of stock

Lily Vagabond (lilyauthor) Huh. Well looks like we're getting ripped off up here in the north :P

Time is probably a factor, this edition was published a while ago, but not long enough to call it vintage. Yet. I'm holding on to my copy. It might be worth millions some day.

Shari-amor At least half a mil. :-p

The hardback is $20 on amazon but since it's cyber monday, you get an extra 30% off. Sweet.


message 8: by Lily (new)

Lily Vagabond (lilyauthor) Actually, I only paid about 15$ at the time.
