There are numerous limited editions from the Fanfrolico Press as well as from other publishers, plus many signed works on offer. There is a brilliant collection of handwritten letters from Norman Lindsay to Lawson Glassop. These letters reveal a close friendship between the pair and Norman certainly felt free to express himself when discussing his friend Glassop’s novels. As you would expect of Norman he was not always complimentary but he was always honest. All told there are 12 handwritten letters from Norman over about 40 pages as well as two typed and signed letters. Here’s just a few of what we have available: Bulletin magazines with the stunning full page illustrations by Norman. Many of these cartoons are as relevant today as they were when published.
