About this product

Product Information

This is a reproduction of the diary of Lady Angelica Cottingham, which features pressed garden fairies. Or rather the psychic images of the fairies, who quickly turned it into a game, where they leapt between the closing pages in an effort to outdo each other to produce the most outrageous poses. The book claims to be the facsimile edition of the notebook of Lady Cottington who, it is said, took the infamous photograph of a group of fairies that was authenticated by Conan Doyle, but later discredited. She was determined to prove the existence of fairies and began to capture them between the pages of her notebook, in which she had previously pressed wild flowers. This is a record of the fairies she caught, and of the disruptive influence they had on her otherwise sheltered life.

    Great quality artwork, with good quality material.

    I would recommend this book for several reasons. One being the quality of the book and especially the thickness of the pages. The artwork is amazing with lovely detail & the content is compelling because these books are an unusual idea for fairy lovers, like me.

    I first came across this book, some 20 years ago, having had it bought for me by a friend. At the time I thought it was just simply beautiful

    I’ve been trying to track this book down for over 15 years. I was delighted to find that a copy I received was superb quality just as I remembered it was first published.

    Most beautiful illustrations

    Bought this book as I was a little jealous of one a friend had. I can look at the pictures for hours. I love it!
