    I was happy to find these particular plates to go with some I already have. Shipping was delayed a bit, due to the seller being out of town temporarily. However, the seller stated this up front before I ordered, so no problem. Item was as described, packaged very well, and the value was good for this pattern and workmanship. Would recommend seller.

    Hard to believe how our postal service works (or not). Package arrived today, finally after it's 14 day tour around the USA Very reasonable shipping costs, very securely packaged. Just as described, probably even better. It is adorable. And especially since it had the trinket. Good value for me. Wonderful seller, I would buy from them again without hesitation. A+1 seller *****.

    Items were exactly as described and expected. Seller sent a discount offer that applied for a quantity of one but, via refund, honored the discounted price for two. Great communication and fast shipping. A+++

    A Must Have Pyrotechnic Manual For The Enthusiast.

    Reverend Lancaster's book is an extensive look at early 20th century pyrotechnic arts and though formulae are somewhat dated the processes and devices are still used and are carefully explained. Much was updated in later editions but everyone wants a first for their collection!
