New Beau Peep Book ?
« on: May 15, 2009, 09:33:17 PM »
I just saw this on ebay but have no idea what it is (a book, greetings card, poster?).  



http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=370201682253

Is there anyone who can speaka da Italiano and can translate?

I translated the page with Babelfish but it doesn't say much about the book apart from: "Seller's description
In perfect conditions, never read!"
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

That last bit looks like good advice.

I was told years ago that a Beau Peep book was to be published in Italy and I vaguely recall writing some kind of foreword for it. Apparently, the strip was quite popular there. I've never seen a copy of the book so maybe I'll buy it---my wife is taking Italian classes at the moment!

Why the exclamation mark at the end?

I get so used to seeing something I don't notice when it isn't quite right. Look at 'Beep Peep' - the lettering's different.

I noticed that Tom, and I'm not convinced it's Andrew Christine's artwork either..

I think I'VE bought it but the instructions are in Italian and I'm pretty sure I've messed up. It keeps asking me to do something that I have no idea about. Do eBay police arrest you?

It's definitely NOT Andrew Christine's artwork. In fact it's better not to show it to him.
