Unique Pictures4
The pictures in this book are all extremely interesting, and while some are slighty pixelated, they're all very fun to look at. The majority are fairy tale illustrations, though four are Alice in Wonderland. Rackham's drawings slightly creep you out--exactly what we were going for!

If you've never gotten a book like this before, the cards are four to a page and 4.5x6 inches per card (a 9x12 size book.) Each card is bordered in white.

I wish the pictures were bigger- but they are postcards5
I didn't buy this book to use the illustrations as post cards, I bought it simply for the illustrations. The pictures are glossy and high quality, plus Arthur Rackham was an amazing, intricate, fluid artist, and his work is definitely worth becoming familiar with. I also bought Edmund Dulac's illustrations, which are equally beautiful, if not more.
