BRIAN MAY SIGNED - DIABLERIES STEREOSCOPIC ADVENTURES IN HELL - Hardcover QUEEN

Description: This auction is for a luxury hardcover slipcased UK edition of Brian May's absolutely unique best-seller "Diableries - Stereoscopic Adventures In Hell". What is a Diablerie? A Diablerie is a unique stereo card with demonic scenes of the underworld, designed for stereoscopic viewers in Paris in the mid 19thcentury. A stereo card is a 3-D view printed on paper – they were first sold to the public in England and France around 1853, becoming hugely popular throughout the mid to late 1850s. Between them Brian, Denis and Paula have now discovered all 182 of the Diableries cards in existence and have brought them to the 21st century to be viewed through a modern day stereoscope, designed by Brian May, that he named an Owl.The three authors present the world with their extraordinary full set of Diablerie stereo cards (originally published from the 1860s to the 1890s) which they have collected and studied over the years. By looking through the stereoscope, supplied with the book, you will be transported to an underworld of devils, satyrs and skeletons, rich in imagery and storytelling. The three authors explore the magic of stereo photography and the story behind the image on each card is interpreted. Never before had these secrets been revealed – for instance, clues to the conflicts in France in a period of great unrest, suffering, shame and suppression – a period which, even in French schools, is seldom part of the curriculum. The Diableries are impudent, funny, sad, riotously inventive, satirical and dangerously seditious. This book is in perfect condition, still sealed in the original plastic packaging. It includes the original bookplate signed by all three authors, rock star Queen guitarist Brian May, and co-authors Denis Pellerin, and Paula Fleming. I've been collecting signed books for a long time and unfortunately I have to trim down my collection now. I will be happy to refund the full price minus the shipping costs if there is any doubt on the authenticity of the signature. Please take a look at the other very valuable signed books I have for sale. I combine multiple items for savings on shipping charges. I ship worldwide. Please ask about international shipping charges and/or different shipping options.Thank you!
