Edward Gorey Sticker Book

if you are a fan of Mr. Gorey's whimsical drawings, this sticker book is a delight. easy to apply and take off to reuse again! uses are endless from laptops, cabinets, and any hard smooth surface. just a bit of fun and silliness for any age as I can attest being well over 21!

Love these just wish there was more of these stickers that represented other characters that Edward Gorey drew, that’s the only negative thing about this.Super cute definitely recommend if you’re a Gorey Fan

Once I saw this item, I quickly ordered one for my oldest daughter in South Carolina. We are both faithful Gorey "fangirls" [as she calls us] and have converted my grand-daughter, too. When my daughter told me how much she loved all the Gorey characters in the book and asked if I had gotten myself one too, it prompted me to quickly order another copy for me!It brought back a memory from many years ago when my sister and I went on an excursion to New York City. After we went through a few things that she wanted to see or do, she asked me what I would like to do. I perked up and said I wanted to go to the Gotham bookstore because I wanted to personally visit one of Edward Gorey's haunts. I can't remember the exact date of the trip, but I do know that it was before 9-11 of 2001. This was back in the day of no smart phones or easy access to the internet, So we asked around in our hotel and even on the street for directions. Almost everyone we talked to seemed to know of Edward Gorey and his favorite bookstore on West 47th [I think]. But we were advised to use the location’s proper title of "The Gotham Book Mart" – who knew? Then we did!We found a cab to take us there. The driver said many people ask about the shop so he knew exactly where to go. Well, believe it or not, I was so taken up by the experience that I can only remember gazing wistfully up at the shop's sign and then opening the door and going in. My sister thought I was loonier than ever but I was in a veritably hazy enthrallment.I recall that the store wasn't crowded -- just a few others were there. And I can't really remember the person that greeted and spoke to us, but when I mentioned my affection for Gorey's works, he or she said something like: "Oh, you should have been here about an hour ago --- he stopped by as he often does:.That close, I was that close! But the clerk said that they did have some autographed copies of a few of his short little books that he often drops off. Needless to say, I jumped at the chance! Only 3 autographed copies remained, but I asked if I could have all 3. My sister butted in to say that I should ask for the price first. The clerk heard her and offered the asking price. I cannot remember exactly what it was --- but it was within my budget, so I purchased: "The Glorious Nosebleed", "The Loathsome Couple" and "The Blue Aspic" --- all signed by Gorey. I can't remember how long we stayed but since my sister was getting antsy I know we left sooner than I wanted to. How I wish I would have had a cellphone camera to capture the moment, but I didn't. I only have splintered fragments of the best part of our NYC escapade.P.S. I actually gave my precious copy of “The Loathsome Couple” as a wedding present for some friends. Twenty-five years later they divorced. My only thought was “how could I tactfully ask for my Gorey back?” Then again, maybe my gift predestined them for an unhappy marital conclusion --- which is OK because I liked her well enough, but him? Not so much!

I'm an Edward Gory fan. I was so glad to find this book of stamps.

Purchased as a gift. Stickers are co!orful and seem of good quality. You also get a lot of them across the book. My one issue is that the stickers repeat alot.

If you are a Gorey fan, these stickers are a must have.

A nice assortment of Edward Gorey’s whimsical drawings in sticker form. Petite for easy use in many ways. I will adorn letters to my friends with these wonderful little gems.

Nothing "cheap" about this item. Substantial stickers...to be enjoyed on envelopes and notes by children of all ages. Up to 93.I'm now wondering about Gorey's wonderfully funny book, THE HAPLESS CHILD. Quite amusing in a hyperbolic, "dark" way, of course. Anyway, my wonderment stems from that darkness -- A pedestrian dying immediately, for example, after getting hit on the head by falling masonry and all! (One of the tale's lighter moments.) Appropriate for young kids? (I'm guessing, YES! Kids DO like tales of bloodthirsty vampires more than those about prom queens, as I learned 45 years ago, from our now-50-year-old daughter. Still, not sure. Those Grimm's tales for the little ones probably provides my answer, but, then again, no graphic pics or drawings associatedc with them.)

Love it, lots of stickers, nice colours and well-printed. There are repeats of individual designs, but they're in different sizes and colours, so not exactly the same. Very nice!

Wer Edward Goreys schwarzhumorige Figuren mag, wird dieses Stickerbuch lieben.Da sind einige der "üblichen Verdächtigen" versammelt. Die Sticker sind gute Qualität, aber leider mit einem kleinen Nachteil, sie sind nicht nah genug am Motiv ausgestanzt, so daß man doch recht viel weißen Rand hat, jedenfalls mehr als mir persönlich lieb ist.Gut aber, daß die Motive sich zwar wiederholen (insgesamt 50 verschiedene Motive verteilt auf 180 Sticker), aber in verschiedenen Größen daher kommen. Gute Idee!Es gibt ganz kleine, nur so 2-3 cm und größere, etwa Streichholzschachtel groß. Zum Verschließen von Briefumschlägen ideal.Der Preis ist etwas grenzwertig (printed in China), aber dafür sind sie was Besonderes.

Purchased as a gift for another Gorey fan. Mischievous, mysterious and very cheering.
