I purchased the book for Victorian inspiration for use in ATCs, collage work, and steampunk art material. Wonderful ideas and features for use with mermaids, sirens, and other collage projects.

A fascinating book, with wonderful illustrations, it could have been made much more interesting and enjoyable with some description of the items and their use. If this had cost a little more, it would have been worth it. Some of the items I have seen in my Grandmother's home, unfortunately, much was lost when her Mother's home was burn't down in 1942. A book definitely worth buying.

I have enjoyed looking through this fascinating book and it is a great help to me as a writer, when I want a visual fix on a Victorian article I plan to use in a story.

It's a great book, here you will find many quality and beautiful pictures for your design.
I really liked it, this is very useful for the designer.

This is a good clip art book for finding old illustrations to be
used in Steampunk projects. There is no cd included.
The images need to be physically cut out or scanned to be used.
I gave this book as a gift to a friend, who is an artist.
He was very happy with the illustrations.

Lots of images to choose from of almost every item you can imagine. Great book.
