Hello

I had seen, that old classic books of magic, looks so great, they use to be in hardcover or in leather bound, and sometimes they are also very large (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mf_bookread.gif)

I wonder if you know were can i buy on the internet or on a store books that are replicas of these old classics of magic from the 14, 15 , 16, 17 century?

Thank you so much

If you want specific texts, then I imagine you would have to contact some sort of specialty book binder who could do custom work, unless you are looking for novelties.

Expect nothing, or you will get caught up in the future and not pay attention to the present. Just do the practice diligently, do it because you enjoy it, do it because you believe in it. Don't wait for results, don't wait for it to happen.

I am more looking for some stores that can or do sometimes give Classics if not some replica like for example:

1611 King James Bible 400th Anniversary Edition
http://www.amazon.com/James-Bible-400th-Anniversary-Issue/dp/B003F14LSI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1286029898&sr=1-1

Or if not a replica at least some good Classic in Leather Bound or Hadcover that is new!

For example this classic that i must buy very soon, it looks so beautiful:

TAO TE CHING (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
http://www.eastonpressbooks.com/leather/product.asp?code=2617

Please let me know if you know some store that have some Classics that looks like this tao te ching, that is new and beautiful, i would like for example:

De occulta philosophia libri tres

Magiae naturalis sive de miraculis rerum naturalium ( that i had found this , but don't know if it is the same? looks like not!?http://www.magiae-antiqua-codex.com/en/index.php )

The Book of Abramelin

The Magus

etc

I know that there is stores that sometimes sell this old books, in the original or first edition like for example:
http://motusbooks.com/

But the thing is i like more to have a book that looks like these old ones and is NEW so i can care about the pages, so when years past bye, i look to the book, and say all these eyars had past bye, and i had care so much on you that you look like new my friend!!

Regards

ps. now after a research in wikipedia, i see that leather bound books, are not so good for the environment. so now i am more for hardcovers, that are made nature because hardcover is just a thick papper, and best would be if the pages are acid-free (IMG:style_emoticons/default/book.gif) lets just say: yes we can, make the environment better (IMG:style_emoticons/default/banana.gif)
