Spineless Classic from nottheusual.co.uk




I love it when I have the chance to grab a book, find a quiet place and read (normally until I fall asleep!). I love reading anywhere - in the bath, living room, on holiday, bedroom etc. So when nottheusual.co.uk got in contact with me and showed me their new range of Spineless Classics I was really excited. Spineless Classics is a new range of 'art' that consolidate a whole book onto a single page! I call them a piece of art because I believe they are, a high quality poster with eligible text from a whole book would be perfect framed in a living room, study, children's playroom/bedroom - anywhere! There is a vast range of books available from Spineless Classics including: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, The Lost World, Romeo & Juliet, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, The Jungle Book, The Hobbit, Oliver Twist, Alice's Adventures In Wonderland, just to name a few! There really is a Spineless Classic for everyone. They would make a perfect unique gift, treat for a book or art lover or simply for yourself.

 Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Illustrated peter Rabbit and Friends

Peter Pan

When I saw them I straight away thought the children's stories (The Jungle Book, Peter Pan, The Wind in the Willows, The Complete Peter Rabbit and Friends, Black Beauty etc) would look amazing framed in a child's bedroom or playroom. What a perfect way to make children aware of books, reading in a unique way, words and classic stories! The more adult stories (Romeo & Juliet, Pride & Prejudice, The Hobbit, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Around the World in Eighty Days, Life of Pi, Moby Dick, The Phantom of the Opera etc) would be lovely framed and hung up in a study, office, living room, bedroom etc. They are such talking points and would be for years!

I especially love the Pride & Prejudice story, which is available as a Spineless Classic. This is what nottheusual.co.uk say about the Pride & Prejudice Spineless Classic:

'Arguably Jane Austen's most famous work, the tale of Elizabeth Bennet's romance with the dashing Mr Darcy is one that has thrilled young ladies of the realm for two centuries. Colin Firth in a wet shirt may have been the hearthrob of the 90's but this, the original work will be topping best loved novel lists for generations to come. Pride and Prejudice is not a short work and was originally published in three hardback volumes. Reducing this to a single sheet means it has to be full A0 size. This design is a single sheet at 1189 x 841mm (4613/16 in x 331/8 in). All Spineless Classics are printed on heavyweight paper in sharp, lightfast ink which will not fade.'

I was kindly sent the Pride & Prejudice Spineless Classic (£55.99) from nottheusual.co.uk (a brilliant website FULL of unique products - you should go and check them out!), so I could see for myself how stunning they are and I wasn't disappointed. The delivery was quick and the posted was carefully packaged, as not to ruin it. I can read all of the words on the poster, though small they are eligible. The poster isn't a typical 'boy/girl band' poster, it's much better quality than all my Spice Girls ones from years ago! Also on all of the Spineless Classics there is an image related to the story book on the poster too.
