John Carerra discovered his grandfather's old tattered copy of the Webster's Pictorial Dictionary under a chair and decided to reprint it. See what this fascinating ten year labour of love involved.

The Leather & Deluxe Leather Bound 100 edition books run between $3500.00 and $4600.00 US dollars at the creators website, Quercus Press. Fortunately for us mortals there is a more realistic Trade Edition that is on sale for $26.33 on Amazon.ca . I also saw these last week at one of our favorite haunts, a fabulous little store on West Broadway called Stepback; although since they were closed I don't have any clue as to the price.
