IMPORTANT: Anne Frank's Copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales Comes to Auction at Swann Galleries
Image Courtesy of Swann Auction Galleries
New York— On Thursday, May 5, Swann Galleries will hold an auction of Autographs, featuring Anne Frank's copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales (Aus Grimms Märchen), in which the young diarist wrote her own name as well as her sister Margot’s.
The sale represents the first major offering of Anne Frank autograph material at auction in over two decades, and the discovery of the book is an intriguing tale. The book was left behind in the Frank’s Amsterdam apartment when the family’s departure to the famed secret annex was hastened after Margot was called to relocate to a work camp.
The book eventually made its way to a secondhand bookstore in Amsterdam’s Runstraat, where a Dutch couple purchased it not long after the war. In 1977, the couple’s children discovered the signature and wrote Anne's father, Otto Frank, the family’s sole survivor, to let him know of the discovery. In a poignant letter, which will be up for auction alongside the book, Otto expressed how deeply the discovery of the book affected him, as well as his wish that the family keep the book for their own daughter.
While her now-famous diary shows Anne as a young girl wise beyond her years, this book is a poignant reminder of her innocence and youth prior to her time in hiding and untimely death in a concentration camp. The book, along with Otto Frank’s letter and several news clippings related to its discovery, is estimated at $20,000 to $30,000. *

PermalinkI always hated Grimm's fairy tale, it always left a sour taste in my mind, i mean after being sorrunded with all things disney it sort of makes a person more used to happily ever after where as Grimm is just way too Grim if you ask me, so yea, anyways i have some dissertation writing to attend so i won't be able to entertain my thought here more!

PermalinkNever read Grimm's Fairy Tales before, but I was always eager to find at least a book sample. I would like to take up writing a book, but I guess I don't have appropriate writing skills. I had been following suggestions to make writing skills more sharpen quite a while. Don't know whether it helps or not.

Virginia Tech was not the worst school massacre in U.S. history. This was.
That spring morning in 1927 could not have been more beautiful, one of the students would later recall. The Bath Consolidated School just outside East Lansing, Mich., was holding final exams, but before the morning bell rang on May 18, 1927, children ran and played outside. Peals of laughter could be heard.
