Hi again. I just wanted to let you know that my book finally arrived today. It is wonderful and amazingly accurate. I didn't know that it was going to be so much like the real book. Thank you so much! I will cherish it always.-A L.

Thank you so much!!!!! It is so much better than I ve ever imagine, thank you so much for making my dreams come true. I shall put picture of the book on my website and put Tallpoppy to my links. I will be for ever thanksful for this. I can't believe is true... but it really is... I wish you wrote your autograf in my book. I would very much like the future to know who made this fantastic book, so if you ever come to Norway, let me now, and I would like to meet you. Thanks again for making my dream come true...

My name is Brent and I am from Kentucky in the USA. I just received my Charmed replica this past week, and I couldn't be happier. The book is beautiful, but more on that in a moment. The main purpose of this letter is to let everyone know about my experiences with Tallpoppy Studios, specifically Archie (aka Alistair), to brag a little about how great the book (and this site) is, and to settle a few questions that others might have about the replica itself.

…

First about the book: it is EVERYTHING I hoped for, and then some. The book is AUTHENTIC and extensively detailed. You see, if you're like me, and you're buying (or thinking about buying) this book, then you know EVERYTHING about Charmed and the Book of Shadows, down to knowing which ear The Seer wears her one earring on (it's the left one, damn it! *smile*) So we (read: I) don't want a "replica" that is only a passing resemblance to the real BoS. We want the REAL Book of Shadows!

Hi Archie!

I have now received the book and I wish to clearly say that it is absolutely fantastic. My words cannot express how happy I am that I now own this book. My husband and I are equally astonished each morning when we see the book and its size.......It is as if it becomes bigger by the day, and even more fantastic. I am just so incredibly happy to have a book that has been made by Archie Graham and would like my future family to see who has made the book and when. In addition, it is quite unique in Norway. There are quite a few people who have really become interested in my book after I have shown them pictures of it and you may even get some more inquires from Norway, if you haven't already. The book made its way to Norway in fine shape. It was very well packaged and it was a dream come true when I sat with the book in my lap. I just cannot describe the feeling......it is just a marvelous job.....!!!! It was great that you included "Extra pages" and folders for photographs and pressed flowers. The information that you sent was also very good and informative....I shall follow the instructions when using the book...

I just can't believe it is now mine...

Thank you again, I will always be deeply grateful.

Sincerely,

Dad said it was in, so i rushed from school to pick up my book today!! i luuuuv luuv luuuv it!!! it's what i wanted PLUS more!! if i described all the details of why i luv it you'd be reading this email for days, so i'm gonna say that it is the best!!!

Thank you so much, your work is simply excellent and my son was, for the first time, speechless. I may be asking you to make another book for my daughter's birthday in end of March ... Again, thank you.

Dear Sir, I could not be more pleased with my book. It is an absolutely wonderful work of art. I have sat in awe of it , for the last hour, caressing and bonding with your beautiful work of art you created for me. Many Blessings: KD

Dear Mr. Graham,
To much anticipation my book has arrived and I am very pleased. Your work is magnificent. I have never owned such a book of such quality. I can't think of a better piece to own so closely associated with my favorite show. I am happy to refer you to anyone looking for a book of this construction. I know who I'll return too for my next book. Blessed Be PS

Hello Archie, On Thursday I received my book. It is absolutly Beautiful! I am so Happy with it, it is everything I expected and more. The Cover and spine are absolutly stunning. I am so happy with the paper and binding system, and thanks for the extra paper. And the graphics, they are breath taking. Thank you for everything. It arrived in perfect condition and was well worth the wait. Its just wonderful!

Thanks again, DL

Hello Archie!!! I hope all finds you and yours well this Xmas/Yule season, I am trying to 'gear up' for the holidays, but you know how it can be sometimes!!! I may have written to you before, letting you know how much i enjoy your work, my CHARMED BOS is, of course, magnificent, and if I may, I would like to express that on your Web Site, in a post or something?!?!?! Better yet, feel free to put this email up, if you so desire. I hope that soon I can order yet another book from you, and they are most assuredly worth the wait AND the cost!!!!

With love, Mary Beth

Hi Archi,

Would you possibly be able to tell me what sort of inks to stock up on for the BOS? By the by I must congratulate you on the emaculate copies of the charmed book it simply stunned me how accurate and wonderfull the artwork was. The title page was amazing, how did you manage to make it so traditional, authentic and just plain amazing (espesially the small yellow details around the vines!). So thanks again for sharing your great art with me.
Chris.

Hello Archie, I have just received the book. It is a present for my daughter and she is over the moon with it! Fantastic. You have done a great job and the wait was all worth while. Thanks and best wishes, Alan. USA

Archie, I picked up my book from the post office on Saturday. I am so happy to finally receive it. It was definitely worth the wait. I will be interested in adding any updates you guys produce for the book in the future. Thanks again. MB

Hello Alistair, you know, my English is not good and I think, I can't exactly say what I mean. But I will try. Have many many thanks for all. For many people it is not usual to be so kindly and frendly. I am absolute surprised. I wish i could do something for you. Thomas Germany
