Hooray for Hollywood
I don’t think there is one person on the planet who doesn’t know what Hollywood is, or what cultural significance it has. It is a place where dreams are turned into reality, and reality turned into dreams, sometimes nightmares. This is just a pictorial blog about that place we all love and sometimes hate, or rather what is produced there The most visible symbol of the district is the Hollywood…

THE DWINDLEBERRY ZOO by G.E. Farrow (London/Glasgow/Dublin/Bombay: Blackie, 1909) Illustrated by Gordon Browne
G.E. Farrow was one of the masters of the Victorian fantasy genre. In this tale a boy eats a berry that reduces him in size, enabling him to have a number of encounters with various animals. The linked version was published in serial form in The Sunday Strand in 1902, and illustrated by Alan Wright.
