Lladro Privilege Mag Lot

SECOND LLADR PAPER LOT - PRIVILEGE MAGAZINES 2001 THROUGH 2004, EXPRESSIONS OF LOVE AND NATIVITY BROCHURES, COLLECTOR SOCIETY NEWSLETTERS, AND A COLLECTOR'S WORKING FILE FOLDER WITH RECEIPTS AND HANDWRITTEN LISTS A second and different Lladr paper accumulation from the same collection, this one built around the glossy LLADR PRIVILEGE magazine run and a working manila file folder hand-labeled in ink "Lladro." The magazine stack includes LLADR PRIVILEGE - IMAGES OF YESTERDAY with a flower-cart figurine cover, and further issues whose spines are printed with the dates 1/2002, 3/2001, 1/2003, 2/2003, 1/2004, and additional partly obscured numbers, all with the deep full-page factory photography Lladr used for its premium members. Alongside them are dealer and society brochures including EXPRESSIONS OF LOVE, a LLADR NATIVITIES catalog page describing the Large Nativity, the Small Nativity, and the Gres Nativity with the complimentary wooden stable offer, a LLADR PRIVILEGE - EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION SEPTEMBER 2001 booklet, a Lladr Gifts & Home Dcor catalog, THE IMAGINARY CIRCUS society piece with its purple-and-gold border, and a "This Loving Puppy Wants To Come Home With You" promotional mailer. The manila folder holds the paperwork side of a collection: printed order and invoice forms, a blank PRIVILEGE GOLD - SUBSCRIPTION FORM, and handwritten notes and inventory lists in ballpoint on lined and ruled paper. There is also a Lladr Collectors Society newsletter carrying a "Personal Profile: Hugh Robinson, Collector Society Director" feature. For a dealer, appraiser, or collector, the value here is in the dated magazine run and the paperwork trail; for a paper-ephemera buyer, it is a decade of well-photographed marketing material. Bidders should also review the other two Lladr paper lots offered in this sale, since the three are complementary rather than duplicative. Note this is a used working file, sold uncounted and uncollated, with wear, curling, and toning as detailed below. Sold as a lot of all printed material and paperwork pictured. Description Lladr Privilege magazines: large glossy softcover magazines. The top cover photographed reads "LLADR PRIVILEGE - images of yesterday" with "LLADR" at the foot and a small date code at the upper right, over a color photograph of a flower-seller figurine with a rose-laden cart. Spine imprints legible in the stacked photographs read 1/2002, 3/2001, 1/2003, 2/2003, 1/2004, and at least two further partly obscured date codes. Interior magazine pages photographed: a full-page plate of a lamplighter figurine against a night streetscape; a two-vase plate captioned "HERONS' REALM VASE (35 x 17 cm, 14" x 6 3/4")" and "HERONS' REALM COVERED VASE (30 x 17 cm, 12" x 6 3/4")" with a LLADR PRIVILEGE page footer; and an editorial spread combining a garden feature captioned "Anglesey Abbey Garden in Cambridgeshire, England" with an art column on the Art Institute of Chicago exhibition "Van Gogh and Gauguin: The Studio of the South," noting the show ran from September 22 and was open through January 13.
