:42:05
What do you think?
:42:08
They're genuine.
:42:11
The paper, the ink,
the printing press...
:42:15
Loose pages from first editions,
:42:17
torn out by some madman...
:42:21
Where did you say you got this?
:42:23
I didn't. Do you know
which works they're from?
:42:27
Some are obviously famous works.
:42:30
Among bibliophiles, of course.
:42:34
This for example
is undoubtedly a page
:42:38
from the Flemish edition
:42:40
of ''Ars Magna lucis et umbrae''
:42:43
by Atanasius Kircher.
:42:49
Shame about the stamp.
:42:51
-It's worth much less now.
-What are they about?
:42:54
They're almost all in Latin.
:42:56
Optical contraptions...
:42:59
Old superstitions about mirrors...
:43:03
What superstitions?
:43:05
Things like this.
:43:07
They call it the ''witch mirror''.
:43:10
If correctly invoked, supposedly
:43:14
the shadows of the dead
will appear on its surface.
:43:21
Why are they kids?
:43:22
I don't understand.
:43:24
The engravings.
:43:27
They're full of children.
:43:30
In hermetic philosophy
children represent initiation.
:43:35
In both cases their eyes are clean
:43:37
and they can see things that
to other humans
:43:41
remain hidden.
:43:43
Initiation.
:43:46
Interested in selling?
:43:51
You think this might interest
some collector?
:43:54
Well...
:43:55
It's obviously stolen material.
