September 2008

Free items! I have no new items for sale in September but I do have two additions to the Emporium which I am giving away free! I have a limited number of exhibition brochures from the National Library of Ireland's exhibition, Strangers to Citizens: the Irish in Europe, 1600-1800. This 20 page booklet includes useful commentary as well as reproductions of portrait paintings including one of William Archdeacon posing with an early Gaelic harp. Free with any book order over £10, while stocks last.

Also available are posters of Ann Heymann's Cruit go nÓr. Approx. A3 size, black, with golden lettering and full colour image of the Breac Maedóic (shrine of St Mogue). Free with any order over £20, while stocks last.

Please ask for either the NLI Exhibition booklet, or the Cruit go nÓr poster, when placing your order.

Looking for a printable catalogue? If you'd like me to post you a paper copy, let me know!

How to order

There are two ways to order items from the emporium; I don't mind which you use.
1. select the appropriate postage and click "add to cart". You can add lots of different items if you wish. Then click to go to the checkout and pay online with your credit or debit card. Postage is automatically calculated and you will probably pay a wee bit over the odds for it but that is the price of convenience.

2. Phone me up or send an email (contact details below) and ask me whether what you want is in stock, or can be obtained. This works almost as quickly as using the shopping cart; also it works just as well for secondhand items and even ones I have not yet managed to get in stock. I'll give you a total price to pay (postage charged at cost) and you can post me a cheque (UK pounds sterling, drawn on a UK bank, payable to "Early Gaelic Harp Info"), or send money via PayPal/credit card.

If there is an item you are looking for but which is not listed here, let me know - I may well be able to find it for you.

Please ask to be put on the mailing list, to be sent details of new additions to the stock.

Returns: If the item is not as described, please return for a full refund including all postage.
