Title:Letter from Abigail Description: Dearest Grandfather, Lyra received your generous gift, and adores it. We, however, have no idea what it is, and Lyra will not explain it.

Title: ‘Gaslamps’ 2Description: Another ‘lamps on a wall’. I really like doing these, because I have to handpaint the light when it goes out of the original picture’s frame. Am I a geek? yes.

Title: Mechanic’s BadgeDescription: This popped into my head on the way home tonight. I had originally thought of it as a steampunk doctor’s badge (my robot is broken!
