Norman Thelwell: This Desirable Plot, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The artist Norman Thelwell (1923-2004) was famous for his horse and pony cartoons, but his work was far more wide ranging. He focused his exceptional talent and humor on many diverse subjects, with his witty and wry observations providing amusement and sharp social comment.

'This Desirable Plot' is the artist's inimitable guide to navigating the property market and buying or selling a house. First published in 1970, it introduces prospective purchasers and sellers to estate agents' jargon, gives cautionary advice on country cottages and the perils of any projects involving conversion or renovation. From structural surveys to rising damp and dry rot to roof repairs, this is an entertaining look at finding the ideal home and moving up the property ladder.
