I feature here images from Galeria d’Imatges, a Catalan group blog which consists of book hounds Galderich of Piscolabis Librorum, Carlos Hernandez of El Gabinet Negre, Leblansky of Enceneu els Llums, and Mironet du Bois, with guest contributions by Marco Fabrizio, El Pessebre Es Un Mon, and many others. Follow the links below the images to the original posts.

Also don’t miss their risque companions Galeria d’Imatges X and Piscolabis Librorum Maioris.
More to come as I research the illustrators and publications, and dig further into the remarkable archives these guys are building.
