Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 1st Edition prop replica

[Marcotl]

Hello, I'm thinking about working on my own replica of the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book prop, do you guys have any good reference pictures? I'm specially interested in the inside pages, at least the inside title page was designed becase it can be seen in some pictures. I'm also sharing the ones I have in case they are usefull to anyone else.

If you have any of these in a better resolution it would be great, also let me know if you can distinguish what the full text in the inside title page is, also the pattern in the endpapers, many graphics in the rest of the book seem to be taken from the cover design, but I cannot see what part they used in the endpapers.

Thanks!

This isn't mine (after a million messages asking me if I make these things) but wanted to quote a link to another thread to be helpful
but unfortunately it no longer goes anywhere??

Would you consider getting these printed and doing a run? I’d be interested in a screen accurate copy.

I do have a version without the text because I am still working on the designs of the beasts but I did a run of agendas and they look like this

for the inside i have the work in progress for all the illustrations like this but I think it will be hard to get all the creatures as accurate as possible since there are some that does not have any real image yet like the sphynx. but this is what I have its in Spanish but i will do a eng version too

 

[LuisDurden]

after this i believe i will have to work faster

I think I was able to finally find out what the cover has, i am not really sure if it has the elder wand or the wand from newt but the deers at the botton and everything else is there what do you think?

I feel confident that it just a line below Newt's name, rather than a wand. And for the deers, those are actually Bowtruckles, I just cannot find the reference right now.
