"Your specifications were vague beyond the initials, sir," said Garrud, reluctantly unfolding the chamois, proffering his open palm in the shop's low light. "The scroll-work waxed delicate as I tooled it—why, there's no telling. I'd not wreck symmetry for the sake of a change, surely you—"

"Delicacy is much undervalued by some," Aziraphale murmured, eyes widening as he took in the piece. "One might take the C for a B, but the art with which you've interlocked these capitals requires a deft touch." He held out his hands, accepting the commission. "With hands such as yours, no small feat."

I’m doing the @crownofthornspod DTiYS to celebrate Good Omens 30th birthday ! Thank you @neil-gaiman for bringing so much positivity into my life with this book, amongst many other ones!

Behold the one (1) (old, only and now yellowish) copie of the novel I ever possessed, brought by @ladamedulag​ in 2009. I love that cosmic lottery decided we were both Aziraphale persons.

Though I love it, I always found the portrait on this cover a bit too young, thin and hip for matching with my vision of the character. Aziraphale reminds me more of a kind middle-aged literature teacher clad in tweed with wild unkept hair, round glasses and scone crumbs stuck in his beard.
