The Good Word - a sad goodbye

With the upcoming closing down of TVNZ7 there is, sadly, no future for the tv book programme The Good Word so the set is being sold. If I had a barn I would buy it !

The set for the television literary series, The Good Word was designed as an art piece, mixing graffiti with images, plus the autographs of the many guests who have appeared on the show over its four series on TVNZ 7. The sealed MDF kitset single set flats were created by artist Virginia Leonard using Indian ink, charcoal, various paints and graphite pencil mediums.
