Merchandise

To my surprise, there is actually 'Chesterton merchandise' around: fans of Chesterton can actually get quite some Chesterton 'objects' online. A few weeks ago, I had already noticed that zazzle.com has dozens of Chesterton items (mainly t-shirts, mugs and refrigerator magnets), most with beautiful quotes (since Chesterton is very, very quotable).
Now recently, the Chesterton Society opened its own online store, mainly featuring books (as it should, in my opinion). To my surprise, there are quite some Chesterton dvd's: not only the 'Father Brown' series and a play by Chesterton, but also five seasons of 'The apostle of common sense', a series of which I had never heard (though I did see a book with that title).
The merchandise is quite attractive; I will not, however, buy much at the moment. Before I read (and see) about Chesterton, I really want to read his own words. A nice mouse pad, as a reminder of my quest this year, might be enough for the moment.
