Description
The “De Rauw Sablon Strain” is the most sought after and most valuable racing pigeon strain in the world today. The most famous fanciers in the world today are scrambling to purchase whatever they can of this incredible family. The prices that this performance strain has achieved at public auction over the past three years, is nothing short of historic.
The National Results of these truly unique pigeons is unmatched by any other strain in history. This is the definitive work on what is without question the most important strain in the world today! A superb collaborative effort by Silvio Mattacchione, arguably Canada’s best known racing pigeon fancier, and Nikolaas Gyselbrecht, the founder of www.pipa.be.
Canadian author Silvio Mattacchione BA MA and Nikolaas Gyselbrecht , the founder of PIPA, combined their unique talents and jointly researched and co authored the history of the now internationally recognized and much sought after super strain universally known as “De Rauw–Sablon”.
Important interviews were held with all of the key personalities involved in this unique history, including the founders themselves. The result of their joint efforts is an exceptionally designed, visually stunning, incredible full color coffee table quality, hardcover book comprised of 156-pages outlining the origins, history and unparalleled success of the most important performance strain in the world today! Their joint participation was a unique experience that has resulted in an outstanding book of award winning quality and historical importance that definitely has worldwide appeal. We certainly live in interesting times and with the emergence of this powerful strain “De Rauw-Sablon” to the international market we will also be witness to the birth of a new group of powerful racing pigeon “Kings.”
The impact of the “De Rauw-Sablon” pigeons will be felt in all countries and at all levels from the race results at local club and combine levels to the great national races and the ever popular global one loft super races! Printed in Singapore by Silvio Mattacchione under the direction of Mr. Albert Tham a Master printer and graduate of the London School of printing. “Kingmaker” was printed on the most advanced “Heidelberg” sheet fed press available in the world today that features advanced quality control systems including inking, image registration control thus insuring the sharpest print reproduction available in the world today. This advanced Heidelberg prints both sides of the sheet at the same time with a total of 8-cylinder working at the same time similar to a newspaper web press, but totally different because this sheet -fed technology delivers an exponentially sharper dot/screen resolution.
This book that I have published makes a wonderful gift and is available for immediate delivery. Every copy ordered will be signed by the publisher Silvio Mattacchione.
