BOOK YOUR PHOTO SESSION
THE BEAUTY OF AN IMMORTAL PHOTOGRAPHY

What our ancestors, or the cowboys and Indians in the old West had done to them by photographers with their wooden view cameras and magnesium blasters, is something that will be possible to experience in Gentile County.

Photographers specializing in the ancient wet collodion technique of the Umbrian group “Like Once Upon a Time”, Alessio Vissani and Simone Frascarelli, will be present during the three days to create portraits with the ancient technique of 1851: a total experience, a true journey through time in which you can take home a unique memory, your photograph on an iron plate with one of the houses of the Gentile county in the background.

To make the work of the two photographers easier, since the timing of these portraits is quite long (with the famous poses lasting several seconds), it is possible to book your photo session now, both for group photos and single photos.

DEED OF CONTRACT
CONDITIONS OF ENGAGEMENT

In the book and in the film, the most famous halfling in the shire finds himself having to sign a burglar's contract drawn up by the Dwarves with a thousand footnotes and paragraphs. You can find the reproduction of this contract, in English, everywhere, but this one you see was hand-written by one of the loyal "citizens" of our project, in Italian and with references to the Journey that the contea Gentile is undertaking: the Construction and the Birth of a place out of the ordinary!

This document can be filled in with the type of trade or service you can offer for the creation of the contea Gentile!

Handmade paper, custom font, pages cut out and sewn by hand with string and sealed with hot wax.

If you're curious, find out more about the Journey to Middle Earth here!

This document is not necessarily widely or legally recognized by states friend or foe, neighboring or distant, real or imagined. It has recognized and guaranteed validity only within the territories of the contea Gentile.

OFFICIAL COIN
OF LA CONTEA GENTILE

Minted in 2022, it depicts the symbol of the shire on one side, the Acorn. While on the other side the face of the nicest mayor there is, Nicolas Gentile. This coin was created by one of the loyal "citizens" of the county project, to support and grow it.

Attention: obviously this currency has no legal value in Italy or other countries (perhaps only in imaginary ones). This is a gadget/souvenir from La contea Gentile. Certainly more emotionally valuable than other currencies in circulation in the world!

OFFICIAL PASSPORT
OF LA CONTEA GENTILE

Always carry the Official Passport of LA CONTEA GENTILE with you! This is the most excellent identification document: every self-respecting resident of La contea Gentile, presumed or current never leaves home without it! This passport was created by one of the loyal "citizens" of the shire project, in support and growth of it.

Fill it out with the information, characteristics and details that distinguish you: gender, species, class, hair, eyes, build, particular brands and much more!
