Als ode aan de rijke geschiedenis van de Handelsbeurs van Antwerpen, en ter gelegenheid van de opening van het vernieuwde gebouw, schreef de Antwerpse stadsgids Tanguy Ottomer een boek, in samenwerking met Handelsbeurs Antwerpen nv. 

In het boek van Tanguy Ottomer kom je alles te weten over de geschiedenis van de Handelsbeurs. Over de beursactiviteiten die er plaatsvonden tussen 1531 en 1997 (met een aantal pauzes), over de twee branden die het gebouw in de as legden, over de architecten van de eerste en de tweede Beurs, over de gebruikers die er hun intrek namen (zoals het Sint-Lucasgilde) en de bezoekers die er over de vloer kwamen (zoals Winston Churchill).

Behalve over de geschiedenis lees je in dit boek over de bijzondere architectuur van de Handels- en de Schippersbeurs, over het indrukwekkende renovatieproces, en over de mooie toekomst die de site te wachten staat als publieke ontmoetingsruimte, evenementenlocatie, restaurant en hotel.

Al deze verhalen over de ‘moeder van alle beurzen’ worden rijkelijk geïllustreerd met archieffoto’s, bijvoorbeeld uit het FelixArchief van de stad Antwerpen maar ook uniek materiaal uit privécollecties, en met nieuw beeldmateriaal. Ze tonen een adembenemend mooie historische parel die straalt als nooit tevoren.

BeroepsAntwerpenaar Tanguy Ottomer (1981) heeft zijn bedrijf BeroepsBelg uitgebouwd tot een succesvolle gidsenwerking die verschillende originele stadswandelingen aanbiedt. Zijn eigenzinnige, enthousiaste en spontane aanpak leverde hem veel lof op, onder andere van The New York Times, The Financial Times en CNN, dat Tanguy uitriep tot 'one of 7 savviest tour guides in the world'. Hij werd door Toerisme Vlaanderen uitgeroepen tot beste toeristische ambassadeur van Vlaanderen. Hij is auteur van verschillende boeken over de geschiedenis van Antwerpen.

Bij Luster verschenen van zijn hand de titels ’t Stad van Vroeger, Uitgaan in ’t Stad van Vroeger, Ondernemen in ’t Stad van Vroeger, Winkelen in't Stad van Vroeger, Time Machine - Antwerpen, Time Machine - Gent en Time Machine - Brussels. Hij is ook de auteur van Elixir d'Anvers. Het verhaal en Antwerpen Zwart/Wit.

    Alligator chew toy
    Color: purple, Color: purple
    Excellent for heavy duty chewing. Good size for medium size (15-25lbs.). An instant hit with my dog. Very durable. I feel it is safe for my dog to have unsupervised. I rate this HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

    Held Up Better Than Most for My Aggressive Chewer
    Color: purple, Color: purple
    I have to give the Fuufome Dog Chew Toy for Aggressive Chewers a solid 3 out of 5 stars. I have a very high-energy Lab mix named Boone who is an extremely aggressive chewer. Finding toys that last in our house is nearly impossible. This is actually his second toy like this - the first one is currently in my yard in three different pieces. While I don’t believe this toy was advertised as indestructible, I still hoped it would fully survive Boone’s chewing. Some parts have held up well, which is more than I can say for many other toys we’ve tried. However, he was still able to do some noticeable damage to the rubber portion after consistent use. To be fair, it did last longer than most toys we’ve purchased, which says a lot considering how tough Boone is on his things. For moderate chewers, I think this would hold up quite well. For truly aggressive chewers like mine, it’s tougher than average but still may show wear over time.

    Best toy for heavy chewers
    Color: Green
    My dog is an aggressive chewer and I have trouble finding toys that last longer than 5 minutes before being so destroyed it is no longer safe to let him keep it. He loves this toy and naws on it for hours daily. Yes, it has multiple chew marks, but it is still intact completely. No little pieces have been chewed off. I highly recommend this toy for any dog especially those who destroy every toy in seconds like mine does.

    NOT Indestructible and a Nylon Product (NOT A CHEW TOY)
    Color: Green, Color: Green
    I gave this dog toy 2-stars based on my dog toy rating system (DTRS) for “Bruce” the Green Alligator! Unfortunately, I didn’t notice in the fine print of the product description on the website that this toy consisted of Nylon. If I noticed that description, I would’ve never purchased this product. Please do your own research on Nylon wrt teeth. I wasn’t impressed with the toy construction out of the box. The nylon head and tail sandwich the rubber body with soft rubber spines on Bruce’s back for easy gripping. This is not an “Indestructible” dog toy. Safety (1-rating): 1. I was always concerned about my dog’s teeth possibly cracking while he was chewing on Bruce’s Nylon ends. Thankfully, his teeth were fine throughout the use of this toy. 2. The Nylon came off in small pieces after a few hours and continued for the life of the toy; see picture. I never intended for my dog to swallow pieces of Nylon. 3. Bruce’s rubber rear end is where most of the damage occurred, as my dog was tearing off pieces of rubber and spines, which he thankfully passed through his system over a period of 2-3 days after I threw Bruce away; see picture. 4. The chewed-up Nylon ends were very hard, rough, sharp and pointy. There were occasions where I noticed my dog’s gums were bleeding as a result of chewing this toy. 5. Bruce is big enough not to swallow in its entirety, which is why I’m giving this a 1-rating for safety. 6. This is a molded product and not a plush product. Durability (2-rating): 1. It took my dog 1 to 2-weeks to get the toy in the shape that is shown on the posted photos. 2. The Nylon was immediately being scratched and scraped apart on day-1. Then I noticed pieces of Nylon coming off of Bruce after 3-4 days. 3. The rubber was immediately being punctured with small divots around the body on day-1. I noticed over the next couple of days that my dog was focusing on the rear end and trying to pull the rubber off the Nylon tail. 4. The rubber started coming off more quickly after 1-week, until I removed it all together. Squeaker (N/A): 1. Bruce has no squeaker. Fatality (2-rating): 1. Bruce had a longer life than most of my dog’s toys, but then again, I expected this to last much longer as the seller claims it is “Indestructible”, which it is not. 2. I tried filing off some of Bruce’s chewed up Nylon ends to smooth them out for more chew time, but came to my senses and just threw him away for safety concerns only. In conclusion, “Bruce” the Green Alligator should not be given as a chew toy, but more as a fetch toy, unless you want your dog to digest the Nylon and rubber materials.

    This has been a challenge for my extreme chewer! The toy is winning
    Color: Green
    Indestructible? Not for my pitbull. Except on this toy. She has slowly chewed some of the outer portion on the backside, but it still has a lot of gnawing time left. This is her go-to toy now. she carries it nearly everywhere. She loves it. I am amazed at how well it is holding up. Within minutes, hours or a few days, the other "indestructible" toys I've purchased, never survived as described. This is a heavy toy! Not for the weak! I cannot stress enough the extreme chewer my dog is. Yet, I can see this toy lasting months. It won't be pretty then but it will most likely still be a favorite chew toy. I'm glad I found this and will be buying more. FYI's... 1) Chewability-5 stars 2) Softness-1 star, it's solid but chewable, 3) Bounce-0 stars, No bounce, it's heavy!, Playability- 5 stars. My dog plays with it, lets it lay with her when resting. Nearly always within her reach. She sleeps with it! That's love.
