About This Item
Originally published in a limited edition in 1970, a first trade edition followed in 1980. Since then, Phillips has continued to revise and add to the book over the decades and he issued more than six editions (each revised) during his lifetime. This, the "third revised edition" (i.e. fourth overall) includes 40 new pages and like most of the revised editions was also issued in a deluxe limited edition, as here. The book remains a beloved classic - arguably the most popular and enduring book of its kind - and these deluxe editions remain scarce on the marketplace. A beautiful copy of a major artist's book. Original full yellow cloth. In original unclipped (no price) color pictorial jacket. [8], 368, [8] pages. Limited edition, one of 175 copies signed by Phillips, this #69. Additionally loosely laid in are two prints from the book, each also numbered 69 from an edition of 175 and both signed by Phillips - as issued. Touch of trace sunning to spine. Else bright, sharp, and clean overall.
