See the description below from the dustwrapper flaps. Contrary to what you will read on other booksellers’ entries on the Website that is Intent on World Domination, this is not the ‘first edition thus’. This is a reprint of a limited and numbered edition signed by the artist published the previous year.

Long out of print.
