It was cheap! I love this artist so pretty much anything on or about him is not that disappointing to me, but there's better books on him out there for sure. On the other hand, If you are familiar w/ his work, this book is nice to add to yr collection. There's essays written by the artist himself and lots of pictures (however most are not the best quality of photos.) Seller was good!
