About This Item
[New York], Appearances Press, 1981. . First edition, first printing; 8vo; single quire, wire-stitched in white card, Haring designed wrappers printed in black. Unpaginated series of illustrations by Haring. Very light tide mark at the spine fold, but a particularly crisp copy of a book much given to discolouration.
The first printing (with the 1981 date) of Haring's rare first book which introduced all his best known icons including the crawling baby and the barking dog. A fabulous debut by that most quintessential 1980s figure.
