London: Bloomsbury Natural History, 2012. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. A wonderful copy of the first volume in the Gonzovation Trilogy. Signed by Ceri Levy, who provides the commentary, and by the artist, Ralph Steadman with accompanying splatter and doodle. Orange-coloured cloth with silver-gilt decoration and titles to the upper cover. Unpaginated, a very large and heavy book weighing in at 2 Kilos approx. In beautiful, unread condition, creakingly tight, minor bump to top corner of the upper cover. The dustjacket is unclipped and has a few trivial creases/rubs around the edges but is otherwise in nice, clean condition. The front flap caught a splash of the artist's splatter at signing and bears, therefore, a small dark spot. Stunningly illustrated, an absolute masterpiece.

(The author) focuses on the historical development of Japanese film, illustrated by a series of typical Japanese film posters. She details an industry and an art form shaped by the competing and merging forces of traditional culture and of economic and technological innovation."
