Bruce Weber / The Andy Book

Untitled Document
Bruce Weber. The Andy Book.

Weber, Bruce; Minsker, Andy. The Andy Book. Tokyo: Doeisha, 1987. First Edition. 4to, Unpaginated. French fold wraps as issued. Numerous Black & White plates. Text in English, with Japanese translation booklet laid in. A beautiful copy with just the tiniest amount shelfwear to corners and edges. More images available on request. Near Fine. Softcover.

One of the great Weber books. His profile of smalltown hero and featherwight champion Andy Minsker (who also modelled for Calvin Klein and things) somehow sums up everything he does i.e. casual male glamour. The pictures and brilliant, and the book is an excellent complete work.
