4to, 336pp. Stiff printed wraps as issued. One of 1000 copies. First

Larry Clark's best book, and one of his toughest to find, especially in a good condition. No text. Intense portraits and scenarios of violence, masculinity, male sexuality, youth and slacker culture, managing to be both beautiful and extreme in equal measure.

Unpaginated (ca 52pp). Numerous Black & White plates. Softcover.. Book: Near Fine. .
Wonderful little book from Fischer who is better know for his work on gay semiotics (what colour hankerchief goes in what pocket etc.). Here he devoted his talents to a rather cruisy bench on 18th street in San Francisco's gay district (The Castro) for a period of 24 hours, observing who's around and what they're doing. Lovely conceptual project with nice text and super images. Inscribed by Fischer in 1979.
