Media One Posted October 12, 2021 Author Share Posted October 12, 2021 4 hours ago, Schnitzel said: Would probably be an amazing book except for the fact i can't read German much. I've been through here a few time and got some great pics here from 1997. one thing I dig is the way they've laid out where on the walls the pieces were. see the lord and moniak pieces I got the feeling if I was to translate it It would be a great book Aber leider sind meine Deutschkenntnisse absoluter Müll. Have you tried using google translate, taking a photo of the text? It’s a bit of a pain in the arse and the translation isn’t always exact but it’s allowed me to read a few books that have otherwise sat unread with me just enjoying my the photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should hopefully have this saved for me when I’ve got a bit of disposable income. Part 1 of a 3 pet series. Can’t wait for the rest 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t end up going back over there to give it to them. Maybe it will happen some day but haven’t been in touch with them for years since I stopped using social media 😂. All bought at Half Price Books on the cheap. Wish I would have purchased a couple extra copies of the Futura book when they had a bunch years ago. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnitzel Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 this looks good. Not so fussed about pretty boxes etc. but the outtakes book. Hoo MAMA 800 never before seen photos by Martha Cooper. MARTHA COOPER SIGNED LIMITED EDITION TWO BOOK BOX SET This limited edition collection includes a special hardbound version of Spray Nation signed by Martha Cooper on vellum. Plus, the exclusive never-to-be-reprinted softbound Outtakes book, only available here. The Box Set weighs over seven pounds and has a magnetic closing flat, ribbon, both books, six postcards and an oversized poster, making this a must for any book collection. BEYOND THE STREETS worked closely with Cooper to assemble over 800 photos - many pulled from dozens of boxes of slides that had not been opened since they were first shot over 40 years ago. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
