I was going to post this in the "Confessions of a Crack Addict" thread, but figured Timely geeks would get more utils out of this than just a good ol' fashioned crackhead. :baiting:

 

It was an absolute joy going through this book the other night after I freed it from its synthetic coffin to breathe a little. (Sorry Alan, I just couldn't wait.) It was like sipping a nice glass of scotch. Enjoy!:

If you've never seen it, this is what the Olshevsky/Chicago code looks like. It is usually about a third of the way in, on the inside margin:

I thought this was a really cool visual when I was flipping through this book:

Stunning copy. I love the way the light blue sky makes the rest of the colors pop off the book. Great pick up!!

What was the grade on this book?

 

8.5, one grader gave it a 9.0. But it was one of those books that got whacked for a couple of non-color breaking corner creases. I guarantee it could be pressed into a 9.2 or, who knows, maybe more. Ask me if I would ever do that. :mad: (apologies for using the "P" word in the GA section)

Could you add me to the long list of folks who'd like a crack at that book when it comes time to sell? :wishluck:

me too ken, but what a waste to use that sky technique on this book when the contrast could have been employed on a world's finest rickshaw, tug-of-war or unicycle cover.
