Beschreibung

One continuous accordion-fold page composed of glued paper segments extending to 296 ½" in length housed in a white paper and silver Mylar-over-cardboard slipcase. "Every Building on the Sunset Strip" is Ed Ruscha's innovative 1966 photographic study that pictures sequentially each architectural facade on both the North and South sides of the fabled Sunset Strip from 8101 - the still extant Jaguar dealership - to 9156 - the late, great Schwab's Pharmacy. Pandora's Box lives! A bright white, most handsome example of the 1970 second printing (entry B4 in Siri Engberg's "Edward Ruscha: Editions 1959-1999", and whose 1966 edition is cited on pages 142-143 of Martin Parr and Gerry Badger's "The Photobook: A History Volume I", pages 198-199 of The Hasselblad Center's "The Open Book", and pages 182-185 of "The Book of 101 Books") limited to five thousand unnumbered copies additionally BOLDLY SIGNED "Ed Ruscha" in black ink across the top of the slipcase showing a thin margin of adhesive transfer along the front and back of the covers at the spine as is typical of this printing. The slipcase's silver mylar overlay is shiny but lightly scuffed, there is some trivial soiling along the top and bottom edges, and some chipping and separations to the white paper covering at some of the corners of the joints. The publisher's exceedingly fragile and uncommon unprinted white paper wraparound band issued only with the second edition is laid in. It has been priced accordingly.
