Women of Hawai'i
OH. MY. GAWD!!! WOO! As you may or not know, I have been sorting through boxes of books that have been collected by me and fam over the last decade or two, and I am desperately trying to thin the collection. I come across THIS HUGE BEAST of a book. oof... Grumble... how am I gonna fit this in mah library...complain... it's so big... moan. So, after all that, I looks it up after looking and reading it a bit; it's huge, got it's own case and everything. I like Giger and his work, I love Alien.
But, this is what I find...
GR Review: "H. R. Giger, Oscar-winning designer of the hit movie Alien and widely considered the world's finest dark fantasy artist, redefined edgy, contemporary art starting in the 1980s with his biomorphic creatures inhabiting gorgeously grim dystopias. His visionary art is unmistakable.", and: "This massive, oversized volume, limited to just 300 copies worldwide, ... The book is bound in black leather, with a black cloth slipcase ' all embossed in gold foil. It includes a signed and numbered print of one of Giger's drawings, which can be removed and framed." It has a foreword, as well, by Giger fan, Harlan Ellison.
I think I may have a limited edition book! I guess I have to take it to a bookstore and find out more, but needless to say, looking and reading this has been a priceless gem! WOO!
I was wondering what you guys would do and what you thought that it should be worth!?!!
