signed first edition
1975
by [TINGUELY, Jean]. HULTÉN, K.G. Pontus
Boston: New York Graphic Society, 1975. Boards lightly discolored, overall near fine with a lock and handle, to mimic a briefcase.. First American Edition, number B-45 from an edition of 250 copies (an additional 250 "A" copies were released for the British Thames & Hudson edition). Quarto in lockable boards with a handle. With a perforated SIGNED mechanical "meta-matic" drawing by Tinguely bound-in. Elaborately produced book, with many fold outs and bound in sheets of printed vellum. Aptly captures Tinguely's chaotic creative practice.
