About This Item
1964. First Edition. Softcover. Fine. Glossy printed plain white wraps with original glassine jacket. 5.55" x 7.05" An extraordinary copy of the second of Ruscha's iconic publications, in pristine condition. The glassine jacket is original and unscathed. The jackets exhibit some age-toning and offsetting from where it was part of a small stack of three Ruscha books which set on top of each other for some period of time as if in a display. The superior condition of this book cannot be overstated. From what can be pieced together, this book was part of a group which was likely sent to a New York Art Book store as part of a marketing campaign to sell the books, which originally did not sell well for Ruscha. This is a first edition. VARIOUS SMALL FIRES AND MILK is dated 1964 at the base of the title-page and is copyrighted 1964, and one of 400 copies printed by Anderson Ritchie & Simon, Los Angeles. An extraordinary copy.
