About This Item
Atglen, PA: Schiffer Publishing, 2002. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. A book devoted to 19 women Lowbrow artists.
160 pages. First edition (first printing). A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. This copy is inscribed by one of the contributors, Suzanne Chorna Williams, who is really more of an abstract and conceptual artist than a Lowbrow / pinup artist. Laid in to this copy is a postcard from Williams to the recipient of the book. She does suggest her appreciation of the grotesque in art. The postcard is an original photograph by Williams mounted on another postcard. The image is titled, "gopher" and shows a dead gopher on a paper plate. Her note also reads in part, "Was a pleasure to meat your family..."
The postcard is signed "Suzanne and Bob," Bob being her husband, the artist Robert "Robt." Williams, one of the original Zap Comix artists.
