This is BINDING BRILLIANCE: ARTISTIC UTILITY in the reproduction of UTILITY-PRODUCED ART!

My first impression after picking up and examining this slick and sturdy slab of book was how appropriate the manufacturing is for what it reprints: This is BINDING BRILLIANCE: ARTISTIC UTILITY for UTILITY-PRODUCED ART! The art inside, when first printed, was not made to live on a bookshelf- it was to be for repeated practical use in ANY range of settings, the whole way up to !!!BODY PARTS ARE SMEARING ACROSS THE PAGES BUT AT LEAST THEY'RE WIPING OFF THE MORTAR DUST!!! so the toughness and cornerlessness of this collection is insightful! I'm using one of my favorite trademarked terms "Muscle Bound" to describe it even thought this is not *that company's* work because it is, thanks to them, the words that comes to mind immediately in witness to any book whose sturdiness impresses me. *= Owned and executed exceptionally by MUSCLE BOUND BINDERY of Minneapolis, MN -StrictlySequential (goodreads)
