conditions. features several sections like
"unpublished works", "black & white", "color", a previously
unpublished 6-page story titled "nubinlove" and a list of manara's
works up to 1984. all text is in italian, english and french.
this is the second printing of this long out
of print volume published by glamour international in 1984. The first
printing was signed and numbered (1000 copies) by manara himself and the only copy I've
seen changing hands, other than the one I've sold, in the last
five years went for the equivalent of $425 at a lucca comics convention. As far as I know,
italian and french collectors (who purchased about 99% of the 1st printing) are holding
onto their copies very jealously. $50 + shipping. |
