Dmitry Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 Too lazy to Amazon . A heads-up on a good coffee-table size book would help a lot. Quote
brownie Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 There was a book on DSM 'Jazz Graphics - David Stone Martin' by Manek Daver that was published in Japan back in 1991. I made the mistake of not getting a copy of the book when it was available. Got Manek Daver's second book 'Jazz Album Covers, The Rare and The Beautiful' after it came out several years later. Excellent book too! I have not been able to get a decently priced copy of the first one! Quote
Dmitry Posted February 21, 2005 Author Report Posted February 21, 2005 Just checked, the DSM book by Manek Daver is listed at $300 on Amazon. I have his "Jazz Album Covers" book [also a Japanese import]. It is indeed very good. Strange [not really] that an important American graphic artist doesn't have a decent folio dedicated to his work.

Man with the Golden Arm Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 a few years back Verve Japan released a box set of CD re-issues entitled "The David Stone Martin Collection" all in mini LP replicas. recall it was a beautiful little expensive box. Quote
