Scrapbook (second edition) by Glenn Bray
Glenn Bray is a renowned collector and archivist of underground comix, low and high art, and the creator of the critically acclaimed books LIBRARY and The Blighted Eye. Here he has arranged neuron-firing, free-associative found images as a series of two-page spreads that comment and reflect upon each other. By turns darkly funny, apocalyptic and blissful, SCRAP BOOK is a subconscious flow of words and pictures that no one was supposed to save or revere. You’ll see some famous names in the art and cartooning world here alongside anonymous tabloid clippings, forgotten advertisements and bizarre things that somehow wandered into the mainstream.
Previously only available in an extremely limited run, this 532-page 8 1/2” x 12” hardcover collection of found art has now been restored and restructured for this exclusive release. This new edition contains over 30 pages of new material and is printed on a fine lightly varnished paper, the new endpapers are on a thick paper stock and from a design created by Sampelman. This is a new copy as printed. Originally released to the public as a special limited offering.
