Hanegal. Gallisk poesialbum med illuminationer af J.V. Martin og tegninger af digteren

Martin, J. V. Nash, Jorgen

Paris. Edition Internationale Situationniste. 1961
Sold
A striking collaborative work by the poet Jorgen Nash and illustrator J.V. Martin.

One of 750 numbered examples signed by Nash and Martin.

Both Nash and Martin were major actors in the Situationist movement at the time of this publication and the hard-edged polemic of the work underscores this.

A very good example with a slight bump to the upper forecorner of the book and minor wear to the extremities of the black slipcase; both internal protecting cards are still present - these are usually missing from most copies - and the chicken-wire is in perfect condition.
pp. (33). 4to. (275 x 210 mm). Colour lithographed illustrations throughout by Martin. Publisher's yellow paper-covered boards with printed black design on front board. Original black hand-painted slipcase, with title stencilled in white. Overlay of small-gauge chicken wire wrapped around slipcase as designed.
