Specialist Notes

First edition, with uncut files, of one of the most famous Futurist artists' books, the journal-book was meant to be read, leafed through and thrown away. & nbsp; The enigmatic title of this book should be read "Galore plus eighteen". The edition of 300 copies was largely destroyed with the flood of 1966, still lying unsold in the Vallecchi warehouses. Our specimen is no. 226.
