PictureBox Book and Comic Sale

Paper Rad

PictureBox, a fine Brooklyn-based book publisher who I’m currently working with, is holding a sale on nearly every item on their website. The sale lasts through February 8 and there’s some real bargains to be had. For example, their huge two-volume 688-page retrospective of Pee-Wee’s Playhouse production designer Gary Panter, which was published last year at $95, is currently only $30 through their website. Overspray: Riding High with the Kings of California Airbrush Art is a beautifully-produced look at West Coast airbrush culture in the 1970s and shows how it entered the mainstream advertising and film through artists like Peter Lloyd who created airbrush art for Tron. That book which retails at $50 is available for only $20. Also, pick up Paper Rad and Michel Gondry books for $7, Mark Newgarden’s Cheap Laffs for $6, and lots of quality art/indie comics at fire sale prices. Every order also ships with a FREE copy of Paper Rad’s DVD Problem Solvers.

Thanks for the tip, Amid! I’ve been looking for an excuse to throw down some $$ on that Panter Book. You just gave me “permission”. I hope my bookshelf is strong enough to support its GIRTH.

YES that Panter set will be mine now. Good deal.

Are these fire sale prices an economic indicator that the John K book may not be forthcoming, due to the downturn in boutique publishing? Just sayin’.
