5.0 out of 5 stars First Edition of the Atrocity Exhibition, April 17, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Love and Napalm: Export U.S.A (Hardcover)

FYI, this is the original Vietnam-era name of "The Atrocity Exhibition," which remains widely available. The first edition hardback was published in a wonderfully lurid cover consisting, I believe,of a skull, painted in a flower-power motif, set against a background of flames. Suitably enough, I found my first edition in a used book shack in a nameless stripmall somewhere in Orange County. I think I paid $4.95, and was appalled at the asking price
