4.0 out of 5 stars
A NICE BOOK TO OWN.,
This review is from: The Poster in History (Paperback)
This one sort of falls into the genre of "coffee table books." That being said, it is a well done coffee table book, and unlike so many others of this ilk, it actually has some interesting information to go along with the wonderful illustrations. I like Poster Art, always have and do enjoy having this book. The reason for the 4 star rating, is that I thought that with all the work that obviously went into this work, a wider variety could be given and the text expanded. It is a good book though and I do recommend it. If nothing else, it is quite interesting to just flip thought and enjoy the illustrations, or, if you like, just to set on your coffee table.
