I bought this big primarily because I was interested in a Lichtenstein PRINTS book. There are better books that take a retrospective look at Roy's career that go into much more depth. For fans interested in his prints, the main thing I wanted to see were the actual prints. Meaning I want to see actual prints that were exhibited for the exhibition this catalog is based on. We should be able to see the print margins and edges for each piece. Instead for most of the prints you only see the image (no margins or print edges and often no signature or numbering). So this becomes a small retrospective of Lichtenstein images instead of a catalog of his actual prints. The book is a missed opportunity and not recommended for those looking for a good reference of Lichtenstein prints.
