Book of the week
A technicolor animal kingdom - Charley Harper, an Illustrated Life
24 May 2010
I'm not sure if I would consider
Ammo Books Charley Harper, an Illustrated Life by Todd Oldham a book more for the parents or the kids.
Charley Harper - An Illustrated Life, showcases his illustrations that appeared from 1950-1975 in the Ford Times magazines, as well as in books such as the beloved “The Giant Golden Book of Biology” in 1961, “Betty Crocker’s Dinner for Two” in 1961, and “ The Animal Kingdom” in 1968, among many others.
A stunning collection of illustrations, the book is available in two options -
the original hardback edition for $209.97 NZD and a
smaller sized popular edition for $99.95 NZD, both from
Fishpond.
If the book is a little out of your price range, have a look at the Charley Harper
123's and
ABC's skinny versions which will both give you a little taste from this amazing artist - both are $23.95 NZD from
Fishpond.
