Betty Tompkins: Illuminations. 1986, first edition. Signed in pencil on the colophon; artist's proof aside from the edition of 100. Softcover, stringbound wraps, 10 x 8.5 inches. A stunning artist's book done in the style of an illuminated medieval manuscript, featuring 12 brilliant silkscreen prints (including the front cover and table of contents). Printed at the Lower East Side Printshop and published by Appearances Press, both in New York City. A copy of this book is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). Very Good condition: a fresh, clean and well-preserved copy; wraps just starting to tear a tiny bit around the string binding, but still strong and secure; other very minor signs of age.
