	Hi, Bummer ... I wanted to get this book to read and review, and such a special artist deserves all the recognition he could muster ... but sadly, the cost is out of my league being retired and on a very limited income ... Would love to review it, but sorry ... can't help this as much as I would like to ... loved a lot of his work with many folks over the years.
