About this Item

New, and unopened. See scans and description. San Francisco: Last Gasp. 2018. All contents originally published as issues of High Fructose Magazine (OuchFactory YumClub., Richmond, CA). Hi-Fructose Collected Edition, Volume 4, 2018. Cover art by Kazuki Takamatsui. One of 2500 Produced. Brand squeaky new, unopened, and absolutely immaculate in every way. The Gary Taxali Pin - separately included with some, but apparently not all, of the 2500 copies produced - is included here. Book itself - 316 pp. long - expands the sold-out Hi-Fructose issues 13-16 and includes special gatefolds featuring Sylvia Ji and Kate McDowell, in addition to the goodies mentioned in the attached screen capture from their website. An almost indescribably rich collection of contemporary art from the most original contemporary artists, in their sundry styles, from issues of Hi-Fructose - with the accompanying text, of course. H-F is one of just a handful of publications I've ever seen which, in literal terms, deserves a high-resolution scan here of every page. Not possible, of course. Already collectible, and will continue to become more so. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box, of course - not a bag. L3.
