Illustrated with photographs by Ken Price and Larry Bell showing the process of Ruscha and Bengston designing their business cards, and the "presentation dinner" of the finished products in Beverly Hills. 32 pages. Tall slim 8vo, wood-grained card stock covers bound with a leather thong, and with an original polaroid snapshot of the authors affixed to the front cover with mounting corners. Los Angeles: Privately printed, (1968). First edition. Light wear at corners, but still a very good(+) copy with intact leather and finished business cards stapled onto the final page. Boldly signed by Ruscha across the cover. An uncommon artist's book - one of the more difficult Ruscha items to obtain. One of 1000 unique copies produced. -- The Open Book, 198-201.
