np, profusely illustrated in b&w. Designed by Patricia Moritz. In a protective clear acetate dustwrapper. This is the engaging catalogue cum artist's book published in conjunction with a 2001 Works on Paper, Inc. exhibition of drawings from Jeremy Blake's "The Fourty (sic) Million Dollar Beatnik" project. It takes the form of a miniature (6 � x 5 �") screenplay - down to the green card covers with brass brad binding - reproducing the artist's whimsical texts and images that are reminiscent of a high school journal along with brief essays by Tim Griffin and Dike Blair. A handsome example of this exceedingly uncommon item - only three copies are currently cited in OCLC WorldCat - limited to five hundred unnumbered copies SIGNED "Jeremy Blake / Cell 1-310-980-****" in blue ink on the title page showing some very light wear and soiling to the covers. The artist died with only three monographic titles having been published on his work, and this is the first and only copy we have seen bearing his signature.
