I've had a copy of this book for many years. Some of the pages are now dogearred. It's a good book to have but there are some misprints.

It looks to be a first edition from 1969, thus mine being a later edition from the nineties. Unfortunately this is not of any high value, but nevertheless a great reference for artistic renderings of compositions new and old for the times. Congratulations on your purchase!

It caused controversy in the day due to it's many images of nudity in there. I think it was the Italian pressing that removed them all from their edition.

But the original copy is nice to own but value-wise isn't that high I'm afraid.
