Nothing is out of place in <i>Vernacular Drawings</i>: there are portraits of R. Crumb and Django Reinhardt and an image of a glorious 1920's ballroom scene is followed by a dilapidated, circa 2000 industrial building. A bold portrait of a North American Indian is preceded by another of a Spanish matador. Seth's illustrations have been seen by millions throughout North America in publications such as <i>The New York Times,</i> <i>Forbes</i>, and<i> The Washington Post</i>, and he is best known as a cartoonist from his series Palooka-Ville and his award-winning book, <i>It's A Good Life, If You Don't Weaken</i>. Available exclusively in this cloth-bound edition, <i>Vernacular Drawings</i> is Seth's first "non-comics" collection, a lavish, full-color art book that will appeal to aesthetes everywhere. <br></div> 421881 12 2001 Vernacular Drawings total:21|5:2|4:0|3:0|2:0|1:0| 21 80 25 2 3 0 false false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Mar 23 21:02:06 -0700 2007 Sun Sep 23 18:51:11 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Nov 15 20:53:01 -0800 2007 Thu Nov 15 20:53:52 -0800 2007 0 0 false false Mon Nov 30 09:44:36 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 30 09:44:36 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Tue Nov 03 14:20:55 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 03 14:20:55 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Oct 23 10:43:57 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 23 10:43:57 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Oct 09 20:14:07 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 09 20:14:07 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Aug 17 22:58:33 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 17 22:58:33 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Jun 17 10:12:39 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 17 10:12:39 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Fri Jun 05 08:49:02 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 05 08:49:02 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Apr 11 07:23:30 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 11 07:23:30 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Jan 31 21:11:45 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 21:11:45 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Fri Aug 30 00:00:00 -0700 2002 Fri Jan 30 19:53:32 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 30 19:53:50 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Wed Dec 17 23:46:03 -0800 2008 Wed Dec 17 23:46:03 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Fri Dec 12 06:43:09 -0800 2008 Fri Dec 12 06:43:15 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Thu Jun 26 13:43:14 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 26 13:43:14 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Mon Jan 28 21:39:25 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 28 21:39:25 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Mon Jan 28 21:26:27 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 28 21:26:27 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sat Jan 26 12:15:26 -0800 2008 Sat Jan 26 12:15:26 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Fri Jan 25 14:42:42 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 25 14:42:42 -0800 2008 1 0 false false Fri Jan 25 14:26:47 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 25 14:26:47 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=432923
