Description: “Well-researched, encyclopedic, full of fascinating facts and an ideal present for silver screen enthusiasts.”The ultimate anthology of cinematic showpieces, in extra-handy format. This careful selection of movie masterworks sets noir alongside new wave, slapstick alongside tragedy in a far-reaching, infinitely inspiring guide to the jewels of 20th-century filmmaking.To make the cover I use grade A, naturally tanned hide, I buy from a tannery in north Spain. It is the same leather Louis Vuitton uses to make his bags, so it is top quality. I do all the processing of the leather myself. First, I design the cover, and what I did here on the front I used the painting of the early twentieth century Los Angeles's Broadway, with all the movie theaters, and Saturday night traffic. On the back and the side, I placed images of various posters of some of the most emblematic films of the 20th century. Next, I mix leather inks and screen them on the surface of the leather. The inks are partly absorbed by the skin to create a permanent bond. Finally, I coat the leather with protective solution. The leather gives the image a vintage look and beautiful texture, and it will age nicely with time. Inside the front cover. I can print a personal message or a quote from the book.It is a perfect Coffee Table book. Visually it has a very nice texture, it smells great, and the more you handle it the more beautiful it will become. And it makes a great gift for yourself, or somebody who appreciates books. So if you want one, don’t snooze, or you might lose.Book - 100 All-Time Favorite Movies of the 20th Century by Jürgen Müller.Size - 8.5 x 6.5 inches (22x 16 cm).Pages - 832.Languages - You can have it either in English or Spanish.If you would like more information about this title, this is the original book's ISBN 978-3836556187If you are interested in a different title, send me a message and I will give you a quote.Returns: This is a custom-made item, so returns or exchanges are not accepted.
