Item Description
11x14” original edition printed in 1992. Deluxe designed book with metal cover quickly sold out following its initial publication. Contents are largely sexually explicit photos (many of which are of Madonna herself) plus related poetry, verse or text by Madonna. Book is a well-read copy with wear to spiral binding and metal covers which have a few indents/creases. However, title page has been boldly signed in black felt tip pen “To Rob – Madonna.” This could be easily removed for display given spiral binding. It would make for a tremendous display with book’s cover or an inside page. Book itself is Fine. Signature page is Exc. Comes with 5.5x8.5” note on “Maverick” (Madonna’s record label which she founded shortly after the publication of this book) letterhead with message in blue ink “Rob – Enjoy. I’ll Have Her Sign The Poster In A Couple Of Days. Take Care – Caresse.” Note was originally taped inside cover and from Caresse Henry, a Maverick employee. Note has some handling wear/aging. Fine+. Signed copies of this book are scarce and very desirable. Comes with Hake’s COA.
