Cited in Roth, The 101 Books, The Family Album of Lucybelle Crater was produced during the last two years of Meatyard's life. David Levi-Strauss describes it as the artist's "...purest statement. In its forthrightness and gothic loopiness, it manages to illuminate two truths simultaneously: that we are all the same, really; and that we are all different, under the masks." Boards show some discoloration to the lower right hand corner due most likely to a moisture stain. Light shelf wear. Internally, clean and unusually bright. Hint of tanning to page edges. Hinges sound. Binding tight. Slight musty smell. The dust jacket has light wear. Discoloration to the lower right hand corner corresponding to the moisture stain on the front board. V shaped small chip to the top edge DJ front cover. Not price clipped. Now mylar protected. A very nice copy. Uncommon hardcover 1974 first edition. An incredible book.
