As this book states, Pop Art was given a negative prognosis by most critics when it debuted in the early 1960s. They gave it only months to live. As the current hammer prices for Warhol paintings attest, most critics were wrong. This gorgeous book is equally durable. Though Pop Art ushered in the new, the production quality of this book harkens back to the 1930s, with gorgeous color plates and heavy paper stock. A gem.
