A sturdy in-quarto hardcover book. 230 x 294 mm, 335 pp. Original black and white dust jacket with flaps. English and Portuguese title printed on the spine. Headbands.

Several authors contributed to the book texts, Tozzi concluding it with a text on "Living Architecture." "Decio Tozzi has always worked in São Paulo and still is. His work from the 60's, the 70's and the 80's is striking by the love expressed for the craft work and exposed materials. One can obviously recognize Oscar Niemeyer's influence but along the years, Tozzi's work seems to have developed an own very interesting identity." (Architectuul)

20230067USA, DC Comics/Vertigo, 2023. Tall and heavy hardcover, in-folio book. 32 x 21 cm, 384 pp. Signed by David Lloyd on title page, with a sketch of V on blue pencil alongside signature. With dust jacket, a black silk signet and a slipcase nicely housing the book. "Alan Moore and David Lloyd's powerful epic about loss of freedom and individuality gets the Absolute treatment! Taking place in a totalitarian England following a devastating war that changed the face of the planet, V FOR VENDETTA was the inspiration for the hit 2005 movie starring Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving. This amazing graphic novel spotlights a mysterious man in a white porcelain mask and his young protégé as they fight political oppressors through terrorism and seemingly absurd acts. It's a gripping tale of the blurred lines between ideological good and evil and details a world where political and personal freedoms are non-existent."
