A copy of the deluxe limited edition book Waits/Corbijn ’77-’11, boldly signed for a former associate by Tom Waits and Anton Corbijn.

Waits/Corbijn ’77-’11 is described in the included 4 page promotional flyer as ‘a collector’s edition linen slipcased book limited to 6,600 copies published by renowned German publisher Schirmer/Mosel. The coffee table art book not only features over 200 pages of Waits’ portraits taken by Corbijn over four decades, but also includes over 50 pages of the first published collection of musings and photographs taken by Waits himself.  The clothbound book has introductions written by film director Jim Jarmusch and longtime music critic Robert Christagu.’

This mint and fresh example was boldly signed at the time of publication for a former close associate of Waits (the recipient’s name is included in the book’s inscription, but has been removed from the images here for their privacy).  In addition, Waits’ wife and creative collaborator Kathleen Brennan has written a note of thanks on a cardboard packing sheet, part of the original shipping box which is included (again, the recipient’s name has been photoshopped out, but is on the original note).

This is the only signed example we’ve seen of Waits/Corbijn ’77-’11.  In mint condition.  272 pages; shipping weight 7.8 lbs.  10 1/2″ x 14 3/4″ x 1 3/4″.

With Recordmecca’s written lifetime guarantee of authenticity.  (Note: the book is very large and will be shipped internationally at cost; any additional shipping expenses will be billed).
