Limited edition hardcover first printing of issue numero 14, which features Swindle's "Master Class" of street artists: Barry McGee / TWIST (who contributed the cover illustration, obv), Dalek and Italy's Blu. I know Barry is the name here, but Blu's art is seriously stunning; his pieces look like intricate sketchbook pages blown up to cover whole sides (or sometimes fronts) of multi-level buildings. Also included are pieces on Liverpool's music scene (Ladytron, Hot Club de Paris, etc.), Sudan, Planet of the Apes and an interesting look at the Aboriginal originators of Australian cricket. Full color; 138 pages.
