GOSSAGE, John

The Thirty Two Inch Ruler

Washington, D.C.: John Gossage / Stiedl [sic], 2008. Limited Edition. Quarto. One of about 30 prepublication, print-on-demand copies, produced by John Gossage and Gerhard Steidl in advance of the trade publication of the same name. With an original inkjet color print, as issued, number 3 of 30, SIGNED by Gossage. A color study of Gossage's DC neighborhood, where he and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld were neighbors. Quintessential Gossage: at once banal yet indecipherable. Fine in photo-illustrated wrappers.
