Clint Eastwood: Icon
« on: January 10, 2010, 09:30:37 AM »
I was given this book for my birthday.  It is an incredible book, and I would highly recommend it for any movie poster or Eastwood fan.  Frangioni had an incredible collection.  It showcases some, but not all of his collection.  The photos and essays are very well done.  I also got the Stanley Kubrick Taschen book which is also amazing.

It's a great book.  I wish Thierry would do a similar book with his Spielberg collection.
Best regards,

Holiday

Great book, and great collection (the portion that's included). Clint Eastwood - Icons 2, sometime in the future I hope. Thierry would need more than one volume also!

And Schan, The Stanley Kubrick Archives is certainly a giant of a book, both in content and size.

Belated happy b'day Schan.

I really dig the Clint Eastwood book too. Some incredible posters in there, that's for sure.

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone.  A second book is definitely warranted, but Mr. Frangioni has since sold a bunch of his collection; so, I dont know if it will ever happen.  We can all hope though!

There is a video review on Amazon where they flip through the book very quickly... it looks like there are some fantastic pieces in it! 

Do you know if it includes the TGTBATU Rome premier posters that were just auctioned at Heritage?  What I wouldn't give to own those puppies...

No unfortunately. $33,000, but not pride of place in this book. Stunning posters indeed.
