Good book of prints, flimsy binding
I'll be honest, I bought this book to cut it up. There are several works in here that don't have official poster releases ("Dream" for example) that I wanted to have good quality prints of, and this was the largest-dimensioned Escher art book I could find. The paperback binding was rather flimsy and the some of the pages fell out, but since this was exactly what I was trying to do with the book I'm counting it as a plus. The pages look very nice framed on the wall. All in all nice quality prints and interesting little blurbs about them on the opposite pages, but subpar binding (which can still be a plus if you want to take the book apart).

Worth a thousand words
I've loved Eschers work since I first saw it as a teenager. I couldn't beleive this was only two bucks. The quality is very good, thick, heavy paper with a slight gloss. Very sturdy for a paperback and can hold it's own as a coffee table book. Nice enough to frame if you could bear to cut it up. Interesting background info on each print. It's arrival made for a delightfully lazy afternoon spent perusing the pages. Many guests have enjoyed it since. I wish I got that much value fo revery two bucks I spend.

Great & fascinating drawings
Lots of MC Eshers most well known & mind boggling drawings. This is a must if you are a fan.

Quality product
I ordered a "used" book on Escher; the price was reasonable and the book's quality was beyond my expectations.

Large enough to frame
The observations written by Escher were interesting. They draw attention to subtleties about each print and his thoughts on being a graphic artist, just short blurbs to digest while looking over the page. He notes how his self-portrait reflecting in a globe shows him holding the globe with his right hand, which is a reflection of his left hand, which was carved into the wood press as a right hand because the print is the opposite and he's really left handed. The large format of the book is nice too. I cut several prints out with an exacto knife and framed them to put on the wall.

Fun every time you open it!
I had "MY" own copy of this book and my daughter( she's a professional artist and has a fine arts degree) was wearing mine out so I bought her her own. I was able to find another one for her in PERFERT collectable condition. I love M. C.Escher! It is like a where's WALDO? book. You can always find something new that you didn't notice before in every picture These are "out of print" I was thrilled to find one for her in such nice shape!... arived quickly excellent packaging!

This book is a must for all that like Escher's work. Perfect coffee table type book, the images are on thick glossy paper and ready to cut out to make prints (approx A4 sized, some a bit larger some a little smaller). A bargain for the price. Arrived next working day, two days ahead of schedule in perfect condition.
