Just curious...how much is this in Yankee dollars? Does it say anything we haven't already learned or been shown?

- his main source of income comes from lavish and quite expensive art prints. Books aim at the "broke" strata of the stones fandom (= us).
- you can't blame him for making beaucoup money nowadays with the Nellcote pictures since he kept them in a cupboard for decades without trying to cash in on them (apart from the occasional sale to a rock mag). That is basically from the time he took them to the year the late Brian Roylance had the very good idea of contacting him to make the "Exile" book together (2000?).

Tu sais qui tire les ficelles? Sa galeriste Julia Gragnon. Elle dirige tout, voit loin, et Dom dit "oui" à chaque fois.
J'ai connu sa galerie du 3ème avant Tarlé : elle vivotait et les tirages de trucs divers prenaient l'humidité et gondolaient au sous-sol...Pas très pro...Le je-m'en-foutisme total.
Elle a fait BEAUCOUP de pognon avec Nellcote et elle compte bien presser le citron jusqu'à la dernière goutte (d'où ces livres hors de prix qui se ressemblent tous).
Avec D.T. Miss Gragnon a gagné les 6 numéros au Loto! Merci Keith! Merci Mick!
Pour finir, une anecdote de la bouche de Dom' : il a fait un nombre considérable de films à Nellcote (plusieurs centaines) . Et qui a réglé la facture? Keith! La classe, non?

Ca on la connait l'histoire mais nous on paye tout plein pot.Y'a plein de bouquin sur d'autres artistes qui sont à des prix correctes mais bon c'est comme ça. Ils feraient les bouquins moins cher ils feraient plus de frics. Il y a une part de snobisme la dedans.

Well I just got my copy this morning.First the book is huge.
The printing quality is very good.
But what about the content ?
To my surprise it's not just another cash book like some of you may think of.
There is indeed the well known pictures inside, and for some of them printed at a larger size than the ones you got in the infamous Exile book which allow you to see more details.
And then again, I would say that for the unreleased shots, there are a number of them.I know it will never beat the Genesis Book, but it's very close to it and a nice addition.
Yeah the price is kind of high, but ridiculous compare to Exile.

So to answer to liddas, if you already got The Box, forget it, get that one instead there is far more pictures in it.
So much unreleased shots are a premiere since a while with Dominique.
I follow him since yearrrrrrs, and during the past years we got the new ones from time to time only, today with this book, at last we can be satisfied.

Thank you for your feedback, but I am afraid I did not understand your advice!
Yes, I already have the box!
Is La Villa worth buying as well, or is it redundant?

At 35 Euros it's 100 Euros cheaper than the main one.
