Book will not be sold at EU location because you can just buy it directly from the publisher if you are in the EU. ;)
Very pleased to have a few copies of Suehiro Maruo's very special 40th anniversary Maruograph DX Grandioso Ultimate book. This massive book is 744 pages long! Almost 2" thick!!

Just arrived to both the USA and EU shipping locations (available to ship worldwide from either one) - a TON of signed posters and signed & numbered, limited edition art prints! The printer in Tokyo was kind enough to go visit their off-site storage and even found some RARE out of print posters! Any of the titles below which are marked with an asterisk ( * ) will be permanently sold out since I bought the very last pieces out of the storage.
