I was born in raised in Chapletown Leeds, this was the first record store I knew. Was super happy to find it had been released as a print by RRB photobooks in Bristol.
Link to the site here including books by Martin Parr, Peter Mitchell and many more. Well worth a look.

I`m looking for a UAA member who lives in the Netherlands and would be willing to do me a kind favour.
Essentially I`m trying to buy a book from a Dutch supplier but they won`t deliver to the UK citing the Brexit changes and import difficulties.
The book I`m trying to buy isn`t expensive but I can`t find it elsewhere as it`s out of print. The favour I`m looking for is for a resident of the Netherlands to buy the book, stick my address on it when it gets sent to their house, and then send it to me in the UK. I will of course cover all the costs and happy to pay a fee on top for time and effort. I would offer some art in exchange but I honestly have nothing worthwhile.
Please let me know if you`re able to help me out and I can let you know the details of the book supplier and the book and we can take it from there.

Really ? that's awesome. I went to the same college actually, called Jacob Kramer College of Art at the time. Here's Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore on the front steps. Barbara of course married Ben Nicholsen who you posted on earlier.

In 2003, Steadman turned his talent to one of the most important books ever written and illustrated a gorgeous 50th anniversary edition of Fahrenheit 451 โ Ray Bradburyโs celebrated dystopian novel, titled after โthe temperature at which book paper catches fire and burnsโ and originally published when Bradbury was only thirty-three. Exactly 451 copies were printed, each signed by both Steadman and Bradbury. In addition to this, was this very special deluxe limited edition of just 52 lettered copies, this specially bound edition is hand marbled with the ash from burned books, signed by Bradbury and Steadman in a clamshell box, and with an additional folder containing a silkscreen print, titled "The Hound," signed and numbered by Steadman. This is fantastic! Would love to own this, but I'm sure they'd be insanely expensive if I could even find one for sale.

Juergen Teller - Marc Jacobs Advertising 1988-2009 Almost 600 pages with all the Marc Jacobs ads. Fantastic!
My wife got this one:
Kate by Kate Moss ( Rizzoli ) with the Juergen Teller cover ( there are 8 or 9 different covers ) You may or may not like Kate Moss but there is no denial that she was breath taking in her early years.

Nice one Terryfuckwitt,
I was only reading about Kurt Jackson in the paper on my lunch break, and one of his books in the sale.
'Artist in Chief' for Glastonbury by all accounts.
Has an exhibition coming up in Bath as well - www.victoriagal.org.uk/events/kurt-jackson-biodiversity

Reading 'American Psycho' for the first time in the early 90s left me shocked, repulsed and fascinated. A few years later, Bret Easton Ellis did a book reading for his new book 'Glamorama'. After the Q&A ( which I remember as being very weird, mainly because BEE is actually very weird ) I got both of these signed. Certainly in the stash which I would grab when the house is on fire.
