Hi to all.
Does anyone know if there is an individual book available on Emek or even
Justin Hampton for that matter?
I have the Bible , the Art of Modern Rock posters,also the Firehouse book and Koziks and they all very well produced as is the Electric Frankenstein book.

No books as of yet for any of the PNE guys (Emek, Jermaine, or Justin). But you can pick up the gallery show program from this past December which does cover all three of them to moderate degrees.

I would have liked it to be longer but I'll take what I can get till they put out "real ones". BTW - last time I checked, these programs could still be had thru Justin's website (only signed by him, but still...)

Thanks Yamar
I might be wrong and certainly cannot speak for everyone.
But I think the time is right for a great book about all 3 PNE artists.
I think I read where Emek has produced over 400 posters thus far.
So there is no shortage of material for a book.
Maybe Paul Grushkin and Co could consider a book like that on PNE,
I know they of course produced The Art Of Modern Rock posters.
I just think there might be a thirst for knowlege at this time on the whole poster fraternity at this time,Bell,Mcpherson,Kuhn,EngineHouse 13,Michael Michael Motorcyle ect.
I think that is why I enjoy the Firehouse,Kozik and also the Rick Griffin and Mouse & Kelley books,they are a bit more artist specific.
Saying that I cannot put down for a while The Art of Modern Rock posters.
Of course The Art of Rock posters the predecessor is a beauty as well.
Im sure theres something Coming in the future.............................
