This is of interest to those who enjoy the age of the silver screen and western idols. It is a true rags to riches tale of the American Dream, in technicolor with sequins. A penniless immigrant tailer who invented the western idol image and sold it to the world.

very cool book

This is a great conversation piece, it has some really great info and classic photos in it. Got to love Nudie Suits!

The Best on The Best

Leave this on your coffee table and it will be picked up. Nudie's name gets their attention, but then his work keeps them looking. Some may label his work as kitsch. I contend Nudie was a great American artist. This book is worthy of the man. Nicely laid out. Die-cut on the front. A great gift or addition to your library.
