“Thank you to my teacher mate who took me to see Tom Waits in concert in 1981 at Dallas Brookes Hall, Melbourne when I was 15,” David Frazer declares in a recent Instagram post announcing his book, “and also a big shout out to Tom Waits for the inspiration his music has given me over my 30 years as an artist!”
This hand-bound book contains 26 wood engravings, 1 linocut and typeset, all printed by hand by the artist, and includes an original linocut cover. Strictly limited edition of 30, each signed by Tom Waits and David Frazer. Each book contains a loose engraving signed by the artist.
