GREAT THINGS COME
PACKED IN PIZZA BOXES. MOSTLY PIZZAS OBVIOUSLY. BUT ALSO THE PACHA
BOOK
EL BAILE 1966-1993.
A VISUAL HISTORY OF THE SUPERCLUB AND THE SUPER ISLAND OF IBIZA. IT IS THE PUREST PLEASURE. IT IS FREEDOM AND EXPRESSION AND LASTS A LIFETIME.
It is a great book / It is a legendary box. The book is rare. The box incomparably so. The book is expensive. The book in the box doubly so.
Good times unboxed. 12 by 12 inches and an inch and half thick. This is 500 pages of [enter IDEA hypersuperlative here].
500 pages of photographs like this one above. The inspiration of a boundless energy and abandon. Gay abandon, straight abandon, any which way abandon.
El tanga. Tried on or tried off. Works both ways. This photograph by the great Spanish photographer Oriol Maspons. There is a fold out section of party pictures by Maspons which could be a book of their own. They are fantasy.
And this picture above - no less amaze - by Pedro Kikebush, of whom we can find ZERO info. It is an astonishing good picture. Not that we need to explain that - you can see it clearly enough. You can see everything clearly enough in that photo!
And this show of youthful exuberance is by Toni Riera, who shot the Playboy Guia Ibiza which you can see here (we have one of those now too).
Wow. Oriol Maspons again. One of the top two or three Ibiza pictures ever. More than life itself this photograph.
The book has to be bought. We only have one copy with the box. They are so extraordinarily hard to find. Hitting the button below is your starting point. Let's do it. End the day owning it!
