If you’re into Scarfe’s work, there are a few books here you might enjoy picking up.

…but you’re unlikely to enjoy this book by his wife.

This animation is crude, snide, ugly...and the best thing I've seen on my computer in half a year.  What an awesome find. Ahh, America, my native land.  Boisterous, brash and broad shouldered; hypochondriac, hilarious and hypocritical... Forty years later, everything is different...and nothing's changed.  One bad-ass time capsule...thanks Xeni! “1973 Dodge Charger, brand new, 2438 the full price…”
