Denim Dudes...

Is it any good or is it as cheesy as the title would suggest?

I was sent a picture of what looks to be a Levi price list from around 1888-89.....Didnt learn much from it- but it was really neat to see. It was from this new book your talking about.

The book, at first glance, looks like buckle-back heaven to me LOL  - although I wont be able to read the text, I'm drooling over the opportunity to see some more pics on those original Dead stock 1922's!
 
The price for the book is around £50-£90 although everywhere is already sold out from what I've seen.
 
Probably pick a cheaper copy up from ebay in another, say 10 years :/

Bought the book from recent trip to Japan.
happy to confirm there is proper English translation for every japanese text in the book.
Not cheap, but its worth it for its meticulous breakdown of the evolution of Levis from its early years until 1966.
(& for amazing detailed shots of every vintage jeans it covered)
