Osm - Wl Condition: an illustrated tribute book (Paperback)


This book is not a guide book or price book but rather is an artist's interpretation of a very inventive toy created during one year: 1968. A year before I was born. I never had the opportunity to have these toys during my youth. But I have attained these toys at various places such as ebay, flea markets or antique shows. A perfect set of all 7 figures can be found on ebay for over $5000 MUCH TOO RICH FOR MY BUDGET. I have entitled this book: OSM: WL Condition. That is Outer Space Men: Well Loved Condition. My toys have missing paint, missing limbs, and wire sticking through. One of the figures I only have the head. The images in this book are original paintings and drawings inspired by these bendable toys. I also have taken photographs and manipulated them digitally using a computer program. Mel Birnkrankt and Gary Schaeffer own the copyright for these figures. THIS BOOK IS NOT AUTHORIZED BY MEL BIRNKRANKT OR GARY SCHAEFFER MY DESIRE IS THEY LIKE THIS BOOK. THANKS FOR LOOKING, PATRICK B. HUMPHREYS
