First Editions

Led Zeppelin are in the news again with reissues of their first three albums. You can buy the reissues at Urban Outfitters, or get the real deal vintage first pressings of each at Cloud 8 Music in Dolly Python.

All Zeppelin LPs at Dolly are of original vintage in fantastic shape, and Bucks Burnett always makes sure that all their albums are in stock.

Just in also is their first and only Rolling Stone cover issue and story. Hard to believe they only made the cover once their entire career. But then again, they have always been in the business of defying all logic.

And we are always proud that in 2013 Robert Plant announced that the Zep albums were priced too high at Dolly. So we marked down his solo stuff.

Foto Escultura

What is a foto escultura?? The technique of photo-sculpture exemplified in the work offered here is uniquely Mexican. It began in the Districto Federal in the 1930s to commemorate significant events in the lives of Mexican and Mexican-American families. The photo images of individuals are captured, cut, and shaped to fit on a thin hand-carved wooden sculpture with a dimensional impact that is very lifelike. The sculptures are generally housed in simple wooden frames between two panes of glass and incorporate the mediums of photography, painting, and sculpture.

 

This one is probably from the 1930’s or the 1940’s and absolutely gorgeous.  $250.20140607-114943-42583749.jpg
