A scarcely found signed first edition of Gerald Scarfe's vibrant menagerie of beasts and monsters. Scarcely found signed, this first edition of 'Scarfe Land' collects the fabulous and mythical illustrations made of the artist's discoveries in the concrete wasteland of Scarfeland, alongside detailed descriptions of their nasty habits.
