TUTTLE, RICHARD. Two Books. The first with 20 screenprints and 10 cut-outs and the second with 10 screenprints, each bound in black felt covers (12 x 9 1/4 inches; 305 x 235 mm); original thin card slipcase with wooden slat insert. This copy unsigned and bearing no limitation/colophon. "The[se] slim, elegant volumes -- one hard-bound, one soft -- covered in velvety black felt are veritable flip books in which Minimalist images change slightly but sequentially from page to page. 'This really got [Tuttle] going with the more deluxe artist's books,' Mr. Rainwater said. 'It set the stage for his making decisions about paper, printing, every single thing he can control'" (New York Times, 16 Feb, 1997).
