Billy Name: The Silver Age: Deluxe Limited Edition Details
Review His photographs ― he took thousands, in a moody, high-contrast black and white ― did more than just capture Warhol’s retinue, his “superstars”: Edie Sedgwick, Brigid Berlin, Gerard Malanga, Mario Montez, Mary Woronov, Ondine, and Bibbe Hansen. They also documented the larger scene around the Factory, including fellow artists like Ray Johnson, Jasper Johns and John Cage; the members of the Velvet Underground; the filmmaker Barbara Rubin; and admirers like Bob Dylan and Salvador Dalí.

Reviews
This book is lovely (just got it today), and the photographs are reproduced extremely well. Billy Name has a unique high contrast style, so you either like it or you don't, but I think it is awesome.I'm not going to take off a star for this because I'm reviewing the book, not Amazon, but unfortunately--as I often have to do--I'll be sending this book back to Amazon for a replacement, as it arrived damaged. I'm sure they won't change their policy, as they've no doubt run the numbers and think it is more economical for people to send back damaged books than to package them all so they won't get damaged in the first place, but it would be nice if Amazon cared a little bit more about how they ship their expensive art books.
