The Wes Anderson Collection: The French Dispatch: The French Dispatch

Bought it used and it looked used but it's what i expected. Definitely worth the cheaper price. The book and this whole series are fun to have in hand.

This expensive book, which is beautiful, was delivered with NO PACKING MATERIAL.Although I have a doctorate, when I was 15, I worked in a company at 157 Chambers Street in NYC, packing books and records. Outside of the book, the box was empty as the packer’s head!Whoever packed this book needs to be taught how to pack! DISGRACE! I found no other way to complain to Amazon!

lovely book. It’s the same high quality as the rest of the series.

Just bought my copy at my local independent bookstore and just wanted to note that the quality of The French Dispatch is identical to my copy of Seitz's The Grand Budapest Hotel. Which is to say it is exquisite. They're lovely books that are put together with a level of care and attention to detail befitting a Wes Anderson production.

Binding | The book is printed and bound in the USA. One of the two stars is for this alone. The quality of the binding is bad. Hold it against the incidence of a ray of light or run your fingertips diagonally across the boards, and the bumpy cheap cardboard used in the binding is evident. Paper Stock | The stock is light weight semi-gloss, that is known to the subscribers of Vogue, Variety, GQ, or Cosmopolitan. One word … Cheap. Print | Super tiny (Point 4?) Serif fonts start to finish. Lines are packed close together, in dense text clusters, making for *very difficult* readability. The Covers of The French Dispatch | This section has all 30+ classy and classic covers by the illustrator Javi Aznarez. What’s not to like? The four covers crammed per page. It is hard to believe that ABRAMS pulled this wry joke on the discriminating readers and collectors of all things Wes Anderson. Each cover deserves a page all its own. With another page of commentary. And each with a perforated easy-tear layout for framing. But no such luck … or good foresight forthcoming. Verdict | Skip this edition. Unless you are a completist. My copy will be returned for a full refund.

Greta book, but tired of poor packaging from Am@zon. Book was dinged up. Common occurrence.

The cover is damaged.

O livro, apesar de grande e pesado, é delicado e com detalhes artísticos. Ele veio embalado solto em uma caixa muito maior do que deveria, sem nenhum tipo de plástico bolha ou algo do tipo, deixando o produto "sambando" na caixa quando manejado. Talvez por causa disso, o livro veio com um rasgo na lombada. Um produto como esse, com um valor considerável e um item de coleção, não deveria ser tratado dessa maneira.

...endlich erschienen und es war die Wartezeit wert. Sowohl der Inhalt als auch die Druckqualität lassen für mich keine Wünsche offen

Muy buena calidad del papel, excelente para coleccionar
