Al Parker: Illustrator ★ Innovator

AlParker_IllustratorInnovatorWe’ve just received a few copies of a new book collecting the art of exceptional and influential mid-twentieth century American illustrator Al Parker. Despite critical acclaim, Parker’s work has not been widely and consistently available.

Al Parker: Illustrator Innovator has over 500 beautiful – mostly full colour – illustrations in 208 24x31cm pages.

The artwork spans Parker’s career through advertising, magazine covers, and prose story illustration along with reproductions of his reference photos, essays, and an interview with Parker from 1964.
