Quite possibly the only "comic book" in its class Le Grand Rêve Americain The Great American Dream adapts technology developed by Philippe Schléret and Véronique Hauss using molded plastic to create brilliantly colored 3D images. The work exuberantly lampoons Pop Art American culture and early underground comic books. Of all who have ever encountered the work and written of it seemingly none have failed to mention the heavy use of oversized female breasts that jut out from nearly every panel. Indeed OCLC record no. 712159856 lists "Large-breasted women" as one of the subjects. Other tropes not to be ignored include fancy sports cars gangsters and fastfood joints. OCLC notes 8 holdings.

Two partial splits near center of text block numerous unopened signatures. Light foxing to a few leaves interior otherwise fresh. $100. This was one of several publications inspired by the controversy surrounding the claims of Montpensier's children to the Spanish throne. Some argued that the Treaty of Utrecht which ended the War of the Spanish Succession annulled this claim. For them the treaty clearly stated that the crowns of France and Spain remain separate. The anonymous author of the present book does not agree. He supports his claim with an ingenious argument. The final section entitled "Postscript to the Montpensier Marriage" was also published separately. Not in the British Museum Catalogue. unknown books
