The
Bikeriders
96
Pages, Case, 48 B&W gravure reproductions. Twin Palms, 1997 ($50.00)
This
is the better quality, improved, uncropped reproductions of the
1968 classic originally published by Macmillan and sold for $2.95
in paperback in 1968. Lyon's first book of pictures and text, a
seminal work and the second book ever to use a tape recorded text
and probably the first of the single subject, American subculture
books to appear, soon to be followed by an avalanche we are still
being buried under.
"The
best of the pictures were taken on the road, with Lyon astride his
full-bore Triumph, and were said to be the visual inspiration for
Easy Rider." Andy Grundberg, British Vogue Nov. 1992
Available directly from Twin Palms, Post Office Box 10229, Sante
Fe, New Mexico, 87505, 800-797-0680 (www.twinpalms.com)
