Last seen in a very limited edition back in 1969. After many, many months, Tangerine Press finally tracked down Mr. Harder, who gave his permission to reprint this forgotten classic of the US small press. Some of you may be familiar with his work in the mighty double issue of Jon and Lou Webb's The Outsider 4/5. The Webb's were big fans of Mr. Harder's work and rightly so. Originally drawn when the artist was a world-weary 19 year old, For Whom... is by turns funny, sad, disturbing, desperate, human. General information: 209 pages. Large format, approx. 7"/175mm wide x 250mm/10" tall. Handbound at the Tangerine Press workshop, using acid-free papers and boards, conservation glue, hemp cord; distinctive Tangerine logo stamped onto the front cover in black ink; 3-colour title page. There are 74 numbered and 26 lettered copies available for sale. Body text set in Baskerville Old Face—three other classic fonts are used throughout the journal.
