Title: I Could Tell You but Then You Would Have to Be Destroyed by Me: Emblems from the Pentagon's Black World Author: Trevor Paglen Publisher: Melville House Publishing Format: Hardcover (True First Edition) Publication Date: November 2007 ISBN-13: 978-1933633329 COLLECTOR'S NOTE: This is the highly scarce, true First Printing Hardcover from November 2007 featuring the genuine, embroidered fabric military patch physically affixed to the front cover. Later reprints and paperback editions completely removed this physical patch feature, replacing it with a flat printed image. An incredible crossover collectible for military history buffs, patch collectors, and contemporary art book enthusiasts alike. Condition: Cover & Patch: The physical embroidered patch is fully intact, clean, and tightly affixed to the front board. The front board and spine are in excellent shape, while the back black board shows some light surface scratches from normal shelf wear (see photos). Pages & Binding: The binding is tight and solid. Interior pages are crisp, clean, bright, and completely free of writing, highlighting, or dog-ears. Copyright Page: Formally states "First Melville House Printing: November 2007" (see photos). Pricing & Offers: Not quite where you want to be on the price? Feel free to send over a reasonable Best Offer—I am happy to consider fair negotiations from fellow collectors! Thanks for looking!
