Artist's publication by Peven (1949-2017), 1979. Edition of 250, as new. Set of six books, 11.5 x 15.5 cm. each. Paper wraps, staple bound. Offset printed in color. Signed in facsimile, unnumbered. A set of six oversize faux matchbooks featuring well known U.S. landmarks and monuments on the front flip cover. Set entitled, “Snatches,” and includes “Arch Angel,” “Blue Tips,” “Hot Heads,” “Golden Showers,” “Bridging the Gap,” and “Giving Heads.” Titles suggest the sometimes pornographic color photographs under the (matchbook) covers. Comes with a conventional matchbook of the Hoover Dam, signed by Peven in 1979, when I acquired the set directly from him by mail. Also comes with an exhibition announcement, “Michael Peven: Photographic Works,” Feb. 2-27, 1980, Southern Light Gallery, Amarillo College, very good with staple holes, chip at edge, and mailing label. [Peven was a Professor of Art at the University of Arkansas and was active in the Society for Photographic Education. He published a limited edition book, Prophesy Panorama (A Cultural Nighmare) in 1982.]
