Lots of eye candy! GROG like. Great pictures by Jon Paul and all the contributing photographers.(Accept ya'll forgot the Bamboo Ben mug!) GROG like that the book focuses on current mugs and not vintage, and shows what an art mug making has become. And GROG happy it showcases the artists/makers behind the mugs.( Even though they forgot the Bamboo Ben mug!) Congratulations on such an awesome book. GROG look forward to the second one. (With the Bamboo Ben mug!) And speaking of things left out of the book,GROG wonder why "Squid" Cohen didn't get his picture in the book like Crazy Al and Diablo when he's designed and carved such a huge body of Tiki mugs? If you went to the Squid Retrospective at Kona last year, you know what a prolific artist Dave is. GROG also notice that there was no link to either one of Dave's websites at the back of the book when all the other mug artists had links to their websites printed at the back of the book. What gives? That GROG only MAJOR gripe GROG have with book. (That, and maybe that the Bamboo Ben mug accidently got left out. :wink: )
