Köln: Taschen. Fine. (c.2013). Piccolo. Flexible card covers. [nice, as-new book]. (B&W/color photographs, facsimiles) A tri-lingual (English, German, French) condensation and miniaturization of Heimann's massive visual paean to L.A.'s history and culture. Whereas the original edition had 572 pages, measured about 10" x 13.5", and weighed about ten pounds, this version -- "192 pages distilling the best of the original" into a pocket-sized format (5"x7") -- is more of a sampler, but an adorable one. And it won't break your foot if you happen to drop it! .
