Little Sparta/London: Wild Hawthorn Press/Victoria Miro Gallery, 2007
16 x 28cm, 44pp plus embossed white card covers. Posthumously printed almost to the day one year after Finlay's death, this is an ornate and rather lovely exhibition catalogue which displays ten neon works each full page and with high gloss varnish, other text works in embossed raised text also on highly glossy stock and a short essay by Stephen Bann. Appropriately high production values for the very last publication from the Wild Hawthorn Press. VG++.
