I'm still trying to find a copy...it apparently 300 pages and has a comprehensive selection of his many designs (both his and his Associates group), as well as many prototypes. I also understand there's tons of clock photos too.

I'm trying to track down a copy from Vitra's NY store, but so far, it's not available from Amazon or any Museum shop I've tried (MOMA, Walker Art Center, etc.)

Can't you just buy it off the Vitra Design Museum's online shop?

Yes, we in the USA can get it from Vitra
but they want 79 euros for the book and a bleeding 30 euros for shipping.
The issue is...finding it here on the USA shores.

Swiss Miss
Barry and Lloyd, I will see if I can get you two copies cheaper when I move to Lausanne in March if you don't find one here before then. I know I can ship it cheaper than 30 euros! Did you check abebooks.com?

I
don't know about shipping from Switzerland, but assuming the total weight, including packaging, is over 2Kg then 30Euros would be about right from the UK
