The first hardcover edition is better than this but is very difficult to find. Anyway this is a care edition.
Tom of Finland is one of the greatest artist of the last century. His pictures are marvellous, exciting, perfect... I'm anxious waiting for Tom of Finland's comics books in June 2005 El desván de AaromSpain |

I first discovered the book in a local bookstore many years ago. However, the book was in over-size, which could hardly be placed in my book rack. But I was still longing to have a copy of it 'coz the characters in the book turns me on so much. They are all my dream men. Excitedly, I have got a copy of the book in smaller size in the same book store in Hong Kong a couple of day. Now I could read it whenever I like to.
To all TOM & FINLAND fans: you will love the book. Please get one for your big collection. Simone, HONG KONG. lorgess(at)yahoo.com SimoneHong Kong |

I must confess, this book was my first experience into Tom's world, and I felt in love at first sigh. Tom's art is the ultimate expression of masculine fantasies and for me as an illustrator, a real challenge about what a masterpiece must be...I already have the bigger first edition, but if I have a chance to find this new edition here in Mexico, I'll be happy to repeat the experience it again!vanelli_2001Mexico |
