Description from the seller

This large Helmut Newton Sumo is in very good condition with virtually no signs of use.
Usually these editions after more than 25 years have a few defects. Not this one.
The spine is still solid; under the cover the front and the spine are undamaged. No fingerprints. No tears or dents or scratches.
This 'furniture piece' has been kept very carefully.
A value-retaining investment you can enjoy for years.
The book weighs 30 kg.
The accompanying stand designed by Philippe Starck is also in very good condition.

The original SUMO is almost as imposing as the influence of the person portrayed is large; the book is a tribute to the renowned photographer Helmut Newton. The work is compiled by June Newton, comes with a book stand by Philippe Starck and contains nearly 400 photographs. It covers every aspect of Newton's extraordinary career and presents his groundbreaking fashion photography, iconic nude photographs, and portraits of celebrities.

A limited 'Collector’s Edition' of 10,000 copies – each signed and numbered by Helmut Newton – including a book stand designed by Philippe Starck.
Book number: 02321
