If you are going to be a student in the Illustration Department next year, your very own copy of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi!

We are using a new translation (put out by the New York Review of Books) by Geoffrey Beck which features a foreword by Umberto Eco. In addition to an earlier post about more classical illustrations of the book by Mussino, we’ll be featuring some more information about the book, the story, and the art of Pinocchio here on the blog, so keep your eyes open for that!

Come by today and get your copy!

A couple of last days to put things off…
