This book titled "Notations" by John Cage is a rare and out of print first edition hardcover. The book features works by John Cage, a renowned American composer and music theorist, and includes illustrations by the author himself.

Published in 1969 by Something Else, this book is a collectible item for any book lover and fan of Cage's work. With topics ranging from performing arts to music theory, in only the way John Cage could do it.

This book lived out its beginning as a library book and has the commensurate markings of a former library and now retired book. The good thing is that the library dust jacket kept the book in pretty good condition for its age.

There is a coffee stain on the dust jacket but does not seem to have spilled into the book.

This out of print rare hardback edition is an excellent addition to anyone who has loved Cage’s work or who is fascinated by the influences of one of the most influential composers of the 20th century. This book written in 1969 was printed in the same year as the Moon Landing and Woodstock along with so many other pivotal historic events that shaped our world.

It is a great addition to your collection even in this worn condition.
