Containing two numbered volumes, both in red-white-and-blue woven plastic wrappers with exposed thread sewn binding (Japanese stab binding). Folded (uncut) leaves, unpaginated. Full-page photographs with captions and occasional text in Chinese and English. *** This publication is the culmination of a long-running project by designer anothermountainman (starting in 1988) centered round the idea of the iconic red-white-and-blue bag, widely used throughout Hong Kong and seen a symbol of the region. Volume One traces the origin, history, manufacturing, production and common applications of the red-white-and-blue material. Volume Two features over twenty five artists, designers, architects and design educators and their visual re-interpretation of the red-white-and-blue material. The publication itself is a design classic. Extremely scarce.
