my wedding gift

[Uncle Jesse]

Took my buddy 6 months to come through with it, but he got me a copy of Ralph Steadman's book "Still Life With A Bottle" which is an out of print hardcover detailing the history, folklore and processes of distilling using Steadman's art and writing. He signed this copy for me and took it from his private stash.

Steadman has done a lot of labels and so on, but he is perhaps most famous for his work in Hunter Thompson books.
