In addition to being a bit of a digital hoarder, I have a decent collection of enlarged anime background paintings on the walls at my office. My tastes in subject matter are pretty wide ranging, but I don’t have a specific collection of the 80s anime film megacities paintings. This book seems to fill a gap I didn’t even think I had in what I display.

I was super impressed by the price point of this book. All the reviews say the print quality is excellent. $45 for a ~250 page hardcover is a great deal even if you just want it to sit on a coffee table or book shelf. Thanks for the tip, I ordered immediately, and it’s going on the small desk in my office.

Where do you get them from?

My grandparents owned a print shop as their retirement plan, so when I was in my early 20s I got them to do some high quality, faux-canvas prints for about 15 of my favorite at that time (the early 2000’s). If I wanted to do some now I’d have to go suck up to the manager of my local phototek (and given the business my firm gives him I think I may be able to make it work).
