Two nights ago, as part of my oh-so-busy social calendar (which includes standing appointments at the Los Hermanos taco stand), I dropped in on former Life photojournalist Bill Eppridge’s book party for the release of A Time It Was in the East Village. In addition to consuming more than my share of wine and amazing cheese, I also managed to pick-up an extra copy of Bill’s book, which he was kind enough to sign for me. In honor of the beginning of the end of Election ‘08, I’m giving away this signed copy of a book that covers another historic election. It’s a lovely hardback tome of Bill’s photographs from Robert Kennedy’s ‘68 campaign. (See an online excerpt on Vanity Fair’s website.) The candid shots are a wonder to behold.

Photos from the book party follow the jump.

The first ever C-Monster giveaway!

Skewville Fresh
Skewville Fresh.

To celebrate the upcoming debut of Skewville’s Brooklyn Gallery, Factory Fresh, proprietor Ad Deville has kindly donated an item for the first ever C-Monster giveaway.

Drop us a line in the comments section below telling us why you need a little freshness in your life (an incomplete sentence will do), and this Skewville crate could be yours. The piece comes complete with a layer of New York City grime, as it was recently rescued from the exterior of a condemned building where it had been installed.

Nicknames are fine (we’ll keep your identity private, if you want), just use a working e-mail address (so we can contact you) and be sure to tell us what city you’re based in. The winner will be announced the week of June 9th.

Offer not valid if you’re a cop.
