Norman Mailers’s Limited Edition MoonFire
If I could ask Santa for one thing alone, it would be this book: Norman Mailer’s MoonFire. I caught wind of this from Katie while she was at Art Basel. Yes, it’s $1,500. But it’s worth it! Artnet tweeted about it too. Only 12 come with an actual moon rock (though I’m not sure how legal that is). However, prices vary depending on the size of the rock. Another selling point for buying the moon rock edition is that you get dinner with Buzz Aldrin! AND… the normal edition is limited to 1969. Nice touch, eh? Keep it in mind. Hint hint. Just saying.
