Great Photographs, 27 May 2000
By "pandora@madbastard.com" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dali's Mustache (Hardcover)
I thoroughly enjoyed the photos in this book, but that is all there was to it. There are about 40 really great photos of Dali doing strange things with his mustache. It is certainly not, as I was led to believe by the other reviewer, a novel. One can easily read the whole book in just a few minutes. It is called a photographic interview and just has some questions, each followed by a crazy photo with a caption.

A wonderful little book, 7 Dec 2004
By Johny Bottom "Insane and lonely guitarist" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dali's Mustache (Hardcover)
This book is mainly pictures of Salvador Dali's mustache in different poses. His whiskers have stand straight up, go straight out, and everything in between. There is some some dialogue that is nothing more than questions and answers. For instance, it is asked why Dali paints. On the next page his mustache is shaped like an 'S' and there are two paint brushes running across his face to complete the dollar sign '$'.
I love this book because I am a big fan of Dali. Also my daughter has come to love it and usually asks for this book for her bedtime story. It makes her giggle because some of the pictures are just so strange. Although the picture of Dali as the Mona Lisa is quite disturbing.
The book can be read in under three minutes, but for fans of "The Dali" it can bring a lifetime of pleasure.

A fantastic journey into the strange world that is Dali., 3 Jan 1999
By jarchuletta@yahoo.com - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dali's Mustache (Hardcover)
A must have for all Salvador Dali fans and a definate collectors item. World famous photographer Philippe Halsman beautifully (and sometimes disturbingly) brings to life one of the greatest Dali obsessions of all time...his mustache. A funny and free-spirited trip into a crazy world. I highly recomend this novel for any enthusiast or someone with a taste for the bizarre. Painstainkingly produced. A masterpiece for all ages!
