Footnotes
"Several years ago, one of my best friends bought me the original Helmut Newton Sumo, which sat proudly in my living room until I got worried that my small daughters might start looking at some of the racier photographs. I've still got it and remain amazed at the ingenuity of it all. I was intrigued by the David Hockney edition, but having bought it, never unwrapped it. I know it's beautiful, but I simply don't have the space for it anymore. In fact, I never have."
