A beautiful book from 1976 about the incredible art of Afgan Truck painting. The trucks in the 70s represented modern updates on an ancient custom where Afghan caravan drivers covered their camels with ribbons, tassels, fringe and plenty of good luck charms to see them through dangerous desert crossings. “Flowers transform the trucks into a moving oasis,” writes Blanc. “With rows of tulips and bouquets of roses clinging to it sides, the Afghan truck is like a travelling art gallery wending its way through arid mountains and deserts.”
