Found a copy of the book at Powells.com for $175 - too rich for my blood.
If you've got a couple more bucks, hit this guy (!!!) -

Now, if someone would be nice enough to offer large-scale prints of these beautiful things, I wouldn't have to hatch evil plans to visit the local libraries with a pair of staple-removers...:D
