High Times cover

The first book from Berlin illustration dynamic duo Golden Cosmos and their maiden book collaboration with Nobrow Press.

The beautiful concertina book folds out to a stunning 136 cm panorama detailing the history of flight and aviation from the legendary attempts of Icarus, to the revolutionary innovations of the Jet Age, to sustainability in 21st century and beyond! Whilst the book itself can be read, displayed or framed, the new wraparound cover adds an educational element to the series, with entries for each panel of the concertina detailing the notable benchmarks in the history and mythology of aviation.

Selected to be on the Bologna Children's Fair 2013 Shortlist

"A beautifully produced concertina book that folds out into a 139cm panorama detailing the history and mythology of flight, has provided endless inspiration for questions and stories from all three of my children."
—Telegraph

"We liked the bold stylish retro look of the fold-out book, which pays homage to the bold patterns and geometry of early Russian constructivism, along with a nod to mid-century French commercial art. Another fantastic edition by the talented Nobrow clan."
—Easy Voyage

"High Times is an exquisitely designed and printed concertina book which folds out to a spectacular 4.5 foot panorama… It is a fantastic education tool as well as a dazzling work of art that can be enjoyed and savored by the entire family."
