Description: Memorable Life Photographs Edward Steichen RARE 1951 VG 1st Ed MOMA photojournal Funky Christmas / Everyday Funky These books etc. come from my father-in-law's estate. We have an entire weaving and yarn shop inventory to sell that was filled to the brim. This book was found in a locked glass bookcase in my father-in-law's yarn shop. This book is in VERY GOOD condition. The spine is unbroken. Actual front and back boards have minimal damage. No marks or highlighting in text. Pages are crisp, clean and unmarred. Cover lies flat. Stunning black and photographs. Illustrated, collectible, 1st edition. This book is in VERY GOOD condition. There is the usual scuffing of a book of this age. The only issue we see, is that the book has a clear covering over it and it appears that it is bubbling, and coming off, at the spine. Personally, we think you should just pull it off. Or not. Your choice. These pages are showing techniques that make award winning photojournalists. Everything from placement, to movement, and from abstract to the concrete. Much is made of contrasting ideas, like the rich and the poor or the powerful and the weak. There are entire sections just showing the range of emotions a photographer can get. Truly a great resource. These photographs were in a MoMA exhibit. Most are stunning and are illustrations of light and shadows. Truly awesome. This book is oversized and needs to be properly protected by cardboard to arrive safely. That takes it to the next postal rate. Sorry!
