Adams, Ansel; Plumb, Stanley

The Four Seasons in Yosemite National Park. A Photographic Story of Yosemite's Spectacular Scenery

Los Angeles, Times-Mirror Printing and Binding House, 1936. First Edition. First edition; 12 x 8 1/2; pp. [52]; brown pictorial wraps; glassine dust jacket; illustrated with color frontis plate, numerous black-and-white photographs, and a map; book with a small crease to lower right corners and minor age-toning to leaves - in very good to near fine condition; DJ with a few small cuts to front panel and some loss to back panel - in fair condition. A beautiful and early Ansel Adams collection of Yosemite photographs, the book was published by the Yosemite Park and Curry Company - founded in 1925 and one of the largest and longest operating concessioners in the national park system - and edited by their Publicity Director Stanley Plumb. It would go through several editions, in part due to the fact that Ansel Adams was quite unhappy with the representation of his images in print. Very good .
