The 9 inch high by 13-3/8 inch wide image is a close-up of a tray labeled "Warrants To Be Canceled" next to what may be a teletype (or possibly an adding) machine with a roll of tape feeding from a spool through an unseen printer. The photographer's name and credits "Copyright by Charles Harbutt Magnum Photos Inc..." are stamped in black on the verso. The photograph is further annotated in pencil on the verso: "69-55-17/12". There is minor darkening to the top of the right margin and the bottom corners are lightly creased. There is a light crease in the image near the top right of the print. Two small rectangular pieces of tape have been removed from the bottom margin leaving minor glue remnants and rubbing.
Born in Camden, New Jersey, the American photographer Charles Harbutt learned his skills from his membership in the Teaneck, NJ amateur camera club. Influenced by modern photojournalism, he contributed images to major magazines throughout the US, Europe and Japan. While working for the Catholic magazine "Jubilee", Harbutt's documentation of social and economic disparities inspired the Castro underground to invite him to document the Cuban Revolution. A member of the international photography cooperative "Magnum Photos", Harbutt twice served as its president. He joined the faculty of New York University's Parsons School of Design as a full professor and was a guest artist at numerous other Universities, including MIT. His work has been exhibited at major museums including the Museum of Modern Art and The Library of Congress. Good .
