GAEDE, Marc - Bordertowns

Title: Bordertowns
Description: La Canada, CA, Chaco Press, 1988. Hardcover. Edited by Marnie Walker Gaede. Small 4to. Black cloth with gilt lettering, pictorial dust jacket. (Ca. 100pp). Frontispiece, extensive full-page illustrations. Near fine/near fine. Ownership signature on half-title page. Superb and tight first edition of this black-and white photograph gathering that documents (to cite jacket front flap) "Deep in the heart of western American Indian country.. towns made distinct through their intensity and violence. These Bordertowns are situated on the periphery of the largest concentration of Indian lands in the United States.." Oddly and interestingly, this extra-illustrated copy bears tipped to the front flyleaf recto and verso four pristine modern (1975) heavy stock sepia-tone postcard portraits (each 4" X 6") by America's greatest Native American photographer ever -- Edward Sheriff Curtis. .
