Previously, I had recorded some music for a CD and performed at a concert in Los Angeles both for breast cancer research, so the idea of continuing to raise awareness was forefront in my mind. I approached Flare with the idea of continuing to promote awareness, hence this book. I am extremely grateful to all those who gave both time and money to help make each photo happen and especially to all the women photographed here who were Made in Canada".

WITHOUT SANCTUARY: LYNCHING PHOTOGRAPHY IN AMERICA

Santa Fe, NM, Twin Palms Publishers., 2000, First Edition 1/4000. (ISBN: 0-944092-69-1) Cloth in Pictorial Dust Jacket, 4to, 211pp, 98 color illustrations. Designed by Arlyn Nathan and Jack Woody. "The Tuskegee Institute records the lynching of 3,436 blacks between 1882 and 1950. This is probably a small percentage of these murders, which were seldom reported, and led to the creation of the NAACP in 1909, an organization dedicated to passing federal anti-lynching laws. Through all this terror and carnage someone - many times a professional photographer - carried a camera and took pictures of the events. These lynching photographs were often made into postcards and sold as souvenirs to the crowds in attendance. These images are some of photography's most brutal, surviving to this day so that we may now look back on the terrorism unleashed on America's African-American community and perhaps know our history and ourselves better. The almost one hundred images reproduced here are a testament to the camera's ability to make us remember what we often choose to forget". This is the extremely unsettling book published in conjunction with a circulating exhibition of harrowing vintage photographic images of lynchings drawn from the collection of James Allen. A brand new, most handsome example of the 2000 Twin Palms first edition.

NOTHING PERSONAL - SIGNED PRESENTATION COPY FROM RICHARD AVEDON

Lucerne, SWITZERLAND, C.J. Bucher., 1964, First Edition. Silver Gilt Debossed Boards, Small Folio, np, profusely illustrated in b&w gravure. Designed by Marvin Israel. Text in English. "Nothing Personal" is Richard Avedon's strikingly beautiful 1964 collaboration with noted literary lion James Baldwin. The photographer's second book, its images primarily hail from "Harper's Bazaar" and other magazine editorial work from the fifties and sixties. With figures from politics, society, fashion, literature, and the arts, it is a veritable who's who of power of the mid-Twentieth Century containing many of Avedon's most famous portraits including Dwight David Eisenhower in close up, the fragile Marilyn Monroe, a smug George Wallace, the pregnant Ted Kennedys in the surf, and many, many more. These are beautifully reproduced in stark black and white gravure, with Marvin Israel's book design here every bit the equal of the legendary Alexey Brodovitch's contribution for Avedon's first work, "Observations". An internally clean and sound example of the 1964 C.J. Bucher first Swiss edition with an English language text lacking the publisher's slipcase additionally bearing the BOLDLY SIGNED PRESENTATION "For Dear .. with gratitude ever, Dick Avedon -" in black fountain pen on the verso of the front pastedown showing some mild brown staining to a few pages along the foredge of the textblock. The binding has a bit of play, and the glossy white boards show some overall wear, soiling and light age-toning with abrasions through to the cardboard at the tips. In addition, the paper covering the spine seems to have separated and subsequently been non-professionally repaired with two overlapping strips of black linen library tape run along its length. All in all, this is a sharper copy of this classic volume in hand than it describes here. It has been priced accordingly.

RICHARD AVEDON: MADE IN FRANCE - SIGNED PRESENTATION COPY

San Francisco, Fraenkel Gallery., 2001, First Edition 1/5000. (ISBN: 1-881337-12-X) Pictorial Boards, Folio, 56pp, 40 quadratone illustrations. In a protective clear acetate dustwrapper. This strikingly beautiful monograph stands as an important rediscovery of a small but elegant body of work in the career of one of the world's best-known photographers. The Richard Avedon images presented here, many for the first time, were made in Paris for "Harper's Bazaar" during the 1950s. What is particularly notable about this presentation is that the images have been reproduced to the exact scale of the engraver's prints made for Avedon by the master printer Andre Gremola, and are uncropped, on their original mounts (with all of the artist's notations on both front and back). They provide a remarkable portrait of the working methods of one of the most influential fashion photographers in history. This oversized book, measuring 12 x 15", has been printed without compromise using quadratone plates throughout. Produced in a very small print run, this sold out only a few months following its publication, and has become highly sought after. A most handsome example (cited on page 221 of "From Fair to Fine: 20th Century Photography Books That Matter" and page 122 of "From Fair to Fine 3") additionally bearing the BOLDLY SIGNED AND DATED PRESENTATION "For Mike with "remembrance of things past" / ever Dick / 2001" in the year of publication in black marker on the rear colophon.
