Photobook - The Teds - Chris Steele - Perkins
Softback Size: 28 x 20.4 cm Pages: 120 Illustrations: 72 black & white photographs Published: 1979 First edition Publisher: Travelling Light/Exit Stock number: 017749/0123 Price: £95 + P & P A very nice copy with a hint of wear to bottom edges, corners, and spine, light surface wear to covers - these minor flaws, are all fairly typical with this title because of the vulnerable silver foil papered boards. Inscribed inside. The Teddy Boys were a flashily dressed, rebellious and sometimes violent youth movement that originated in Britain in the '50s. The three - quarter - length Edwardian jacket with velvet collar, drainpipe trousers and quiff became a focus of male fashion which still holds cult status today. The Teds combines image and text to tell their story - - a fascinating tale spanning three decades. -

Photobook - Walker Evans - The Magazine Work - David Campany
Hardback Size: 32.5 x 25.2 cm Pages: 224 Published: 2014 First edition Publisher: Steidl, Germany Stock number: 017752/0123 Price: £45 + P & P Hardcover. Condition: Very good. First Edition. A very fine copy in illustrated white paper covered boards, without jacket as issued. Plates, printed in sepia, with long introductory essay by David Campany. Walker Evans was one of the most important and influential artists of the twentieth century, producing a body of photographs that continues to shape our understanding of the modern era. He worked in every genre and format, in black and white and in colour, but two passions were constant: literature and the printed page. While his photographic books are among the most significant in the medium’s history, Evans’s more ephemeral pages remain largely unknown. In small avant - garde publications and mainstream titles such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Architectural Forum, Life and Fortune he produced innovative and independent journalism, often setting his own assignments, editing, writing and designing his pages. Presenting many of his photo - essays in their entirety, Walker Evans: The Magazine Work assembles the unwritten history of this work, allowing us to see how he protected his autonomy, earned a living and found audiences far beyond the museum and gallery. -
