first edition Cloth
1964 · Santa Barbara, CA
by Harry Callahan
Santa Barbara, CA: El Mochuelo Gallery, 1964. Cloth. Very Good +. A very sharp copy of the 1964 stated 1st printing of this first major monograph on the photographer Harry Callahan, with El Mochuelo Gallery's prospectus (an artistic, lavishly-printed, folded single-sheet) laid-in. Tight and Near Fine in its dark cloth, with bright, completely unflecked silver-titling along the front panel and spine. Customary light offsetting at the inner hinges created by the binder's glue (a minor flaw that seems to afflict virtually every copy), otherwise clean as could be internally. Folio, crisp black-and-white reproductions thruout. Also includes a very sturdy, Near Fine example of the publisher's printed slipcase. (Inventory #: 14602)
