New York, New York

  • Budapest: Maygar Helikon, 1972
By LORINCZY, Gyorgy
Budapest: Maygar Helikon, 1972. Wear to papered boards at spine joints, as typical for this edition, thus a close to near fine copy. Save for minute wear to spine, a near fine example of the photo-illustrated jacket.. First Edition. Small quarto. One of 5200 copies in paper covered flexible boards. A towering accomplishment by a virtually unknown Hungarian photographer, rescued from the scrap heap of obscurity by Martin Parr and Gerry Badger. Lorinczy traveled to New York in the pivotal year of 1968; in one small book he captured the city and the era, while foreshadowing every major trend in photography, from the Provoke movement to Warhol. (Parr / Badger, v1, 262-263).
