About This Item
New York: Harcourt Brace, 1929. First edition. Hardcover. Number 901 from an edition of only 925 copies. The first major monograph on Steichen. A stunning production which shows the wide range of his talents and includes portraiture, abstractions and pastoral scenes. A clean and tight near fine copy in cloth boards and with some very faint scattered foxing to the page edges in an about very good example of the scarce tissue jacket that is also foxed and with a number of chips and tears. Lacking the very scarce slipcase. Signed by both Steichen and Sandburg on the limitation page. A very nice copy of this classic. (Roth 54-57) This is a heavy and oversized book and will require extra shipping.
