FIRST EDITION. A VERY GOOD COPY IN THE RARE DUST-JACKET. A KEY WORK IN NEW VISION PHOTOGRAPHY. One of the two books, with Foto-Auge, published around 'Film und Foto' - perhaps the greatest photography exhibition ever organized before and since: 'not since the great international exhibitions of the 1850s and 1860s had there been such a broad display of the photographic arts, intended not just to show photography but to examine its place in society' (The Photobook). The Open Book, pp.74-75; The Photobook, pp.98-9.
