About This Item
First edition, first printing. A rare and collectible book, written by Charis Wilson (1914 - 2009), author, model and muse, and Edward Weston (1886-1958), photographer. (They were married between 1939 and 1946, while collaborating on this book, among other things.) The book shows little wear, just a small amount of shelf-wear along the lower edge and a 4 cm tear on page 87, professionally repaired by library conservator many years ago. No dust jacket, but the book is encased in a custom-made museum quality, acid-free, archival box, as shown in photos 1 and 2. The book is signed with an inscription by Wilson, dated 1991. Your purchase will also come with a photograph of the author, also from 1991 (photo #6).
The consigner of this book was a close friend of Wilson's. She also has a copy of the book Ruggles of Red Gap, written by Wilson's father, Harry Leon Wilson, which could be purchased in a separate transaction.
