First Edition (NAP) (Harry N. Abrams=NAP). 'With 100 photographs in full color.' Once listed, it appears this will be the Only signed copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. The book is flat-signed off the top edge of the front end paper. Both the book and the dust jacket are in excellent condition. I'll get to describing them in a moment. Here are some bits and pieces I have lifted out from an article about Mr. Rose in the New York Times after he had died in 2021, an article that quoted in part from another article that was written in the Times in 1997. 'Mr. Rose was that rarest of artists: one who doesn't chase after gallery shows or sales to deep-pocketed collectors. In a 1997 interview with The New York Times in advance of his Whitney Biennial debut, he explained that his low profile had been by choice. Paul Goldberger, the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic, wrote that 1997 Times article about Mr. Rose.'He lived a quiet, private life of creative brilliance, in seclusion in the center of the maelstrom of New York.' Aaron Rosenweig was born in 1936, in Manhattan. His wife said that his father, William, had never acknowledged him as his son and that his mother, Rose, was institutionalized at the time of his birth. Aaron was raised in foster homes. He adopted Rose as his last name when he became a professional photographer. His introduction to photography came when a portrait photographer he had met at one of those foster homes hired him as an assistant to hold lights and reflectors. Only in 1997, after some of his photographs were included in the Whitney Biennial did the broader world begin to appreciate his extraordinary body of work. Even after that, though, he didn’t exhibit often. His photographs in Coney Island didn’t see the light of day until 2014, when the Museum of the City of New York exhibited 70 of the pictures in a show called 'In a World of Their Own: Coney Island Photographs 1961-1963. He said 'All around me I saw people who became cynical and bitter when they didn't get the recognition they thought they deserved, and I wanted to be free of that. I wanted only to do my work, for myself, without any commercial influences.' That work consisted not only of taking photographs of the demolition of the old Penn Station in Manhattan, of rooftop scenes in New York, of seashells, of underbrush-- but also of printing his own images, using aged paper and chemicals that he mixed himself. Often the pictures were shot with cameras and lenses that he had made.' You can Google the full article by typing his name and the word photographer. The book begins with a essay by Alfred Corn titled 'The perpetuity of light.' The seven subjects (each with its own section) are Shells, New York City, Milky Way, Reflections, Unterholz, Sun and Clouds, and Sky. That's followed by 'A discussion with Aaron Rose' and then a Chronology. The black covers are exceptionally clean, the white lettering on the spine nicely bright. The cover edges and corners look terrific, no rubbing. The page edges look very clean, no soiling. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout. At the juncture between the rear inside cover and rear end paper you can see some white surface rubbing showing, but the rear cover is tightly bound. The front cover is tightly bound as well. The pages are exceptionally clean. I don't see any soiling. I'm not seeing any creasing. There are no markings. No attachments. And Mr. Rose's signature is the only writing. I've always had the jacket in a fitted protective cover. The jacket looks very clean. I don't see any conspicuous wear, no tears. The flaps are in excellent shape, very clean, no wear. The jacket is NOT price-clipped ($49.50), not clipped at all.…

Description de la boutique
Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
