While at Harmony Books on Franklin Ave in Los Angeles this past weekend, I spied an Elliott Erwitt book that was inscribed, "To Ralph Gibson - an accomplice in crime. - Elliott Erwitt".

Made my day...

I got a second copy on photographic theort by CE Kenneth Meeks over the weekend inscribed 'To Ken Jr. With progress'. I wonder.

It was Erwitt's Recents Developments book (French edition possibly?) and it was priced at $125.

No, I didn't buy it...

I just bought an Irving Penn Passages, so I'm laying low for a bit...
