The Photobook Thread

I just received a copy of Sally Mann’s A Thousand Crossings that I found brand new at the Peabody Essex Museum bookshop for $85, which is the book’s MSRP. Most used copies I’ve seen are selling for $120-$150. I’ve only had time for a cursory flip through but it looks very well done. A big book at over 300 pages.

I also recently picked up a copy of Yamamoto Masao’s Small Things in Silence. Really beautiful work in a nicely produced package.

I was in Providence, RI last week and picked up Bernd and Hilla Becher: Life and Work and Irving Penn's Small Trades. Both books are out of print and can be hard to find, much less at a reasonable price. Also, nice to shop at brick and mortar bookstores.

Waiting impatiently for Canada Post to drop on my doorstep the two books I bought online last week, Todd Hido's Intimate Distance and Richard Misrach's Crimes and Splendors.

Took me these two to realize how much subscribing to newsletters from book stores that specializes in photo books is not good for my bank account.

Been there! On that subject, did you see there's a 30% off sale on all books at Thames and Hudson?

You're THIS CLOSE to getting on my ignore list !

Seriously though, this was tempting. But I have a Mark Ruwedel book waiting for my next paycheck in an online shopping cart, so it makes passing this a bit easier.
