Description:
n.p.: Independently published, 2021. First Edition. Soft cover. Very Good+. Print-on-demand book apparently but this copy purchased immediate after issue. Pictorial wraps. 603pp. Illustrated. Maps. This is a superb book describing in great and intricate detail the study and survey of the P-G film site by the authors and other individuals in 2010-2012. Over the decades uncertainty had naturally evolved as to the precise location of the filming of the female sasquatch by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin in 1967. A team of men went in and with arduous technical work re-established the location studying everything pertinent from Mother Nature and original visual information as well as early map assessments and photos. Only your bookseller has read this copy (carefully) and there is one ink note he made in the text, referenced also in ink on the ffep. This copy is offered to you from a genuine bookseller. Vg+ copy.

Portland: Charles H. Belding, 1970. First Edition. Hardcover. Collectible Fine/Very Good. 1st printing. Quarto/nearly folio size cloth & boards. 186pp. A great display of the fine color landscapes by two fine photographers, the accomplished Ray Atkeson of Oregon & the famous David Muench noted for his photos of the desert and mountain Southwest. This is a truly rare copy signed (not signed to anyone) by both Atkeson and Muench, on the title page. I challenged you to find another copy thus. Fine in dj which has some vertical shelf rubbing on it, but has no tears or chips. If you collect modern (1950+) western landscape photography, this should be on anyone's high spot list.
