Description:
slight wear and chipping to dust jacket primarily at edges.Rare copy of the first edition, first printing warmly inscribed by Charis and Edward in separate entries to William Holger. Holger met Weston through the f/64 group in the 1930s. He was an amateur photographer and a construction supervisor in San Francisco. Holger helped Weston build his home on Wildcat Hill in Carmel.
Laid in, formerly taped to inside front cover, is a photo postcard showing Ansel Adams photographing Edward Weston for the image used on the rear cover of the dust jacket for California and the West. Also included with this copy is a 20 page illustrated article discussing Weston's Guggenheim trips between 1937 and 1939. This article, most likely culled from an edition of U.S. Camera Annual is also inscribed to Holger from Weston.
