ROY DECARAVA PHOTOGRAPHS NEAR MINT 1981 PAPERBACK Friends of Photography PUB.

Seminal book in Modern Photography
Roy DeCarava is a major figure in post-war photography. Working almost exclusively in New York City, within the black community, DeCarava's photography exhibits the humanism practiced daily that he found in everyday life. This volume, issued in 1981, is a must have collection of photographs. DeCarava allows the viewer access to moments of love and exploration that not only document the moment, but renders it in a myriad of tones underutilized within the photographic community. The book contains essays by James Alinder and Sherry Turner DeCarava, which expertly shed light on the artist's inspirations and process.
This volume comprises one of three that survey DeCarava's work: The Sound I Saw, issued by the Studio Museum of Harlem in 1983; Roy DeCarava, A Retrospective, issued by The Museum of Modern Art in 1996, and The Sound I Saw, a conceptual work issued in 2001 by Taschen. The latter volume was written and wholly conceived by DeCarava in the 1960s but not published until much later.

Well built but slightly expensive.
Camera was too small for my hands. Works well, feels solid but TINY CAMERA!!! Feels like a solid toy!
Looking to replace a G9. Great reviews but too small.
Orb issue was a concern. Returned it, so its not an issue!

I would buy this pen again, but I already have 2! No need!
This pen is a great value into the entry market of fountain pens. It writes smoothly and is very durable. I have bought 2 of them and I'm very satisfied with the product.
