No dust jacket as issued. 40 quadratone illustrations. Made In France is a beautifully reproduced selection of work prints by Richard Avedon. Created in Paris for Harper’s Bazaar during the 1950s, many of these images are published here for the first time. This body of work is a significant addition to the oeuvre of published Avedon images, complemented by the history surrounding the production of these particular prints. Each was made for the photographer by master printer Andre Gremola, and are reproduced to the exact scale, on their uncropped, original mounts. Avedon’s handwritten notations and crop lines provide a rare glimpse at his exacting working methods. After the vintage books Observations and Nothing Personal, probably the most important sought after Avedon title. Very Good. Light wear to the board edges. Tiny right angle crease to the upper right hand corner front board. Scratches to both boards visible in the light. Little soiling to the side fore edge. Little scuffing to the bottom fore edge. Internally, hinges sound. Binding tight. Hint of tanning to page edges. Tiny crease with a small ding to the bottom edge of the first four pages. Not obtrusive. Images clean and bright. Unmarked. Gorgeous. Newspaper article laid in. Proud to own. A wonderful and fascinating book and a true collector's item.
