Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. First edition. Fine in light brown "tweed" cloth with red titles to the spine, red headband and tail-band; in a fine photo-pictorial dust jacket. Walker Evans shot the photographs collected in Labor Anonymous as an assignment for Fortune magazine, which published a small selection of 20 images in its November 1946 issue, under the title "On a Saturday Afternoon in Detroit." The entire series of 50 photographs had never been reproduced until this publication. "For me Walker Evans is the master. I could have picked half a dozen books by him, but Labor Anonymous gets it. It was shot in 1946 and yet it is still so modern and relevant. It s a series of 50 images shot as workers in Detroit walked to work. A simple background, the camera never moves and most don t even see the camera all studies of the facial expressions and postures of life. Amazing. -- Giles Duley; It's Nice That." Oblong quarto (10 1/4" X 9 3/4") 164 pages; list of plates.
