Buckram. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. An individual publication in publisher Ziff-Davis' "Little Technical Library" series. Minor scuffing at top and bottom of buckram boards, elsewise a bright, clean, tight copy sans tears, stains, markings, discoloration, etc. From the author's Preface: "This little book makes no pretense of presenting all there is to be said about press photography. It should also be made clear that while the author was for three years Supervising Photographer of The Associated Press News Photo Service, none of his statements in this book are to be construed as carrying endorsement of equipment or materials referred to by The Associated Press itself. Nevertheless, it is obvious that such experience with the largest newsphoto syndicate is invaluable, and is here passed on to the reader with the hope that press photographers and ambitious free-lances everywhere may derive some benefit from it." CONTENTS (12 Chapters): I. News Photography Today. II. What Is A News Picture? III. Your Markets. IV. Your Camera Equipment. V. Special Sports Cameras. VI. Film Technique. VII. Making the Print. VIII. Flash Photography. IX. More Flash Photography. X. Getting Down to Work. XI. Photo-Reportage. XII. Reportage Equipment. PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in black & white photography with accompanying descriptive captions. Black buckram boards with gold gilt lettering on the front cover and spine. 112 pages. GN12.
