First Edition. Hardback. Slip- Case. Very large folio hardback. pp 96. 24 by 18 inches. Circa 100 b/w photos. Original photo illustrated boards in photo illustrated firm slip - case. Donald Silverstein’s previously unpublished 1967 archive of Jimi Hendrix photographs. Number 52 of 500 copies. Blurb from publisher - "A collection of previously unseen Jimi Hendrix images by renowned portrait photographer Donald Silverstein (1934-75) taken in London in 1967. Donald Silverstein’s sole session with Jimi Hendrix produced one of the most important and well known photographs of the incendiary guitarist. Jimi stands, looking into camera, his jacket off, his shirt open, revealing a well defined torso. This powerful image originally appeared on a poster issued by Track Records, and has been heavily bootlegged subsequently. Hendrix fans who have seen that original poster will know that the contrast was notched up to 11 by the designer, and as a result it was very difficult to pick out detail. Seeing the photograph as Donald Silverstein took it, with intricate details revealed by the fine grain of the Kodak Verichrome Pan film that he loaded into his Hasselblad for the shoot, is a complete revelation. Earlier in the session Donald had photographed Jimi Hendrix flanked by Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, for a series of group portraits, one of which would be chosen for the inner gatefold sleeve of the 1 December 1967 UK release of The Experience’s second LP, Axis: Bold as Love, but for the most part, the session was about Jimi. Incredibly, almost nothing from this incredible shoot has been published, and so Can You See Me ? unlocks the amazing treasure-trove of previously unseen images contained within the Silverstein family’s archive. Can You See Me ? includes approximately 100 photographs throughout its 96 pages, and contains the very best of Donald Silverstein’s surviving archive of Jimi Hendrix photographs, with the vast majority of photographs previously unpublished. Can You See Me ? defies the normal ‘coffee table’ convention. Much larger than a traditional coffee table volume, it is slim and elegant at the same time. Can You See Me ? is housed in a beautiful custom slipcase which reproduces the front and back book cover art. All our publications seek to redefine the book as more than just a book – and as a piece of art in its own right. With this in mind, the cover of the book and slipcase have been deliberately left free of text so that nothing detracts from the power of the images." Fine. …
