Item description from seller

Oblong quarto, 203 pages, cloth. Scarce signed. Inscribed by Joel & Judith Herschman in 1987 on the endpaper to Lila & Ray. Joel contributed Part One of four parts, while Judith provided extraordinary editorial assistance "This book advances two ideas. First, alternative manners of depicting buildings were apparent from the earliest days of photography and continue to this day . Second, photographers consciously capitalized on the significant interrelationship between any pair of subjects isolated in a picture in order to make critical statements - Introduction". Extensively illustrated, and many of these appear in public for the first time.

Store description

Joyce And Company, established 1975, works out of an office near Chicago's Loop. There are usually 15-20,000 books on-site and available for browsing. Mr. Joyce was a founding partner of the former Chicago Rare Book Center, of Chicago and Evanston, Illinois. Proprietor Tom Joyce appeared regularly as the book appraiser on "The Appraisal Fair", seen on Home And Garden Television, HGTV. We still do appraisals on a wide variety of subjects, from literature to history, fine books, children's, presses, theology, law, medicine, maps, autographs. These topics are reflected in our inventory, and much more, including Sherlockiana. In addition to regional institutions nearby Chicago and Illinois, we have been able to place rare materials with the American Antiquarian Society, The Library of Congress, The Bodleian Library, Harvard and Yale Universities, the Presidential Libraries of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, et cetera. …
