Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: g+. First edition. Folio. 126pp. Gray quarter cloth over gray paper-covered boards with gilt- and blind-stamped title on cover, gilt lettering on spine. Photographic endpapers. Published on the 50th anniversary of the Dutch timber factory Bruynzeel. The company was founded in 1897 by Cornelis Bruynzeel Sr. Profusely illustrated with b/w reproductions of photographs by Carel Blazer and 25 reproductions of drawings in various color tones. Blazer was a leading figure in the 'Underground Camera' and the radical GKf group of documentary photographers. "Blazer's pictures are stolidly conventional in any case; the book's radicalism lies in its design, and the way in which the images are incorporated into the total graphic package. One could question whether it is a photobook in the strict sense, but it is clear that the book's primary message is carried by photography, and the graphic design -however innovative- exists to provide a framework for the photograph's display and the book's ideological message. As is typical of many company books of the period, that ideological message presents man and machine as two aspects of a single entity." (Parr & Badger, The Photobook: A History, Vol. II, p. 187). Design by Jan Bons and Jaap Penraat. Text in Dutch by Martin Redeke. Binding with light wear along edges, bumps at upper right corner and spine. Sunning and light foxing of endpapers. Name of Henk van der Meijden, Dutch journalist and theater producer, on front endpaper. Age toning to outer edges of interior pages. Binding and interior in overall good+ condition.

From The Photobook, Volume II, by Martin Parr and Gerry Badger: "Almost as much as the Soviet propaganda books of the 1930s, postwar Dutch photobooks were total products. That is to say, the photographers were often just part of a larger team that included writers and graphic designers, with no single element having prominence over another.This was particularly true of company books in the 1950s and 1960s, but the trend was apparent even by the late 1940s, as seen in this fine early example of the way Dutch graphic designers eagerly grasped the opportunities that had been cut short by World War II. The photographer for 50 Jaar Bruynzeel was Carel Blazer, a leading light in the 'Underground Camera' and the radical GKf Group of documentary photographers. As such, and as a member of the Dutch Communist Party, his involvement in the production of a commercial company book may seem contradictory, but apart from the obvious reason of making a living, reconstruction was the main priority in postwar Holland, and as Bruynzeel was a timber and building products company, commerce and communism had overriding motives in common. Blazer's pictures are stolidly conventional in any case; the book's radicalism lies in its design, and the way in which the images are incorporated into the total graphic package.As is typical of many company books of the period, [this book's] ideological message presents man and machine as two aspects of a single entity. The complicated services and communications systems of the factory are compared to the human body with its arterial and neurological systems. In a famous double-page spread, ducting and pipes look like arteries or nerves, either feeding or cleaning the body corporate." (Martin Parr & Gerry Badger).
