This finely produced work of photo collage from American photo-montage artist Terry Braunstein (b. 1942) was the result of her having won the National Book Award of the Library Fellows of the National Museum of Women in the Arts, in 1994.

Interior front cover with a tipped in library bookplate. In near fine condition overall.…
