Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Arthur (Usher) Fellig was born in Ukraine in 1899 (and passed away in New York in 1968), but became known by his pseudonym Weegee. He was one of the very first "photojournalists" to use police-scanner to enable him to arrive at crime scenes often before even the homicide detectives did, but he had preternatural senses, too. Other journalists, it is said, asked him if he used a Ouja-board to find the crime scenes, but though he said yes, he didn't know how to spell Ouja . . . Thus was born his professional pseudonym. This fine exemplar covers methods and processes such as photocaricature, kaleidoscope, use of mirrors and photomontage, infrared light, and the like. Sturdy, attractive, tightly bound, internally clean hardcover copy, with unbruised tips, neat and tidy paste-downs; not ex-library, with neither highlighting nor underlining. Bound handsomely in black cloth over boards, his likeness stamped in silver to front cover, silver lettering to spine. Bright and shiny dust jacket, illustrated, showing only very minor wear beyond rubbing to edges, spine head and foot, protected by a plastic coat, not price-clipped. Previous owner's address label inside front flap. [4], 5-128 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.
