Published by Abrams, 2001. Gray boards stamped in gray with photographic endpapers. With light shelf wear. A fine copy of this collection of 19th century photography. “Dear Friends is the first book to demonstrate how common it was for 19th-century American men to commemorate intimate friendships with a visit to the local photographer. Reproducing more than 100 never-before-published vintage photographs, this groundbreaking book provides evidence of a kind of physical intimacy between men that challenges the conventional view of the Victorian era. David Deitcher's provocative text combines historical research, social observation, and pictorial analysis to explore the nature of same-sex affection between men during the period.” See my auctions of RARE photo and art catalogs, Chicago history, art deco, photography books, art and more!
