THE UTAH PHOTOGRAPHS OF GEORGE EDWARD ANDERSON By Rell G Francis For the Amon Carter Museum of Western Art Fort Worth, Texas Fantastic Photo History of Mormons1979 -- BRAND NEW ISSUE THIS IS OUT OF PRINT. THESE WERE LAYING ON THE SHELVES OF AMON CARTER MUSEUM AND UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA. PRINTED IN 1979 IN BRAND NEW CONDITION WITH DUST JACKET. This amazing look at forty years of Mormon Photographer George Edward Anderson’s extraordinary record of Brigham Young’s Mormon stronghold. As you know, I search for old Mormon items by looking in attics and cellars, sitting on floors in old book stores and antique dealers. In the past, I found a story named Mirror of Zion which was a summary of Anderson’s lifelong photographic tribute to the Mormon civilization. The item solicited so much interest that I retraced my steps, research the story and found that the actual book was published by the combined efforts of the Amon Carter Museum in Ft. Worth, Texas and The University of Nebraska Press. To make a long story short and because I am like I am and was so impressed with the qualities of Anderson’s work, I called both institutions just in the chance that any of these books were up on some dusty shelf in a warehouse. Can you believe it, that was just the case. The librarian filled me in completely. There were 2,975 printed and she thought there might be some left somewhere. Three days later, she found the remaining few! In excellent condition with the dust jacket, published in 1979 at a price of 23.50. This was the only printing.
