1933rif. 2105004Portland: Privately Printed & West Coast Printing & Binding 1933. First Edition. Soft cover. Near Fine. 1st printing. Folio 10 1/4" x 13 7/8" subtly but beautifullly decorated wraps. 32pp. Glossy stock. 12 b/w images image size 8 1/4" x 11 5/8" by Atkeson with titles by Manly. This are snowy winter photos taken in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. Atkeson 1907-1990 was one of the finest landscape photographers of the Pacific Northwest and he was widely honored especially in his home of Oregon. Many of his books were elegantly published by Northwest Graphic Arts Center. The photographs in this volume are so finely dotted half-tones that they almost look like as nice as photogravures. Of the twelve images one has a 4 1/2" hairline crease running to the edge of the sheet in the lower corner and this is the only reason we grade this copy down to near fine. A rare and desirable item by a master landscape photographer. This book found in only five libraries four in Oregon and the fifth at Yale. Privately Printed & West Coast Printing & Binding unknown
