$175.00 CAD

pp. 135, “A fascinating collection of portraits of the townspeople of Heber Springs, Arkansas. Disfarmer was not well liked by the townfolk but they came to him to get their photos taken. He made no attempt to elicit a smile or adhere to any other other convention of commercial portraiture poses. So the photos tend to be of people as they were; not as they might have been “photographed.” 135 pages; illustrated through out with b&w photographic plates; 10.25 x 11 inches.”
