"Mike Disfarmer's photographs were saved from oblivion by Joe Allbright of Heber Springs, Arkansas. Albright purchased the negatives after the photographer's death in 1959. Fourteen years later, in 1973, he brought them to the attention of Peter MIller, then editor of the Arkansas Sun, a weekly newspaper in Heber Springs. Miller published the portraits in The Sun for a year; recognizing the value of the work., he also sent a few prints to me at Modern Photography magazine. I share his enthusiasm and suggested that we join together to bring Disfarmer's work to the attention of a larger audience. This book is the result." (J. S., Acknowledgments).
