Sobre este artículo
University of Toronto Press: Toronto, 1962. First Edition. First edition, preceding the US edition. Signed by Yousuf Karsh on the front free endpaper, warmly inscribed in the year of publication to Hella Graber, nee Sacks, whom he described as his "librarian and technician for over twenty years" in his online memoir.
Laid in is a rare 1956-1957 Christmas card from Karsh and his wife to Graber, also signed in black ink by Karsh underneath a portrait of Helen Keller's hands; ballpoint pen inscription likely by his wife. Additionally laid in are newspaper clippings with a note from Karsh's secretary to Graber dated 1960, a handwritten note from Karsh's wife Estrellita to Graber dated April 27, 1963, and a blank greeting card reproducing Karsh's iconic portrait of Winston Churchill. Near Fine in Good dustjacket, chipped and worn.
An intimate association copy with interesting laid in ephemera.
