Sobre este artículo

Scarce. Oblong album binding. Black cloth boards with screw fasteners at spine. 60 gelatin silver prints, 8" x 10.25" mounted on beige pages with printed captions.
Introduction written "by M. Charles Preston, New York City, ex-enlisted man, former CBI'er and co-worker with the author on Phoenix Magazine in Calcutta, India".
Photos taken by Clyde Waddell, "who was Chief Photographer for the Houston Press before entering the army, was flown to the India-Burma Theater in November 1943...". Waddell acted as personal press photographer for Supreme Commander Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten from 1943-1945. After that assignment, he resumed his work as a news photographer. The images for this book were captured by Waddell during his leave, "primarily at the behest of many friends who had been constantly asking him for photos of Calcutta scenes." He then received so many requests for copies of his photos, that this book was created.
The book is in Near Fine condition, with very light edgewear, very light beginning of foxing on some pages. Three of the photos have small tears, which are shown at the end of the listing images.
