Signed second edition of a masterful reworking of the 1940 original with 20 photogravures prepared under the photographer's supervision.

  • Paul Strand (American).
  • Photogravures hand-printed from the original plates on BFK Rives by Albert Delong.
  • New York: Da Capo Press, [1967].
  • Folio.
  • One of 1,000 numbered copies, signed by Strand. 
  • Photogravures.
  • Folded signatures and loose sheets, laid into stiff wrapper, enclosed in folding cloth covered chemise and board slipcase.


Strand took the original photographs in 1932-33 as a prelude to his work on the film Los Redes, and the 1940 edition, under the title Photographs of Mexico, was limited to 250 copies. This copy contains a prefatory note by Leo Hurwitz, new note for this edition by Strand, and a statement of homage by David Alfaro Siqueiros.
