Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 50 pages. Published in 2018. Memorial Gallery Catalog. The first and only edition. Published in a small and limited print run as a softcover original only. None of the copies was sold to the public. There is no ISBN. The Catalog is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by Stephen Daiter Gallery: Regular-sized volume format. Pictorial softcovers with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by various contributors. Text by Stephen Daiter. Printed on pristine-white, thick uncoated stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of Marvin E. Newman's 90th Birthday and Morris Engel's Centenary Year in 2018 (Engel died in 2005 at the age of 87). Presents "Noted Photos: A Collection of Vintage Photographs From The Photo League". The gallery's third publication on the latter, preceded by the landmark "This Was The Photo League" (2001) and "The Photo League At 75" (2010). Some of the finest and most representative images of The Photo League by such artists as Berenice Abbott, Lewis Hine, Marion Palfi as well as Marvin E. Newman and Morris Engel, among many others. Over the years, Stephen Daiter Gallery Chicago patiently collected these unjustly forgotten vintage prints and then facilitated their becoming The Permanent Collection of the Columbus Museum of Art. The initial acquisition of 170 prints has grown to more than 250 as of 2010. Began in 1936 to document the Great Depression, the League lasted for three decades, inspired by its belief in the power of photography to influence and effect social change by presenting "a true image of the world as it is". It was hounded for the same reason during the McCarthy-era witch hunt, its eventual demise sealed by the ensuing Cold War. But the photographs live on as they "resonate not only as stories from the past but also as striking works of art that transcend the written record. They are potent reminders that many of the issues depicted burden our world today" (Catherine Evans). An absolute "must-have" title for Photo League collectors. This Memorial Gallery Catalog is now collectible. Featuring some of the finest and most representative images of The Photo League by such artists as Berenice Abbott, Lewis Hine, Marion Palfi as well as Marvin E. Newman and Morris Engel, this is the gallery's third publication, preceded by the landmark "This Was The Photo League" (2001) and "The Photo League At 75" (2010). As far as we know, this is the only copy of the First Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: None of the copies was sold to the public. A rare copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with black-and-white plates. Some of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. A fine copy.

Prima edizione Copia autografata
Softcover. Condizione: vg- to near fine. First edition. Quarto. 95, [1]pp. Black and white photo-illustrated wrappers. Signed, inscribed and dated on the title title page in black ink by the author. This work is photographer Marion Palfi's (1907-1978) powerful photographic expose of the suffering and neglect of children in poverty in United States. Images here also address the issues of race relations, hate groups in American, general socio-economics, crime, education, and youth incarceration during the period. In 1946 Palfi was awarded a grant from the Rosenwald Fellowship to begin a project documenting the hardships faced by children and youth in America at the time. This photographic study resulted first in the exhibition "Children in America", which opened in January 1949 at the New York Public Library, and then this publication in 1952. The work focuses on children of all races in America, and is considered among the first works of its kind by a white photographer to examine the link between racism and poverty. The book is profusely photo-illustrated throughout with b/w photographic-reproductions with accompanying text captions. Palfi was noted throughout her career for use of photography as an instrument of social change and a focus on equity, opportunity, and justice. She was known for her socio-political activism and her work was featured in the Edward Steichen's landmark photographic exhibition "Family of Man", in 1955. For her work she received a Guggenheim Fellowship (1967) and a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship (1974). Minor to light rubbing to extremities, including some rubbing and light creasing along the hinges. A tiny chip to the bottom right corner. Back cover with some small chips along the right side, and a 1/2 x 1" abrasion, resulting in loss of image. Interior clean, with book block tight. Binding in very good-, interior in near fine condition overall. Quite scarce. Protected in modern mylar. * In the December 10th, 1952 edition of her nationally syndicated newspaper column "My Day", First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt wrote about her experiences reading Suffer Little Children. She writes: "I have just finished reading and looking at 'Suffer Little Children' by Marion Palfi and published by the Oceana Publications of New York City. The photographs in the book tell the story of children. This is a book that nearly all of us in the United States should look at with great care. There is some text in it, but the pictures are what will really remain with you. They are completely unforgettable. The reason none of us can fail to look at this book with care lies in the fact that these children are our future citizens, and we must know how they are growing up and what are their opportunities.".
