Aggiungi al carrellodj. First edition. A unique collection of 24 gelatin silver contact sheets with 272 original photos by British biologist Charles Stonor, documenting the famous "Daily Mail Himalayan Expedition in Search of the Yeti" in January-June 1954, arguably the largest, most prominent hunt for the cryptid ever. Includes two photos of "Foot…prints of the Abominable Snowman," one of which appears in the published book. Other photos detail Stonor's travels through Nepal; he left Kathmandu in December 1953 ahead of the main party, heading eastward and looking for Yeti footprints, interviewing Sherpas, and documenting: the people, nature scenes, flora, and fauna. While (spoiler alert) the yeti was not found, two new species of bird were identified. Most of the photos are unpublished. Each sheet ca. 30x25 cm (ca. 12x10"), with nine to twelve photos, several with light leaks, so altogether with 272 good quality images, each approximately 2.25 x 2.25". With roughly 60 period white ink manuscript captions on recto of the contact sheets (identifying single photos or groups of photos); several photos with hand-drawn pencil crosses. Very Good overall. All sheets with period pencil or ink numbers, markings or captions on verso. The sheets are slightly wavy, several sheets with minor creases or tears on extremities not affecting the images. First edition. xii, 209 pp. with photographs by the author. Very Good, foxed along edges, in worn dust jacket.
