[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have a copy of the reissued version of the HCB book, purchased directly from Steidl, which, very strangely, as I found out after I received it, is a state of the art photocopy of the original. Very weird, never seen anything like that being pulled off before. The prints are nice, but the prices being bid are a bit too rich for my blood. With the fine art market where it is today, it is better to stay away, or pick up prints that we personally like by relative unknowns.
