Yes, I have some precious books I would never part with. Diary of Light by Kertesz. What a piece of work! And only 3,000 in the world. (Leica photographer for quite some time). And books by Sam Abell, Bill Allard, Salgado, Ansel Adams, Cariter-Bresson, Elliott Erwitt, David Douglas Duncan, Elliott Porter, Gene Smith, the Westons, Strand, and titles like Family of Man, etc. etc. I know my retirement will be fun when I can't even leave my room. I can wander the world (and history) through the eyes and lenses of the greats. ============= Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO Exaggeration is not all it's cracked up to be.
