All of the work was taken with M cameras and there was a large review of the show in last Friday's New York Times. In the Oskar Barnack Room is Geoff Winningham's "Rites of Fall - High School Football in Texas." This is also taken with M cameras and is considered the classic work on high school football including the players, cheerleaders, audiences and people of the town. Winningham took 6 years to finish the project and it resulted in the book, "Rites of Fall: High School Football in Texas." The book is long out of print; however, we have about 12 copies each of the hardback ($60) and softbound ($25). The book is 175 pages and both the hard and soft editions are signed by Winningham. For the football enthusiast and/or Leica Camera person, the book is wonderful! Some of the pictures were exhibited at the Corcoran years ago. The books's preface is by the Texan, Don Meredith. Again, the show will be at Leica Gallery thru Oct. 24.
