Only Brooks Jensen's own portfolios are available, and some prints taken by his wife. I have two of his portfolios - Wakarimasen and October Seas, and both are very good value - exceptionally produced portfolios at a very fair cost. These are not for collectors as they have an unlimited print run - but for lovers of photographs, very enjoyable. Lastly these are all printed digitally, and not by traditional darkroom methods.
