Limited editon Japanese publisher Kazuhiko Motomura has just released a book that consists solely of Frank's contact sheets from his legendary book, The Americans. The sheets have been enlarged so that each frame is about 2x3. That's, what, about double normal size? Price?? 1,500 bucks. But, wait, there's more. To qualify to buy the book, you have to agree to all of Motomura's previous publications, which would total about 7,500 dollars. More info at 5B4: http://5b4.blogspot.com/2010/03/robert-frank-81-contact-sheets.html BTW, you can also see the contact sheets Sarah Greenough's Looking In, which will only set you back 50 dollars at Amazon.? (You'll want to budget for a magnifying glass, however.? The contact sheets are normal size.) --John ****************************** John Edwin Mason, Photography: http://www.JohnEdwinMason.com Charlottesville and Cape Town
