Folk Photography: The American Real-photo Postcard, 1905-1930 | Luc Sante
The real-photo postcard phenomenon of the early 1900s gave rise to millions of cards depicting the now-vanished world of small-town America. Combining his skills as both a chronicler of modern America and a historian of photography, Sante shows how these postcards offer a "self-portrait of the American nation," as well as mark a crucial step in the evolution of photography, paving the way for great 1930s documentary artists, such as Walker Evans. 127 photographs. Original.
