Published for the History of the World by Henry Bill, New York. Fine early view of San Francisco, looking out over the City from the West towards Yerba Buena Island. Published only 5 years after the beginning of the Gold Rush in 1849, the view shows the boom town and remarkable growth of the City. Though by this time San Francisco was a bustling, robust settlement, it was still quite a small community, with the buildings merging rapidly into the rural surrounding hills. 16 x 9 inches, very good condition for age, quite clean and great color! Does have a very small repaired stub tear of 3/4 inch in the border margin (does not extend into lithograph).

RARE Bill Owens Suburbia 1st Printing Hardcover w/Slipcase 1973 PHOTOGRAPHY HISTORY BOOK. For sale is this rare, 1st printing, photography book from Bill Owens titled Suburbia. Bill captured his friends and neighbors in Northern California during the late 60’s/early 70’s; capturing what was the “American Dream” of the suburban life outside the cities. The ultimate symbol of the American Dream is owning your own house. This book is basically a time capsule of that pursuit with beautifully composed and organic moments Bill photographed and included captions/quotes from those he captured. All photos are black and white. Some have said this is the most important photography book of the late 20th century with many trying to copy Bill’s style here but never duplicating it. The book is in good used condition – not new, I’d say it was enjoyed. As you will see in the photos, the green cloth exterior slipcase has some edge/surface wear from being placed on/off a shelf or handled. The book itself with a green cloth exterior has no page tears, no missing pages and no 3rd party writing. The exterior of the book has some minor wear and a slight line indentation on the green cloth front, to the left of the title Suburbia. The back cover at the very bottom edge of the spine has a small tear as seen in photo # 8. The binding is used with rubbing and some pages are a bit lifted from the spin glue – so one must be careful with turning each page. Publisher: Straight Arrow Books in San Francisco – 1973. Please review all photos and ask any questions. Thank you for looking.
