Tattered and Lost: Vernacular Photographs

Tattered and Lost: Vernacular Photographs

Are you fascinated by vintage snapshots? Do you look at old photographs and wonder about the stories they tell? Then Tattered and Lost: Vernacular Photographs should be of interest to you. The book contains ninety-three vintage photographs from the authorâ€™s collection. Photographs play off each other on facing pages asking the viewer to come to their own conclusion as to what they are looking at. Included is a photo of the Pennsylvania Railroad S1 steam locomotive, designed by Raymond Loewy, on display at the 1939 New York Worldâ€™s Fair. And one of the few known copies of a photo taken by Rudolph Dâ€™Heureuse in 1863 proving there were indeed camels used by the U. S. Cavalry is included. So take a step back in time and visit with some folks who long ago smiled and said â€œcheeseâ€ never knowing how long those smiles would last.
