Unique Markings: The front free endpaper bears the author’s signature and the number “37.” Staging Pictures: Early Polaroids presents Robert Stivers’ formative Polaroid work — intimate, moody, and carefully composed images that blur the boundary between staged narrative and dreamlike memory. These early instant photographs reveal the seeds of the romanticism, chiaroscuro, and cinematic sensibility that define Stivers’ later fine art photography. A must-have for collectors of contemporary photographic monographs. DJ. E5.
