The Vanguard - A Photographic Essay on The Black Panthers

Extremely rare hardcover issue, this copy being a publishers review copy with slips laid in. Amazing book documenting the panthers in the late sixties. Includes the free Huey rally in DeFremery, lots of Oakland activity, Kathleen Cleaver, Bobby Seal, Huey P Newton etc. A brilliant document of a pivotal moment in history. Scarce.

Jean Michel Basquiat - Downtown 81

Wonderful photo documentary of Bertoglio and O'Brien's film Downtown 81, the Fiorucci funded lower eastside masterpiece. Features Basquiat and his very early work, Maripol, Amos Poe, James Chance, Blondie, Madonna and lots of NY post punk faces. A superb document of a place and time that no longer exists.

A Class Apart - The Private Pictures of Montague Glover

Beautiful document of Gay life between the wars, before liberation, identity politics, and legalisation. Architect Glover was one of the only people to document homosexuality during the early 20th century, and after his death in 1983 thousands of photographs were found in his home, many of his lover Ralph, plus his other obsessions which were uniforms and rough trade. An accidental menswear classic, and a brilliant insight into life during the inter war years.
