Cited in Parr and Badger, The Photobook Volume 1, p. 260; Hasselblad, The Open Book, p. 272-273; Roth, The Book of 101 Books, p. 208-209. Good minus. Larry Clark was the subject of a major retrospective at the International Center of Photography in New York. This is the highly influential 1971 monograph that launched his career. "The initial shock of Tulsa was that it was photographed from inside the story, and this changed everything," says David Levi Strauss in The Book of 101 Books. "It created the possibility of a thoroughly implicated self-consciousness in documentary, a way to collapse the distance and include the observer all the way in, till death do us part, and it worked because of the mysterious and undeniable relation between photographs and death..." Because the early Lustrum Press books are notoriously fragile, this copy is, relatively speaking, good minus. Moderate edge wear and rubbing to wrappers. Substantial wear to the spine. First four pages have neatly detached from the binding and are laid in loose inside. Fragile binding. Tanning to page edges. Small stain to the bottom edge of the first page which has the Lustrum Press name on it. Images are clean and bright. Unmarked. Clark's first book, a cult classic among photography collectors.
