New York: J.J. Augustin, 1945. Boards. Very Good +/Very Good. A solid copy of the 1945 1st edition of this renowned examination-in-photographs of the Ballet Russes by the legendary Russian-born designer and photographer Alexey Brodovitch (who, famously, was also the art director at Harper's Bazaar for some 25 years). Clean and VG+, with very light wear to the bottom and top-edges of the gray boards. And in a bright, very presentable example of the fragile dustjacket, with customary wear along the spine and just a touch of light chipping along the spine ends, the tips and at the rear panel's lower-edge. Internally clean as could be, with no writing or markings of any kind. Oblong quarto, the text by Edwin Denby. Purportedly 500 copies issued, although, given the book's continued scarcity, it's been thought that this number many be inflated.
