SEEING THE UNSEEN BY ULTRA HIGH-SPEED PHOTOGRAPHY. SEEING THE UNSEEN BY ULTRA HIGH-SPEED PHOTOGRAPHY Publication: Boston: Charles T. Branford Company, 1954 Edition: Second edition. Color frontis and b&w plates.

A fine copy in the color illustrated dust jacket that is missing a few tiny chips at the edges and has three short closed tears. Harold Edgerton was the inventor of the modern electronic stroboscopic flash. His stop action photographs on a variety of scientific disciplines, display an accomplished visual aesthetic and a wonderful sense of humor. With both undergraduate and graduate degrees in photography with an emphasis in photographic book production, in 1976, it was an easy leap for me to open a book business concerned with all aspects of photography, from the artistic to the technical manuals of the nineteenth century. - Andrew Cahan, ABAA, since 1985.
