The second book by acclaimed female Japanese photographer Ruiko Yoshida, whose early seventies images of Harlem capture both the time and place with uncanny virtuosity. That this book has remained little-known in the West is a testament to the great breadth of postwar Japanese photobooks. 

Softcover with striking dust jacket and obi. 220 x 255 mm. First printing, first edition, 1974. Text in japanese and in english. Scarce near fine but the cover is warped due to the shrunk dust jacket. Rare copy.
