Magnum Photos Pa (Photofile)

The classic Photofile series brings together the best work of the world's greatest photographers in an attractive format and at a reasonable price. Handsome and collectible, the books each contain some sixty reproductions, plus a critical introduction and a bibliography. Magnum was the first cooperative photo agency, created by the photographers themselves.

Magnum photographers are united in their basic understanding of journalism and a humanistic view of their fellow beings. 72 illustrations in color and duotone.
