VERY BEAUTIFUL, IMPORTANT GERMAN PHOTOBOOK:
Martin Parr, The Photobook, vol 1, page 125

Together with 'Eisen und Stahl' ('Iron and Steel') by Albert Renger-Patzsch, 'Arbeit" by Dr. Paul Wolff and 'Fabrik' by Jakob Tuggener one of the most important books with industry photography. 

EXCELLENT, VERY FRESH (AND MUCH BETTER THAN USUAL) CONDITION.

According to Bill Jay, 'within a few years, E.O. Hoppé was the undisputed leader of pictorial portraiture in Europe. To say that someone has a "household name" has become a cliché, yet in Hoppé's case the phrase is apt. Rarely in the history of the medium has a photographer been so famous in his own lifetime among the general public. He was as famous as his sitters. It is difficult to think of a prominent name in the fields of politics, art, literature, and the theatre who did not pose for his camera.'

Verlag Ullstein, Berlin, 1930. First edition, first printing.

Original hardback with black paper, original grey cloth spine. 220 x 275 mm. 128 pages. Photogravure printing. 92 sepia photographs. Photos: Emil O. Hoppe. Foreword by Bruno H Bürgel. Text in German.

Condition: 
Book inside excellent, very fresh and very clean with no marks and with no foxing; much fresher than usual (often foxed and with marks). Book outside very fresh and much better than usual; light trace of use only, no remarkable defects. Overall very fine, much better and fresher than usual condition.

Great opportunity to purchase one of the most important books with industry photography -
in very fresh condition.

Between 1925 and 1938, photographer E.O. Hoppé traveled the length and breadth of Germany, recording people and places at one of the most tumultuous times in the country's history. He photographed movie stars and captains of industry, workers and peasants, and captured the birth of the Autobahn and UFA film studios in its heyday. He saw the rise of fascism, the creation of vast new suburbs, and the displacement of people from their traditional ways of life. With unprecedented access to the country's world-famous factories and industrial installations, he witnessed Germany as few others could - barreling headlong into the unknown. Moving, insightful, and deeply revealing, the full significance of Hoppé's German work has been unknown until now.
