Between the Covers

Unbound. A collection of 119 photo negatives taken by Arthur Knight, along with all rights, of portraits of authors and screenwriters from the 1950s, including Aldous Huxley, Henry Miller, Ray Bradbury, Kenneth Patchen, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Louis L’Amour, and Philip K. Dick, whose photo included here was used on the first edition jacket of his science-fiction classic, *The Man in the High Castle*. The negatives measure 4" x 5" and are housed in individual sleeves labeled by Knight. They are accompanied by twenty-seven 8" x 10" proof sheets showing four images each; six 3½" x 6" sheets with one image each; two 8" x 10" photos of Huxley; and five 8" x 10" photos of Patchen. Most of the proof sheets are marked in wax pencil and numbered; the proofs of Huxley and Patchen have Knight's stamp on the verso. Overall fine with about twenty of the negatives with holes punched through part of the image but not obscuring any of the faces. A wonderful collection of vintage photographic negatives, with their usage rights. Further details available upon request.
