Between the Covers

Unbound. A collection of more than more 500 photographs and negatives from Bette S. Garber (1942-2008), whom *The New York Times* called the "Cartier-Bresson of American trucking." The black and white and color photos, taken while she was working for *American Trucker*, *Trucker News*, and *Roadstar*, date from the 1970s to the early 1990s and capture the trucker lifestyle with images of drivers, trucks, racing, social gathering, and support industries such as distribution centers, truck stops, farms markets, etc. The majority of the photographs are loose with a handful matted and framed, plus another 600 photographs of her childhood and family in photo albums or loose photo pages. Overall near fine with a third of the photographs with adhesive remnants on the rear from being removed from an album; another smaller group with tape remnants and minor wear.
