Item description from seller

4°, 240 S., zahlr Abb u. einige montiertes Prospekte., OLwd. m. Plastik-OU., Tadell. - Basil Hyman, a keen amateur photographer, took hundreds of photographs of everyday life in Britain during the 1950s. The Lost Album is a nostalgic look back at this long-gone era, filled with photographs made during a time of enormous social change--just after World War II and before the 'Swinging Sixties'--and a wealth of ephemera: theater tickets and playbills, newspaper advertisements, ration books, and much more. Basil Hyman, a keen amateur photographer, took hundreds of photographs of everyday life in Britain during the 1950s. "The Lost Album" is a nostalgic look back at this long-gone era, filled with photographs made during a time of enormous social change?just after World War II and before the "Swinging Sixties"?and a wealth of ephemera: theater tickets and playbills, newspaper advertisements, ration books, and much more. Special inserts include actual facsimiles of some of these now-obscure items?talismans from a slower time, when formality, pride, and courtesy prevailed. There are special sections on two major events: the Festival of Britain in 1951, and the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. With brief, lively introductions and captions, this is a captivating snapshot of how people lived and played in Britain in those years. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. 2200 gr. Schlagworte: Photographie, Kulturgeschichte.…
