Signed and inscribed by the author/photographer with thin black Sharpie on the blank first free front endpaper. "In this work I have taken old objects, no longer in use, and invested them with dignity, poignancy, and humor. When assembled, the pieces create a luminous and beautiful world of their own that is more mysterious, powerful, and exciting than if the objects stood alone. My hope is that these photographs will speak to your heart as well as delight your eyes, rekindling fond memories of your own." - from the rear outer cover. "This book is about objects found in dusty corners of barns, basements, attics or garages .or sometimes treasured family heirlooms proudly displayed. Most of these objects are no longer used, replaced by more modern equipment or by something more fashionable. Some are used as decoration. All of these things are visually interesting . silent souvenirs of life in a different era. This body of photographs is my response to these objects. Sometimes I photographed them as I found them .feeling that the light and the cobwebs wove their own quiet magic. Other times I felt the need to combine the objects to create a more interesting statement. Trained as a painter, I bring the same formalist concerns to photography .but now I create with lens and light instead of brush and pigment. Working intuitively, I arrange objects until some sort of balance is reached. Color, shape, texture, and other elements of design are all considered. I try to take the commonplace and invest the pieces with beauty, dignity, poignancy, or humor. Bringing these pieces back to life is my goal. What if these objects could speak to us of times gone by and tell us something about the people who owned them? On the following pages some do indeed seem to speak for themselves, while others are given voice through commentary, quotations, and poetry. My thanks go to those authors who have responded to these photographs by adding their interpretations to my own. - Betsy Wurl Mckean" - from A Note from the Photographer.
