Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, 208 pages. Between 1936 and 1941 Walker Evans and James Agee collaborated on one of the most provocative books in American literature, Let Us Now Praise Famous Men (1941). While at work on this book, the two also conceived another less well-known but equally important book project entitled Many A…re Called. This three-year photographic study of subway passengers made with a hidden camera was first published in 1966, with an introduction written by Agee in 1940. Long out of print, Many Are Called is now being reissued with a new foreword and afterword and with exquisitely reproduced images from newly prepared digital scans. Many Are Called came to fruition at a slow pace. In 1938, Walker Evans began surreptitiously photographing people on the New York City subway. With his camera hidden in his coat?the lens peeking through a buttonhole?he captured the faces of riders hurtling through the dark tunnels, wrapped in their own private thoughts. By 1940-41, Evans had made over six hundred photographs and had begun to edit the series. The book remained unpublished until 1966 when The Museum of Modern Art mounted an exhibition of Evans?s subway portraits. Record # 362455.

Contact seller5-star sellerEvans writes to Henry James biographer Leon Edel in a two page Autograph Letter Signed on one 8vo sheet of "The Century Association" stationery, New York City, Feb. 9, 1966. In 1966, Evans' photographic study of New York City subway riders was published. "Many Are Called," (1938-41) was photographed with hidden camera, first pub…lished almost 30 a after the images were captured and reissued in 2004. He writes, "May I intrude upon your scholarship if it extends to Henry James senior. I want to use a quotation which F. O. Matthiessen gives partially on p. 13 of 'The James Family' and I have no idea where to find it. Matthiessen writes, 'probably James best-known remark is that "to a right-minded man" a crowded horse-car is "the nearest approach to heaven upon earth"." Evans explains he seeks the exact quotation noting that, "F. O. M. does not give a hint of his source.knowing your erudition I do hope you may have in mind.do not take down any books yourself for my quest. I'll do that." He signs in full, "Walker Evans." Evans found the actual quote and used it in his photographic portraits of New York City riders titled, "Many Are Called." The correct quote reads: "To a right-minded man, a crowded Cambridge horse car is the nearest approach to heaven upon earth." [Walker Evans, "A Penitent Spy," Rathbone, 2000]. Evans left his post as editor of Fortune Magazine in 1965 and joined the faculty of Yale University.
