About this Item

This is not a book. The original pamphlet distributed by Jacob Holdt at his lecture titled "American Pictures" and held at the Sol Goldman YM-YWHA Auditorium, NYC, on February 6, 2000, along with the venue's poster advertising the event and half of the admission ticket. The presentation by Holdt was a multi-media documentation of hitchhiking across America for five years with his dog and camera, covering more than 100,000 miles and 400 abodes, all made possible by selling blood twice a week. The photographs were first seen in his book of the same name. On one side of the pamphlet is an introduction that deals with white racism and declares "the 'show' is oppression, not entertainment." The other side has a text piece by Holdt about the book, a poem by Nis Petersen, and an order form. C-fold; photo-copy; 6 pages; 4 b&w illustrations; 4.75 x 8.5 inches. Poster: photo-copy; 8.5 x 14 inches; with a fold/crease. Condition: Fine pamphlet. LAID-IN is an interview with Holdt. Will be sandwiched securely between stiff layers of cardboard and shipped the next business day. Seller Inventory # 23996
