The print has about a 1-inch crescent-shaped crease near the subject's head, visible only in raking light, otherwise Fine. An exerpt from the text by David Levi Strauss (The Book of 101 Books: Seminal Photographic Books of the Twentieth Century): "In Tulsa, Clark first eliminated one of the rhetorical mainstays of documentary photography: the distance of the 'objective' observer from his or her subjects. The initial shock of Tulsa was that it was photographed from inside the story, and this changed everything. Tulsa, which was Larry Clark's first book, was published by Ralph Gibson's Lustrum Press, and the book was really a collaboration between Clark and Gibson." Signed by Author.…
