Overall, a very nice, clean and presentable ex-library copy of this Helen Levitt classic. "Although Levitt's work never fit the definitions of social documentary, anyone who claims these photographs are not political is operating with a severely limited sense of that term. There are times in these images when innocence comes into conflict with power, as kids are slapped or dressed down by imperious adults, caught in that politically constitutive moment when imagination collides with reality." -- David Levi Straus CHECK OUT OUR STORE FOR MORE HARD TO FIND, RARE AND SIGNED PHOTOGRAPHY BOOKS, PHOTOGRAPHS AND ART
