Seller's Description:
Like New. Size: 9x8x0; Celebrated eastern Pennsylvania anthracite region photographer George Harvan's compilation of Panther Valley miners. AZ Review: "The Coal Miners of Panther Valley is a photographic tribute to the last generation of underground coal miners in the Panther Valley of Pennsylvania's anthracite region. The images depict the miners at work in the harsh, gritty, often-dangerous environment of the mines, yet at the same time they show the pride that miners took in their profession. Harvan's camera also captured the miners at rest at the end of the work day and the sadness brought about by the closing of the mines. Each image is a vision of power and pathos, taken by an award-winning photographer who shared the miners' lives underground. The striking photographs in this volume have been printed as duotones on high-quality paper to capture the full intensity of Harvan's images. This book was originally published to accompany a major exhibit of Harvan's work at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Curator Ricardo Viera's interview with Harvan is included. An essay by Professor Thomas Dublin of SUNY Binghamton places the photographs in their historical context. An essay by Harvan, 'Witness to a Closing, ' records his thoughts on the closing of the mines." Includes detailed notes on each of 37 plates. Uncommon. 48 pp. 10" x 9". Tight, immaculate copy. Extremities crisp. Unmarked front to back. Photographs of or additional information about this item are available on request. All inquiries answered promptly.
