Suburbia (Signed First Edition).
San Francisco: Straight Arrow Books, 1972. First edition. Softcover. First printing. Owens' now classic first book of images. A relatively early photographic attempt to pull back the curtain on suburban life. Owens images are paired with brief captions from his subjects to ultimately form an ironic look at how suburban life might not be so wonderful. A near fine copy in illustrated wrappers with some slight bumping/creasing to the corners and with a small former owner signature of a museum curator to the front free endpaper Signed by Owens on front free endpaper. A pleasing copy of a book that is very prone to wear. (Roth 224-225: Parr & Badger v2, 24).
