What an exquisitely reproduced book. This thing is huge so you will need strong arms and an equally strong coffee table! It is printed on a very heavy grade of Matt paper and the photographs are intertwined with the text in the early part of the book. There are copious reproductions of original magazine and book illustrations and an unusual surprise in the middle of the book. There is plenty of text to read as this is not purely a book of photographs. The images are printed in a warm black and white and in sepia where appropriate, all have a nice semi gloss look against the Matt White of the page. There are also many colour reproductions. Some of the images are reproduced quite small when they are accompanying text but those standing alone are of a good size. The comprehensive guide to the development of the Leica by Oskar Barnack and associates is fascinating as are the Chapters on the photographers that used them. This is a book that you can dip in and out of and has a useful biography of all the photographers featured. It is packed with some of the greatest images of the 20th century by its finest exponents alongside lots of rarely reproduced work. I think it is worth every penny of the purchase price and then some. It's a must have book for the library of anyone with even a passing interest in the development of 35mm photography through the invention of the minature camera I.e the Leica. Grab it whilst you can. Review: Great Collection Of Images - This, obviously, celebrate 100 years of Leica as a camera brand and even if you don't think much of their cameras, this book is treasure chest of images that you really don't see on the net or elsewhere. True there are some in there which are very well known but over all highly recommended. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 142,935 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 49 in History of Photography 130 in Photography Equipment (Books) 338 in Photography Collections & Exhibitions | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 135 Reviews | ## Images ![Eyes Wide Open! 100 Years of Leica Photography - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ySTZQ5NVL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautiful acquisition. *by T***A on 2 June 2015* WOW!
