'The Pond' is the only Gossage title I have. I've heard good things about 'Looking up Ben James - A Fable' too, but I haven't got around to picking up a copy yet.
Nice. I have 'The Pond' by him, and a Steidl monograph in the same series as the one you have, 'Should Nature Change' - a true great.
I just ordered Japanese Photography Magazines, 1880s to 1980s from Goliga books.

This meta-book has gotten a bit of positive attention in the past year and I have a special attachment to Japanese photography, as my interest in photo books began when I lived in Tokyo and enjoyed the rich publishing culture which continues to fascinate me tremendously.
I already own Steidl's The Japanese Photo Book 1912-1990 and I imagine these two will supplement each other well.

Both are/were quite expensive new, but the latter is long out of print and now unobtainable at a price point where I can participate.
I suspect both are made more as a public service rather than in expectation of profit. They are also elaborately executed and limited in their potential reach, thus I dared not wait too long to press the "buy" button as neither will be obvious candidates for a reprint.
Don't tease. More details, please.3 of my books are hitting the market soon.
One with an intro by Daniel Belanger.
Huge.
Just ordered Brett Weston's "Baja California" portfolio (Lodima Press) to dip a toe in that set. Given how good their "Edward Weston: Life Work" book is I'm expecting great things.
Don’t be surprised when you find yourself wanting the entire series.

Hi GLS thank you for the recommendation. Did you order directly from the US or is there a distributor in the UK or EU?
I was scrolling through the Stanley Barker site last night. Things could get expensive. I keep on seeing/hearing about various titles only to have them be out of print (Larry Fink Opening the Sky).
Nice. I have 'The Pond' by him, and a Steidl monograph in the same series as the one you have, 'Should Nature Change' - a true great.
The Shipping Forecast by Mark Power
On the off chance this isn't just a quirk of perspective, I checked the Nazraeli site regarding that book: 14"x17" same as the current "House Hunting."
It is the tallest book I own.
Just received a copy of "Early Sunday Morning" by Peter Mitchell - RRB Photo books Bristol.
Gorgeous little book, beautifully printed too. I will seek more from this publisher.

This thread reads like an AA group meeting where everybody has relapsed.
Quite a few of the photos are on his website.Anybody has a book from his Good Morning, America series? I'm interested, but they ain't cheap...
I haven't seen a Photrio thread dedicated to photobook collecting so I thought I'd start one.
Let's use this thread to discuss new photobooks you've purchased, share book reviews (photos of spreads, videos of flip-throughs encouraged), links to photobook collecting resources (blogs, review sites, YouTube flip-throughs and other book-related channels, etc), book sales, and anything else photobook-related you can think of.
I'll kick things off with news of an incredibly good book sale on now until June 23 from Yale University Press (no affiliation other than a regular customer). Books are 50% off site-wide (there are a few exclusions for out of stock books and pre-orders) and shipping is free. Probably one of the best sales I've seen in a long time and Yale University Press has published a huge selection of excellent photography and art books.
I just ordered five books (saved $130) but might go back and get a few more before the sale closes.
