Photographs by Susan Meiselas. Original Interview Excerpts. Essays by Sylvia Wolf and Deirdre English, which reflect on the importance of the work within the histories of photography and feminism.

Presents a stunning new edition, not just a re-issue, of Susan Meiselas' masterpiece. "From 1972 to 1975, Susan Meiselas spent her summers photographing and interviewing women who performed striptease for small town carnivals in New England, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. As she followed the girl shows from town to town, she portrayed the dancers on stage and off, photographing their public performances as well as their private lives. She also taped interviews with the dancers, their boyfriends, the show managers, and paying customers. Meiselas' frank description of the lives of these women brought a hidden world to public attention. Produced during the early years of the Women's Movement, 'Carnival Strippers' reflects the struggle for identity and self-esteem that characterized a complex era of change" (Publisher's blurb) . In the intervening period, so much has happened, but this book has lost none of its raw power and beauty. A masterpiece, this is a "must-have" title for Susan Meiselas collectors. <b><i> This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed, placed, and dated in black fountain pen on the title page by the photographer: "Susan Meiselas Chicago 11/6/05". For Meiselas, the place and date when she signed a particular book is integral to the signature, not an afterthought or addendum, and she rightly insists upon it. Laid-in is a copy of the Exhibition Catalog, "Susan Meiselas: Intimate Strangers", which juxtaposes Meiselas' "Carnival Strippers" with her recent collection, "Pandora's Box". It is also very prominently and beautifully signed in black fountain pen on the photographic reproduction that she used for the title page of "Carnival Strippers". This title remains available in multiple subsequent printings. This is the only such signed set available online and has no flaws, a pristine beauty. A rare signed set thus. </b></i> 78 black-and-white plates. Susan Meiselas' "Nicaragua" was selected as one of the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". One of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. A flawless collectible set. (SEE ALSO OTHER SUSAN MEISELAS TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 3882439548. Signed by Author.
Meiselas, Susan. CARNIVAL STRIPPERS. Farrar Straus and Giroux: 1976
ISBN: 0-374-51381-3 Very Good
150 pages, illsutrated with full page b&w photographs. "Far from Times Sqaure, far from North Beach, Rust Street, Bourbon Street, and the Combat Zone, attached to the small carnivals that travel though rural New England and the South, are girl shows that make their urban counterparts seem innocent by comparison. During a three-year period, photographer Susan Meiselas followed several of these shows. Here are 73 provocative, often shocking photographs and a text culled from over one hundred hours of interviews with the dancers, talkers, and managers." Some wear at the edges of the softcovers, text and photos are in fine condition. VERY GOOD SOFTCOVER. First printing Stated Soft Cover 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall, oblong
