Notes11x8½ inches, 24 halftone illustrations. Signed Exhibition catalog for a show that presented photogravuryes from "Camera Work" next to original prints of the same images, rendered in platinum, gum-biochromate, and other processes. Peterson's essay covers the history of the magazine, Stieglitz's use of photogravure, and the idea that the gravures were a type of original, due to the frequent use of the photographer's original negative and the quality of the printing. The catalog's understated design echos that of "Camera Work", with old style typography, open space, and the use of black and red ink. Printed in a single edition of 600. This copy signed by Peterson. Fine Condition
