Quite possibly Salgado's most famous & reprinted book. This is the 1st edition from 1993.  This book is a very special copy as there is a friendship message signed to a Susan. In addition this book was acquired on the occasion of a gallery show of this work with the artist in attendance, in the year of publication, 1993. The supplemental pamphlet "An Archaeology of the Industrial Age" is present with 3 show notices also included.

Signed 1st edition softcover in very good + condition with minor amount of discoloration around the edges of the pages not affecting the images (see photos). (NOTE; Most of the photos have an unattractive glare which is largely unavoidable photographically when the pages are allowed to naturally curl and are not flattened down which can cause long term damage to the book. You will not experience this glare in normal room lighting and can be certain this book is most beautifully printed)”
