Santa Barbara: T. Adler Books,. 2004. - This production, produced by noted graphic designer Don James, is the first of five portfolios of pioneering surfing photographs taken before World War II. It reproduces a series of shots of Bluff Cove surfriders taken by James over the summer of 1937 from a Brownie camera set up in the sand to the rather narrow focal point of the breaking waves. Oblong quarto. Four black and white prints hinged on archival mat board, housed in a box, with one leaf of text. A fine copy. The images are printed as continuous tone, with soy-based UV inks on 100% cotton rag, acid-free paper. Each print is mounted on an acid-free four-ply board with a numbered certificate of authenticity, and enclosed in a glassine sleeve. First edition, limited to 500 copies #188.
