About: Published by Bruce Weber's Little Bear Press, this collection of stills is one of the greatest Hollywood photography books to come along in years! Shot between 1955 and 1987, John Hamilton's access to the era's greatest stars combines with his fly on the wall perspective to capture these celebrities in moments of typically unseen intimacy. There are extended sessions with (a very young and shirtless) Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Paul Newman, Elvis in Las Vegas, John Derek & Ursula Andress, Billy Wilder & Shirley MacLaine, Michael Jackson, John Ford & John Wayne in Monument Valley filming "The Searchers", as well as everyone from Jayne Mansfield, Barbi Benton, Annette Funicello & Edith Head to Isaac Hayes, Boris Karloff, Dean Martin, Kirk Douglas and Russ Meyer + Edy Williams frolicking in their pool. As with all of Bruce Weber's books, the quality of the design, paper and printing is impeccable. Not unlike the previous books, there was only one printing. Condition: Good/pre-owned. Light wear to book; some wear/minimal tears to edges of dust jacket. Sold as is/final sale. REF NYC
