Finding Rare Photographs and Ephemera at your local flea market and picker's market is not as hard as it seems if you know what you are looking for and if the price is right, a rare combination but with the Walker photographs, we got lucky. We have found lots of rare ephemera, rare books and rare photographs on our forays to Todd's Farm in Rowley, Massachusetts, but our recent acquisition of the works of Paul H. Walker, a sometimes photographer and a sometimes lawyer that lived and worked and photographed, large format Black and White nature photos as well as some indoor light study photos are being offered at our auction on eBayfor the next seven days.
What we found delightful is the large format pictures that Walker had snapped. He composed many of these photos after the classic style, sometimes looking to the nature photographs of Ansel Adams for inspiration, the effects of studying how Adams formated his pictures are definitive in Walker's works. As with all rare photographs and ephemera, we sell our products only online!
