Source Photographic Review names 'Evidence' one of the 10 Greatest Photo Books of All Time

We are very proud to have published the 2004 edition of Evidence, the seminal conceptual photobook first published by Larry Sultan and Mike Mandel in 1977. So it's wonderful to see that Source Photographic Review has named the book one of the most important photobooks of all time - second only to Robert Frank: The Americans. Our reprint of the coveted 2004 edition will be available in April, 2017.

Source writes: "For the Photobook issue we have conducted a poll of people who have an informed opinion about photobooks. We have approached photographers, publishers, designers, booksellers, librarians, critics and curators, asking them to select ten books each. 112 have replied with 1,119 individual book nominations..."
