<p>For years Bill Mayfield's photographs have been printed in many forms including advertisements, magazines, historical publications, newspapers, calendars, etc. This book is a collection of fine black and white images produced by one of the midwest's most respected photographers. Beginning in 1910 William Preston "Bill" Mayfield (1896-1974) flew with and photographed the Wright Brothers. Over sixty years and 100,000 pictures later he was still roaming the skies. His big view cameras captured the changing street scenes, the fashions of the time and industrial America. He recorded history as it was being made, capturing on glass plates and film some of this century's most famous faces and events. This 128 page (8.5"x10.5") book divided into five portfolios contains over 120 images from his photographic legacy. The photos selected from the Marvin Christian Collection were chosen to represent Bill's versatility with many cameras and his keen eye for composition. The text by Tim W. Hrastar gives the flavor of the man. He describes many of Mayfield's exploits with unforgettable characters, while creating his remarkable photographs.</p>
