Description
 
STEWART, Charles (photographs); VOX, Maximilien (preface).

Nus de Harlem. Photographies de Charles Stewart. Preface de Maximilien Vox.

Paris: Les Editions Prisma, 1961. First edition. Original printed wrappers. Some rubbing to covers, discoloration to bottom edge (of cover and some interior pages), crease to top right corner of front cover. Still a very good copy.

Description from PBA Galleries: "While “Chuck” Stewart’s photographs grace the covers of thousands of record albums, and his portraits of Black Jazz and R&B musicians like Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Ray Charles, John Coltrane, Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Lionel Hampton, Charles Mingus, Sonny Rollins and Sarah Vaughan have become classics, this book, apparently the first major appearance of his work, was published in France while he was still being turned down for advertising photo jobs because agencies said their corporate clients would not accept an African-American photographer."
