Yours Ever.. The Dog: 104 Unique Studies

March 21, 2010
This is a delightful old book, published in 1949 by the Avalon Press.
“This assembly of pictorial eloquence with apt titling has been collected and sifted during some three years from international sources, Many of the remarkable dog-studies came from professional photographers, but as many arrived (in answer to advertisement) from amateurs who chanced upon an inspired moment for taking snapshots of their dogs. The link between the 104 variegated subjects, comprising some 60 breeds and cross-breeds, is that none are posed and all are acutely expressive.
The sources drawn upon for the engaging plate-titles range from Shakespeare by way of Blake, Kipling, and Mr. Winston Churchill, to Mona Lott, the authors of popular songs and the originators of colloquial sayings.”
