photo books lost in California wild fire

Fire Loss

Toronto. The local news focusses on the loss of life and property in the horrendous California wild fires but as sad as these losses are, other losses occur too.

George Dunbar sent me a note that he had spotted on the British Journal of Photography website – an article published November 21st about the California wildfires.

The fire incinerated Dutch collector Manfred Heiting’s library of some 36,000 photo books, including many rare volumes. Have a read and weep at the loss.
