Interior sheets are clean with good colour and only minor edge handling. Eight of the twelve plates have been photographed and confirmed present; the remaining four are believed to be in an uncounted stack and completeness is not confirmed. The plates in this copy appear unsigned (no pencil monogram found in the margins photographed).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Era\/Period: Published 1972; the twelve images date from 1951 to 1971\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Provenance: Inscribed by David Douglas Duncan \"For Cy and Dotty,\" dated 7-IX-72, Castellaras, France; descended in the Girard family, the current owner's family\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Subject: Twelve colour plates surveying Duncan's photojournalism from 1951-1971, including subjects captioned as a Moroccan potter, Tadjiks on Review in Russia, painted sheep in Ireland, a Balinese chief, Koya-san in Japan, Pablo Picasso, and Notre-Dame de Paris\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a personally inscribed, dated, and placed dedication copy of Duncan's 1972 Genoud portfolio, tying it directly to the photographer's own household in Castellaras and to the Girard family that received it. The plates are offset lithographs rather than photographic prints, and this copy's plates do not carry Duncan's pencil monogram found on some copies, so the appeal here rests on the inscription and family provenance rather than on signed plates. The folder shows real handling and water damage on the cover, while the interior sheets remain clean with good colour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VaultXL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64723630784883,"sku":"VXL-00507","price":438.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0989\/6283\/3779\/files\/a725b1e0-627a-4968-980f-ca23aa6c7673.png?v=1790181503","url":"https:\/\/vaultxlshop.com\/products\/david-douglas-duncan-portfolio-1972-inscribed-colour-offset-lithograph-plates","provider":"VaultXL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
