William Eggleston's Guide was the first one-man show of color photographs ever presented at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the Museum's first publication of color photography. The reception was divided and passionate. The book and show unabashedly forced the art world to deal with color photography, a medium scarcely taken seriously at the time, and with the vernacular content of a body of photographs that could have been but definitely weren't some average American's Instamatic pictures from the family album. These photographs heralded a new mastery of the use of color as an integral element of photographic composition. Bound in a textured cover inset with a photograph of a tricycle and stamped with yearbook-style gold lettering, the Guide contained 48 images edited down from 375 shot between 1969 and 1971 and displayed a deceptively casual, actually super-refined look at the surrounding world. Here are people, landscapes and odd little moments in and around Eggleston's hometown of Memphis--an anonymous woman in a loudly patterned dress and cat's eye glasses sitting, left leg slightly raised, on an equally loud outdoor sofa; a coal-fired barbecue shooting up flames, framed by a shiny silver tricycle, the curves of a gleaming black car fender, and someone's torso; a tiny, gray-haired lady in a faded, flowered housecoat, standing expectant, and dwarfed in the huge dark doorway of a mint-green room whose only visible furniture is a shaded lamp on an end table. For this edition of William Eggleston's Guide, The Museum of Modern Art has made new color separations from the original 35 mm slides, producing a facsimile edition in which the color will be freshly responsive to the photographer's intentions.

Le Morte Darthur
Format: Paperback
Helen Cooper offers a new translation of the MS Winchester -- this is NOT Vinaver's text. The chapters include numbering from the Caxton text -- very useful.

Freshest breathe
I recently purchased a stainless steel tongue cleaner, and I am pleased to report that it is a great product. The cleaner is made of high-quality stainless steel, which is extremely durable and will not corrode over time. It is also easy to use and clean, as the cleaning part is made of a smooth and rounded end that fits comfortably in my mouth. The cleaner is also very effective at removing bacteria and food particles from my tongue. After using the cleaner for a few days, I noticed that my breath had improved significantly and that my taste buds were more sensitive. I was also surprised to find that the cleaner was gentle enough to use on an everyday basis without causing any irritation. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an effective and affordable tongue cleaner. Not only is the stainless steel cleaner effective and easy to use, but it also lasts longer than other tongue cleaners on the market. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for an effective and reliable tongue cleaner.

Exactly what I needed
These are solid and work really well. They’ve held up perfectly and as long as I don’t lose them I can’t imagine them wearing out for a really long time.
