What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

This stunning collection of black and white photographs by Tina Modotti, who lived and worked in the first half of the 20th century, reveals, along with her formidable compositional skills, her unrelenting leftist political agenda. A member of the Communist Party, Modotti was a long time resident of Mexico, and was in Spain during the years of the Civil War there. She also spent time in Berlin and Moscow, taking photographs and struggling for the Communist cause. Modotti died in Mexico City in 1942 at the age of 45. Her subjects, be they Mexican workers marching on May Day, a dock worker unloading bananas, or a still life "Bandolier, Corn, Sickle", brilliantly resolve the often fractious relationship between art and politics. These beautiful prints are juxtaposed with quotes from her writings and letters to mentor and friend, Edward Weston.
