Found in the Wall Street Journal—LaPorte book
May 6th, 2006 by Larry SmithThe Wall Street Journal offers a sweet praise for Found magazine co-editor Jason Bitner’s book of found photos, LaPorte, Indiana.
Read the WSJ review here (scroll down a bit to find it). Here’s a small bite of the short review:
Though the book yields motifs — couples, siblings, pearl necklaces, buzz haircuts, bouffant hairdos, horn-rimmed glasses — the faces appear anonymously, each a souvenir from the 1950s or ’60s.
Check out SMITH’s excerpt with an intro by Bitner and a bunch of great photos.
