A Time It Was, by Bill Eppridge. (Photos by C-M.)
Two nights ago, as part of my oh-so-busy social calendar (which includes standing appointments at the Los Hermanos taco stand), I dropped in on former Life photojournalist Bill Eppridge’s book party for the release of A Time It Was in the East Village. In addition to consuming more than my share of wine and amazing cheese, I also managed to pick-up an extra copy of Bill’s book, which he was kind enough to sign for me. In honor of the beginning of the end of Election ‘08, I’m giving away this signed copy of a book that covers another historic election. It’s a lovely hardback tome of Bill’s photographs from Robert Kennedy’s ‘68 campaign. (See an online excerpt on Vanity Fair’s website.) The candid shots are a wonder to behold.
Leave your name (or pseudonym) in the comments and we’ll pick a winner at random next week. (Update: I understand that the book is now on back order…even more reason to sign up!)
Photos from the book party follow the jump.
