Attributed to family of Alvin Langdon Coburn
Provenance: Found with lot 150 and other Coburn books from George Chamberlain (1917-2004) legendary book dealer, founder and longtime owner of The Antiquarian Shop, Scottsdale, Arizona. I found these 12 circuit photographs in a collection of Alvin Langdon Coburn books and original signed or monogrammed prints. George Chamberlain mentioned that Fannie Coburn, Alvin Langdon Coburn’s mother, had resided briefly in the Phoenix, Arizona area sometime in the early 20th century, likely when her son Alvin was photographing the Grand Canyon, AZ. and traveling with Arthur Wesley Dow in 1912.
