Description
Harold Edgerton, Hitting the punching bag. 8 x 10 inch vintage gelatin silver print, 1935. From the very beginning of his experiments with strobe Edgerton was interested in sports activities. This print is from the M.I.T. Technology Review dated Oct. 1935. This shows the instant when the glove strikes the bag. It has the red stamp and "Edgerton High Speed not used" in blue. Another photograph, 5 x 8 inches, shows a boxer about to strike the bag. The blurring in front of the glove might indicate an attempt to record the motion, as Edgerton was able to do in his later work.
Condition
The first is a little light, as made. It has a small repaired cut just in the bottom margin. [D3]. The second is fine [4]
