I just got back from having lunch with Todd James and Martha Cooper, and Marty happened to have a copy of the 25th Anniversary re-release of Subway Art. I’d been hearing about it from her for a while now, and no doubt the original was a classic, but I must say I was totally blown away by it. It’s a massively over-sized coffee table type book that really does Marty’s photos (and the trains she documented) huge justice. It was also great hearing Todd’s comments to the shots since he’d seen many of the trains first hand. Plus lots more never before seen shots off the same rolls of film that many of those classic Subway Art shots came from. Really great stuff…
