Lucky Find yesterday


While browsing through some discounted items at Powell's Books yesterday I found this 48 page photography magazine of ballerinas and danseurs of the Ballets Russes. I couldn't find a date anywhere but estimate this to be from the 1930s or 40s. This is Tamara Toumanova on the cover. Quite a few of the photographs are of the dancer in mid air and one can't help looking for wires holding them up, they really are incredible photos!
