The Lost Album: A Visual History of 1950s Britain by Basil Hyman

Basil Hyman, a keen amateur photographer, took hundreds of photographs of everyday life in Britain during the 1950s. The Lost Album is a nostalgic look back at this long-gone era, filled with photographs made during a time of enormous social change--just after World War II and before the 'Swinging Sixties'--and a wealth of ephemera: theater tickets and playbills, newspaper advertisements, ration books, and much more.
Basil Hyman is the author, with Steven Braggs, of The G-Plan Revolution. He is the third generation of a family that has been in the furniture business since the 1920s, and has taken photographs all his life.
