'The past has caught up with William Helburn … 25 years after his retirement, the first book on his work is being publishedAnd with it, a chapter in the history of fashion photography may have to be revised' - Observer
'A gloriously glamorous exploration of the work of the top advertising photographer of the 1950s and 1960s … brings the fun and colour of mid-century America to life in stylish detail. One can’t help but imagine Don Draper, cigarette in hand, just out of shot' - Daily Telegraph
'There is something utterly engaging about the colours, outfits and models. A beautiful book' - Amateur Photographer
'Not only documents the perfectly glamorous type of commercial image-making that was popular at the time, it also recognises the significant contribution Helburn made to the industry through the presentation of 200 captivating colour images' - Aesthetica
William Helburn was the go-to photographer for many of the top advertising agencies in New York in the 1950s and 1960s. For more than thirty years, Robert Lilly, a native New Yorker, has produced news programmes, stories and documentaries from Europe, the Middle East and the Americas for companies including NBC, CNN, VH1 and Reuters.
