For the project, Gossage employed a custom telephoto lens and 6000 ASA film to shoot the area around the Berlin Wall in near-total blackness, capturing the dark atmosphere of a divided city. This new facsimile edition of \u003ci\u003eLAMF\u003c\/i\u003e, made in close collaboration with the photographer, features an expanded edit of 44 images (twice as many as the original) and a new interview with Gossage about the book's genesis and his long affinity for Berlin, which is also the subject of his acclaimed books \u003ci\u003eStadt des Schwarz\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBerlin in the Time of the Wall\u003c\/i\u003e. The result is both a masterpiece of the photobook medium and a moving artifact of Cold War history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Gossage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Magic Hour Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.1lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.80w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781738901395","brand":"Magic Hour Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46761361277065,"sku":"9781738901395","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_d900a113-97fd-4ced-a73c-a13177ea6043.jpg?v=1779166822","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/john-gossage-lamf-9781738901395","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
