?White Boys?Photography by Sam Carson Published by Bruno Gmünder Verlag Gmbh, Berlin, Germany, 2005 First Edition, HardcoverSealed under Publisher?s Wraps  INTRODUCTION Sam Carson?s first monograph First Exposure, which was released in 2003, rocketed this quiet unassuming architect to instant notoriety in the male nude and physique photography genre. Using young male athletic-type armature models, Carson quickly established his ability to capture ?sinful innocence? from his models. It is fair to say that Carson has a keen eye for male beauty, and the photography skills to capture it exceedingly well on film. Using spontaneity and levity in his posing, the young men have fun as the camera captures the moments. First Exposure (hardcover) sold out in a very short time as demand for Carson?s work suddenly became worldwide. Gmünder published a softcover/paperback version of the book to meet demand, but it too has now sold out and commands premium prices. Carson followed up with publishing a series of books which included: ?First Exposure (softcover) in 2004, ?White Boys? in 2005, and ?L.A. Boys? in 2006, and then ?Southern Exposure? in 2007. For sure, that is an aggressive publication schedule for ANY artist, even the most seasoned. But Sam Carson accomplished it and each book SOLD OUT and was out-of-print within five years. Remarkable. What is even more remarkable, there were also ?Postcard Books? published, as well as ?Calendars and ?Diaries? for some of the titles. Bruno Gmünder couldn?t have asked for a bigger cash cow than Carson?s heard, and he knew it. I was lucky enough to work with Carson during the period of production of these titles, and I can tell you it was a remarkable trip. I got to know the players at Gmünder who worked feverishly to produce the titles at a time that the company was sinking fast economically. Luckily, Carson?s work was saved during the final bankruptcy at a time many a title was not. It was a difficult time. From the Publisher:After the global success of "First Exposure", his first book of photographs, Californian Photographer/Architect, Sam Carson continues his homage to the unspoiled, innocently erotic young men in this exciting new book of portraits. Carson presents new faces and fresh youthful bodies, specially cast in a creative and sensitive light. The final cover comes off only rarely. Sam Carson?s art is original and unique in the realm of gay male photography. 80 pages of unsullied and unobtrusive eroticism is revealed for all to see. ABOUT THE STORE ?pride-photobooks? is a new ID supporting a new Brand.

This First Edition hardcover volume from 2005 is presented with printed vivid color coverboards, with no dust jacket, as issued. The book measures 7 x 9 ½ inches (18 x 24 cm) and contains 80 thick paper stock pages, with 76 pages of color full bleed single and collage images without pagination. Carson?s style is perfect for this project as his lens impeccably captures the ?playful/adolescent? moments between the models, or alone in their thoughts. No censorship here with full male physique nudity present in some of the photographs. However, this is not a porn book. So, if that is what you are looking for, the photographs here are in the artistic photography genre, not porn. Carson likes to select the college jocks as models; the football players, the track stars, the wrestlers, swimmers, as well as the class pranksters. He concentrates on their bodies and makes them look good, with the help of lighting, and the models innate acting abilities. These models selected are total armatures, without any experience other than life. But they look good to the camera, and the audience cried for encores?again?This title has been long out-of-print and copies are extremely scarce in this condition. I should note that our Store copies of White Boys have been stored in a clean air environment with temperature and humidity controlled since acquisition from the Publisher.
