First edition with full black cloth and dust jacket, signed by William Klein, hardcover, 27,5 x 21,5 cm (10.8 x 8.5 in), 194 pages including the often missing 16 pages caption booklet. 188 black and white photographs printed in photogravure “William Klein's Life is Good & Good for You in New York is regarded as one of the most influential and ground-breaking photo-books created in the last half-century. Published in 1956, its visual energy captured the rough-and-tumble streets of New York—a city Klein once described as “the world capital of anguish”—like no photo-book had done before or since.” (J. Ladd)
