WILLIAM HELBURN: SEVENTH AND MADISON
WILLIAM HELBURN: SEVENTH AND MADISON($65.00 hardcover, 9780500517659) captures striking fashion and advertising images by the go-to photographer for many of the top agencies in New York during the 1950s and 60s Advertising Revolution.
The reason I wanted to review this book was because the topic is about ’50s and ’60s advertising. I believe this era of advertising is among some of the best this country has ever seen. I eagerly devoured Helburn’s body of work.
As well as cars and cosmetics, Helburn shot Coca-Cola, Canada Dry, whiskeys, clothing lines, airlines, jewelry, cigars and cigarettes, and any number of other products. He worked with the top models of the day, from Dovima and Dorian Leigh to Jean Patchett and Barbara Mullen to Jean Shrimpton and Lauren Hutton.

I like to see the historical pictures and would love this book!
I love old photographs even ones that are before my time.
I like the stylishness of this work. The stylishness!
I like that the book is about vintage photography..I love seeing how styles have changed and reading about different styles!
This is a great coffee table book. It allows one to go back in time and see the world in the eyes of an amazing photographer.
The pictures and history in this book are fascinating!
I love that this book has so much featured from a vintage standpoint from the 1950s and the 1960s.
I think that the pictures are beautiful-it would make a good coffee table book
I love that the pictures have not been seen since they were published. I love getting to see what things were like back when my grandparents were young.
I really like all the pictures and I hope I can win.
I like that there are celebrity photos and some photos were shot with a sense of humor.
I love the older advertising photos and knowing William Helburn was the go-to photographer for many of the top advertising agencies in New York in the 1950s and 1960s makes this more appealing 🙂
As a history buff, I love the look at our pop culture heritage.
I’m most looking forward to the older pictures…I love seeing the world from the past
I need to read this!! good luck to all
I would like to see the photos.
I like history and hearing about the producers of this era in fashion/advertising.
Many of the pictures have not been seen since they were published years ago..till now, in this book! Makes it seem like something really special, a hidden treasure, rediscovered!
I think that it’s really neat that Helburn shot Coca-Cola, Canada Dry, whiskeys, clothing lines, airlines, jewelry, cigars and cigarettes. Didn’t know!
I like that “Most of these images have not been seen since they were first published decades ago”. So many classic pics/ads have been over-exposed.
