Good with No dust jacket as issued. Softcover trade paperback format. The book is in good to good plus condition. The covers are a bit worn and scuffed, but the contents are tight and clean. The textblock is still tight with no loosening pages or gatherings and there are no markings or writing in the book itself, with the exception of the author's inscription on the half-title page.; Inscribed and signed by both Amos and his wife Marcia on the half title page. The inscription reads, " To my, and our dear, dear friend and (gracious, generous? ) collaborator Ingrid with all our love Amos + Marcia" New York, Nov. 13/05" The felt pen inscription is written in Amos' hand (very shaky handwriting) but Marcia signed her own name after Amos. The book is profusely illustrated with black and white movie stills from many of the films discussed in the book. Laid-in is a program from the 2005 Leo Awards (named in honor of Leo Dratfield, are presented to individuals committed to innovative approaches in the media arts field) in which Amos and Marcia Vogel are being honored.; Black and white film stills; 8vo 8"-9" tall; 336 pages; Amos and Marcia Vogel founded and ran Cinema 16, America's most famous membership film society, starting in 1947 until 1963. Fighting against censorship and commerical pressure, the Vogels distributed and promoted Avante-garde and documentary films that would otherwise have not been commerically released. "Film As A Subversive Art" was originally published in 1974 and detailed "the accelerating worldwide trend towards a more liberated cinema, in which subjects and forms hitherto considered unthinkable or forbidden are boldly explored." The book gives detailed examinations of over 500 films (many of which were banned, or never released) illustrated with 300 film stills.
