Signed. signed copy of Friedlander's first solo book. Self Portrait comprises a series of urban and suburban scenes, into which Friedlander has included his reflection or shadow. He financed the publication of this book with the proceeds from his share of the sale of the portfolio version of Work from the Same House, naming his new imprint Haywire Press: 'I remembered that haywire was what farmers use to hold things together when they can't get the real thing. And that's just how that book got put together. Everybody I knew helped me.'
