Getting lost in Amsterdam sucks — except for the occasional “wow this store is f*cking amazing!” moment. MENDO is one of those stores. I was blown away by both the design of this boutique bookstore and the sheer number of one-0f-a-kind giant photo books they had on hand. One book that caught my eye was the aptly titled Harry Benson: Photographs; a 60-Year retrospective of the works of photojournalist Harry Benson. A truly amazing man, he “has photographed every U.S. president since Eisenhower, as well as Robert F. Kennedy on the night he was assassinated, and Martin Luther King Jr. at his funeral; he has shot stars such as Elizabeth Taylor, Mick Jagger, Dolly Parton, Michael Jackson, Greta Garbo, and Truman Capote.” (via Amazon.com)
