GILL, Stephen. Unseen UK: A Book of Photographs by the People at Royal Mail.

(London): The Royal Mail Group PLC, 2006.  First edition.  Hardcover. 21.6cm by 30.5cm.  230 pages.  Introduction by Jon Ronson. A striking photographic portrait of Britain “behind the scenes,” this unique volume brings together images captured by over 1,000 Royal Mail employees as part of a nationwide initiative to document everyday life across the UK—from the vantage point of the nation’s postmen and women. The result is an intimate, grassroots visual record, revealing not only the landscapes and urban environments encountered during deliveries, but also the lives, humor, and quiet moments often hidden from public view. Curated from more than 30,000 submissions, the book offers a refreshingly democratic take on contemporary British photography. With forewords by photographer Tom Hunter and journalist Rosie Millard, the volume stands as both a cultural snapshot and a testament to the unseen artistry of ordinary people.  A very good plus copy in printed red boards without dust jacket as issued.  This copy signed by Stephen Gill in pencil.
