Late photographer Irving Penn published several books during his successful career. His first photography book, Moments Preserved, came out in 1960 and is no longer available in print; used copies cost around $200.

Other out-of-print books by Irving Penn include:
Worlds in a Small Room (1974)

Inventive Paris Clothes 1909-1939 (1977)
Flowers (1980)
and Passage (1991).
If buying used isn't your thing, you can check out the six titles that he published more recently, all still in print:
Irving Penn Regards The Work Of Issey Miyake (1999)
The Astronomers Plan A Voyage To Earth (1999)

Drawings (1999)
Still Life (2001)
Photographs of Dahomey (2004)
and A Notebook At Random (2004).

His last book gives insight into the head of this Vogue photographer instead of simply displaying his art.
