Re: So What's So Great About HCB?

[John Forbes]

Coming back to the "no-cropping" issue.  Surely there was a practical  
aspect to that.  HCB did not usually print his own pictures, and as a  
photo-journalist might at times have had no input into the printing at  
all. That being the case, a permanent injunction against cropping would  
have ensured that the finished print at least had some resemblance to the  
scene he photographed.

Had he done his own printing, I wonder whether the no-cropping rule would  
have held.
