Overview"Photographer Rosamond Purcell\'s new book, Owls Head, is about her 20-year friendship with William Buckminster, an eccentric collector whose dilapidated antiques shop and 11-acre junkyard in Maine became something of a tourist attraction. Buckminster sold many of his items to Purcell, who took them home and photographed them in large-format Polaroid\'s. Purcell, who\'s been called the ""doyenne of decay,"" has also collaborated three times on books with the late paleontologist and science historian Stephen Jay Gould.
