191898475France. July 20 1918. 1918. Very good. - Octavo 7 inch high by 4-1/2 inch wide. Approximately 173 words penned on three of the four sides of a folded sheet of personalized letterhead. The letterhead from his family home of Brockhurst Grange Road Guernsey was used elsewhere as is indicated by the identification having a line crossed through it. Dugmore is most probably writing from France. He writes to the American lecture manager James B. Pond that "I am to return under the instructions of the comparatively new Ministry of Information as soon as I have gathered the material I want. This will include the results of a visit to the front both with the British & American forces in France a probable visit to the Grand Fleet visits to the largest munitions works & ship yards. So I hope to be ready to return in September. That is to say leaving here about the middle of that month. The plan to go to the west coast California etc. will be first rate.By the way I have been a Major since Feb 10th & never knew it till the other day." He signs in full "Very truly yrs A Radclyffe Dugmore". In a postscript he writes: "Are you mentioning the African lecture for the west". Pond has stamped the note:"ANS'D AUG 29 1918". A few words are slightly smudged and the letter is folded twice for mailing. Very good. <p>The big game photographer and author Major Arthur Radclyffe Dugmore 1870-1952 was also an artist illustrating some of his books and producing a series of prints of wildlife. He traveled extensively photographing and filming animals throughout the world and particularly in Africa. The author of "The Wonderland of Big Game" "The Romance of the Beaver" "Camera Adventures in the African Wilds" and "The Romance of the Newfoundland Caribou" among others his films include "The Wonderland of Big Game". He was the subject of a 1931 Lowell Thomas biography "Rolling Stone: The Life and Adventures of Arthur Radclyffe Dugmore".<p>At the beginning of World War 1 Dugmore went to the battle front and recorded his experiences. He wrote of them in his book "When the Somme Ran Red". Quoting from the dust jacket of the book: "This book was written during wartime by a gassed British infantry officer incapacitated and no longer fit for service in the trenches. Dugmore was an unusual soldier who would normally have been considered too old for front line duties from the outset. He was already well into middle age at the outbreak of hostilities having spent a career as a naturalist and sportsman and it was only due to influential friends that he managed to obtain a commission in an infantry regiment - the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry. Yet this was not his first experience of the Western Front. As the German Army swept into Belgium the civilian Dugmore-armed only with a cine camera-travelled to the front as the small Belgian Army vainly attempted to stem the advance to experience the war at first hand. His account of this early stage of the war makes unusual and fascinating reading. After joining the army the author joined his regiment serving in the trenches during the period leading towards the First Battle of the Somme in 1916 and it is this and his time during the battle itself that are the principal subjects in this account."

1990149761990. Higinbotham William A. Signed typescript of Frederic D. Schwartz's 1990 article on the origins of early video games documents the role of a nuclear physicist in the development of interactive electronic entertainment later associated with Pong. Higinbotham a scientist at Brookhaven National Laboratory created an oscilloscope-based tennis simulation in 1958 as part of public demonstrations designed to make atomic research accessible and non-threatening during the Cold War. The document situates the origins of video gaming within a government laboratory environment connected to earlier wartime research including instrumentation work linked to the Manhattan Project. The text provides primary evidence of how scientific expertise developed for military and nuclear purposes contributed to the emergence of recreational digital technologies.<br /> <br /> Higinbotham William A. Signed typescript of "Remember Pong" by Frederic D. Schwartz. New York: Invention and Technology Magazine 1990. Three pages signed on page three "Best Wishes William A. Higinbotham Feb. 8 1991." The article opens: "Remember Pong In 1972 it became the first successful video-arcade game. In reality though it was invented in 1958. by a man named William Higinbotham." The text describes Higinbotham's position overseeing instrumentation design at Brookhaven and explains the development of a "tennis game with the court displayed on an oscilloscope's screen." It further notes the institutional context of government employment stating that patent rights would have belonged to the federal government preventing personal ownership of the invention.<br /> <br /> Produced at the end of Higinbotham's life the signed typescript frames early video game history through the perspective of a scientist who had witnessed the first atomic test and later advocated for nonviolence and nuclear restraint. The article connects Cold War scientific culture with the emergence of interactive media emphasizing how technologies designed for warfare and research environments were adapted for public engagement and entertainment. Higinbotham's stated intention to create a nonviolent diversion underscores a countercurrent within late twentieth-century debates over digital media and violence positioning the document within broader discussions of ethics in technology development. Light wear from handling; stapled at upper left; text and signature clear; overall in very good condition. unknown
