He was an eccentric character well-known for his bypassing the formal attire dictated by his professional position for casual clothes fun hats and his beloved motorcycle. He began his career as a San Francisco Bay Area TV and radio producer with some of its highlights being the production of the first televised 49ers game in 1954 and various Giants radio broadcasts in the late 1950s. Formerly known as the Philadelphia Warriors the Golden State Warriors were purchased by a group of 32 investors one of which was Mieuli and moved to the Bay Area following the 1961â62 NBA season. After an unimpressive first San Francisco season the investors decided to bail and Frank bought them out and became the sole owner. It was with him in 1975 when the team won its one and only NBA title to date. Mieuli sold the Warriors to Jim Fitzgerald and Daniel Finnane in 1986. He was also a co-owner of the 49ers and retained a 10% share in the partnership until his death in 2010. One of the many accomplishments he is remembered for was his dedication to breaking racial barriers by encouraging players to try for and his staff to sign on athletes regardless of their color. - A large scrapbook documenting the 1975 season and NBA World Championship; 11 x 14 1/2; stiff brown card stock wraps secured with a metal clasp and decorative thread; photograph of the NBA Cup pasted on front cover; age-toning along margins; corners a bit rubbed and worn; contains copies of newspaper articles photos and hand-written notes; overall very good.

The artwork depicts a large Native American sitting on top of a small figure subtitled "Hollywood and the Stars" displaying an enormous shoe sole with "Oakland" written on it and saying: "Join-um the good ship Mieuli or eat-um snickers for-um year!!!" - Mieuli's copy of a deposition at the Superior Court in Los Angeles in a lawsuit of Charles E. "Pat" Boone - singer actor and co-owner of another basketball team - former Oakland Americans later renamed to the Oakland Oaks - and Lemat Corporation v. AMERICAN BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION; 8 1/2 x 11; pp. 197; sheets secured with metal pegs; typed text on recto only; coffee mug rings to first page Frank Mieuli's ; scribbles notes and a few stains to last page else clean; good to very good. Lemat Corporation owner of the NBA franchise for the Golden State Warriors and Charles E. Pat Boone part owner of the American Basketball Association ABA franchise for the Oakland Oaks had separately filed against the ABA that were consolidated for trial. During the seasons 1965-1967 Richard F. Barry III then super star of pro basketball was under contract to the Warriors with an option for 1967-1968 and beyond. Though complicated the main reason for the lawsuit was the newly formed ABA's attempt to spirit Richard F. Barry III away from the Warriors and his NBA contract and sign him up with the ABA Oakland franchise. N/A hardcover books

1919002046Riga: Ts. K. K. P. L. Central Committee of the Communist Party of Latvia 1919. Softcover. Very good. Large printed document; 15 3/4 x 10; single sheet pp. 2; newspaper stock ruled with an intricate border; 1 1/2" loss of paper to upper right corner; crease line through middle; a bit of age-toning; overall in very good condition. Possibly one of the earliest publications of the newly-renamed Communist party of Latvia it was an exuberant call to all working men and women to celebrate for the very first time in Latvia May 1 the day of the victory of the proletariat. The party was initially founded in 1904 and in 1906 after entering the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party as a territorial organization it changed its name to Social-Democracy of the Latvian Territory. In June of 1918 a group of Mensheviks who had been expelled from the latter formed the Latvian Social Democratic Workers' Party. In turn it was renamed the Communist Party of Latvia in March of 1919. Ultimately the party would be banned in 1920 after the Latvian War of Independence. The document in true propaganda fashion rambled on about the evil bourgeoisie's terror and their demise in the hands of the Bolsheviks and the continued need for thwarting the efforts of the world Imperialism. A memorable passage read: "Today the entire European armed proletariat raises their weapons even higher and exclaims - Want war You will perish!" Riga: Ts. K. K. P. L.

Count Nikolai Petrovich Rumiantsev 1754 â 1826 was Minister of Commerce and Foreign Minister in the period leading up to Napoleon's invasion of Russia from 1808 until 1812. He was also a voracious collector amassing an enormous collection of coins maps and over 28 000 books manuscripts and historical documents. The last of his family he bequeathed them to the Ministry of Education after his death. Emperor Nicholas I issued a decree on the establishment of the Rumyantsev Museum in 1828 and it opened its doors in 1831 occupying the Rumyantsev House on English Quay in St. Petersburg. It became affiliated with the Imperial Public Library in 1845. The museum was relocated to Moscow in 1861 to the Pashkov House opposite the Kremlin becoming Moscow's first public museum. It was renamed the Imperial Moscow and Rumiantsev Museum in 1913 while new acquisitions were continuously added to the existing inventory. In 1924 the Soviet Government decided to shut the museum down splitting the collections and transferring them to the Lenin State Library of the USSR the Tretyakov Gallery the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts and others. The current volume covered a turbulent period the beginning of the First World War which had put a great strain on the staff and operations of the museum hitting especially hard the library where most employees had been drafted. It included a breakdown of the number of visitors and researchers from various nationalities financial reports and obituaries of members of the museum. It also prominently featured detailed bibliographical descriptions of new acquisitions in the various departments including books manuscripts personal documents objects of art etc. Apparently two other small pamphlets with a catalog of the Elzevir editions in the library and the letters of Turgenev to Countess Lambert were published simultaneously with the current one not present.
