1934135018Burbank CA: Warner Brothers 1934. Vintage oversize borderless double weight black and white photograph from the set of the 1934 film. Snipe in manual type on the verso mentioning Karloff in "his latest picture for Universal The Black Cat" and rubber stamps crediting photographer Roman Freulich noting that the struck print is for an archive and that the photo is to be an exclusive. A stunning image of Karloff in full high priest regalia. <br/><br/>One of several great films by director Ulmer and along with "Detour" probably his finest achievement an efficient tale in which a young couple with a broken down automobile land not in a decidedly art deco haunted house where Karloff resides and Lugosi along with the couple is visiting. Michael Weaver notes: "Boldly thumbing its nose at convention the film is a veritable catalog of human corruption. Sadism shades of incest revenge murder torture voyeurism Satan worship ailurophobia necrophilia rape and insanity are weaved into the nearly plotless story with remarkable precision."<br/><br/>8.5 x 11.75 inches. Near Fine. <br/><br/>Weaver p. 87-95. Warner Brothers unknown books

1926397444Brooklyn New York: East District High School 1926. Softcover. Very Good. Edited by Daniel Fuchs. Large octavo. 39 9 ads pp. Stapled and illustrated orange wrappers. Owner's name on front cover vertical crease small chip and modest wear on the wrappers very good. Also includes a page signed by many classmates but not it appears by Fuchs. Fuchs was the author of the classic Jewish-American novel A Summer in Williamsburg set in Williamsburg Brooklyn. Not only did Fuchs edit this high school literary magazine he is pictured with a brief biography as well as pictured in the class picture and here publishes the Second Prize story in the school's Short Story Contest "Isidore Goldfarb Reflects." which is very reminiscent of his later fiction. The biography reveals that Fuchs edited and contributed to the magazine for most of his high school tenure so presumably this is not his first published work. However we've seen no other copy of the magazine. His first novel A Summer in Williamsburg was published in 1934 the same year as the other great Jewish-American Depression classic Call It Sleep by Henry Roth. Fuchs later devoted himself to writing film scripts one of which Love Me Or Leave Me won him an Academy Award. East District High School unknown
