193096455Finland September 29th 1930. 1930. Fine. - Over 20 words penned on Leonie Aminoff's personal 6-1/2 inch high by 5 inch wide stationery with her monogrammed initials under a crown embossed at the top. A brief note addressed to the young Seymour Halpern enclosing her autograph: "I have pleasure in enclosing you my Autograph". Signed "Leonie Aminoff". Folded for mailing. Near fine with an attached integral blank leaf. <p>The Finnish author Constance Leonie Caroline Aminoff 1870-1951 published works in both Swedish and English. The following are among her English language publications: "The Broad Walk" and several books in "The Torchlight series of Napoleonic Romances" including "Revolution" "Love" "Ambition" "Victory" "Triumph" "Arrogance" "Storm" and "Retreat" among others.<p>The Queens New York Republican Congressman Seymour Halpern 1913-1997 started his political career as a campaign aide to New York's powerful mayor Fiorella La Guardia and first served in New York's State Senate for 14 years before seeking a seat in the U.S. Congress. In Albany Halpern sponsored 279 bills that became law including measures on schools housing civil rights nutrition and mental health. A Liberal he was something of an anomaly as the lone Republican representative from New York City and generally garnered support from Labor Unions and endorsement from the Liberal Party. Yet he never even considered switching parties as he considered membership in the Republican Party a family tradition and commitment. While he found ample time for his private pursuits including painting and collecting autographs he took his legislative duties very seriously. Of these he was proudest of his co-sponsorship of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and of the original 1965 Medicare legislation. Finland, September 29th, 1930. unknown

1945005917np Greenwich CT: np 1945. Unpublished Typescript w/ manuscript illustrations. Elbe no. 27 Binder. Near Fine. Unpaged 120-140 pp recto only including bibliography. 29cm. Tall quarto. Black leatherette Elbe no. 27 spring binder with title in pencil on masking tape spine label. There's an ingenious system of chapter markers made from cloth reinforcements numbered in pen poking out from the fore edge they're worn but still serviceable. Copiously illustrated in both graphite and pen & ink with roughly half the drawings traced and half rendered freehand. Pages are ribbon copy typescript with original drawings in-text a feat unto itself. Book condition: Minor chipping to the spine ends of the binder worn chapter markers else fine. The illustrations range from accomplished to clumsy; serious to whimsical not always on purpose. There is both precision drafting and true art brut. The lack of even the slightest sense of humor doesn't help the author's cause which is coming from a place hostile to organized religions of all stripes. One experiences the growing sense of incredulity from the very first as the author's grasp of logic is revealed to be of an altogether different nature.<br /> <br /> There's a lot of work in this book though. We respect the fact that it's exactly one more book than we've ever written. Still the effort to turn virtually every single religious symbol ever created into elaborate phalli bristling with menace can grow so to speak tiresome. np unknown
