[Leo Frank] [Atlanta] [Georgia] AnonBiblio.com

The Frank Case Inside Story of Georgia's Greatest Murder Mystery

191336796Atlanta: The Atlanta Publishing Company 1913. Soft cover. Poor. Wraps. Approx. 8" x 5". 144 pages. Complete. Wraps are in poor condition. Paper is extremely fragile with multiple chips tears and loss to the covers and spine. A poor earlier glue repair job has left the remains of the covers stained. Covers are mostly detached and at the time of this catalog description are barely attached by old tape repairs. First and last pages are near detached. Page edges for the first few pages are chipped and creased. Browned pages to the text This extremely scarce coverage of the Leo Frank Trial was published shortly after the trial was completed. Two years later a mob broke into the Milledgeville prison where Frank was an inmate and kidnapped Frank. The mob drove Frank to Marietta Georgia where he was hanged. From the author name not provided on page 2 - "This work ends with the conviction of Frank in the superior court of Fulton Atlanta county. Trial did not end the case for immediately after the young defendant was sentenced to pay the death penalty a motion for a new trial was made and it will be months probably years before he hangs if he ever does. From the day of conviction however the fight for Frank's life became a technical legal battle. The real story ends with the trial and every essential feature is given here." The last two pages of this narrative express the fears of Atlanta officials if a not guilty verdict and the potential of lynching before the jury reached its guilty verdict. An extremely scarce fragile and period narrative of one of the most violent Civil Rights abuses in Georgia history. No physical copies located in OCLC. No copies showing in auctions or the trade. Leo Frank was a superintendent at the National Pencil Company in Atlanta. He was charged with the murder of Mary Phagan a 13 year old employee of the National Pencil Factory. She was found murdered at the factory on April 26 1913. From the New Georgia Encyclopedia: "Based mainly on the testimony of the janitor who had been held in seclusion for six weeks before the trial on orders from Solicitor General Hugh M. Dorsey the jury convicted the defendant. Frank's attorneys were unable to break Conley's testimony on the stand. They also allowed evidence to be introduced suggesting that Frank had many dalliances with girls and perhaps boys in his employ. Atlantans hoped for a conviction. They surrounded the courthouse cheered the prosecutor as he entered and exited the building each day and celebrated wildly when the jurors after twenty-five days of trial found Frank guilty". Shortly after the trial concluded the appeals process began. From New Georgia Encyclopedia: "Within weeks of the trial's outcome in early September friends of Frank sought assistance from northern Jews including constitutional lawyer Louis Marshall of the American Jewish Committee. Marshall gave advice about what information to include in the appeal but Frank's Georgia attorneys ignored his counsel. Frank's lawyers filed three successive appeals to the Supreme Court of Georgia and two more to the U.S. Supreme Court all on such procedural issues as Frank's absence when the verdict was rendered and the excessive amount of public influence placed on the jury. Ultimately the U.S. Supreme Court still on procedural grounds denied Frank's appeals; however a minority of two Oliver Wendell Holmes and Charles Evans Hughes dissented. They noted that the trial was conducted in an atmosphere of public hostility: "Mob law does not become due process of law by securing the assent of a terrorized jury." Governor John Slaton of Georgia reviewed the testimony and went to the Pencil factory. After reviewing the case the Governor commuted Frank's sentence in 1915. This infuriated Georgians leading to Atlanta riots and the safety of Frank Slaton. Slaton left the state for 10 years after his term in office ended. In August of 1915 25 leading citizens of Marietta kidnapped Leo Frank and drove him to Marietta where he was hanged. The Atlanta Publishing Company unknown

Antique Thai Manuscript Case

002064Thailand: n/a A robust antique Thai manuscript case constructed of tropical hardwood possibly teak. The case consists of a framed structure on an extended base with six recessed panels two on each long side and one on each end. A removable lid sits flush within the top section of the frame and a small leather thong on the lid facilitates its lifting and removal. All side surfaces are lavishly decorated in the lai rot nam technique employed widely in temple wall and door decoration in the Rattanakosin Period from which this case dates. The technique involves the overlay of gold leaf to create decorative elements onto a black lacquer background. All six panels depict seated figures of deities hands in anjali mudra surrounded by dense designs of stylized rocks floral elements and foliage. The interior of the case is covered with plain red lacquer; the lid with a transparent lacquer and the underside of the base remains untreated. A very similar case although longer and narrower with three rather than the present two side panels may be seen in Gallery 213 of the Minneapolis Museum of Art. The case dates to the mid to late 19th century and would typically have been used to house and protect a Buddhist manuscript on lontar palm. There are minor chips and some surface wear commensurate with its age and use; overall the case is in very good sound condition. The case dimensions are 51 cm. x 26 cm. x 26.5 cm. high. n/a.
