196918853Los Angeles: Locare Research Group. Very Good in Very Good dj. c.1969. First Edition. Hardcover. 091398602X . good solid copy top front corner bumped; jacket lightly soiled and a little age-toned minor wrinkling near top of front panel. B&W photographs facsimiles INSCRIBED "To Sydney sic Solow" and SIGNED by the author on the title page. Essentially a "films-of-Mary Pickford" chronicle but limited to only those films in which she "appeared as a comedienne either as the principal actress or in a supporting role" for the Biograph Company from 1909 through 1912; the illustrations consist primarily of reproductions of "Biograph Bulletins" the company's trade ads and frame blow-ups from the films themselves. "During the almost three years that Mary Pickford was with the Biograph Company she averaged at least one film a week. Most of her roles were dramatic and quite often she played the part of an Indian maiden. D.W. Griffith however recognized her ability as a comedienne and whenever he had a suitable story cast her in that manner. Much has been said of Mary's subsequent world-renown as a dramatic motion picture star but rarely has her talent as a comedienne been given the attention it warrants." The inscribee was Sidney P. Solow longtime head of Consolidated Film Industries one of Hollywood's major film laboratories back when Hollywood had film laboratories. The author was an important early figure in film preservation largely responsible for the restoration of films from the Paper Print Collection at the Library of Congress. Signed by Author .

14121November 30 1934 edition of the "Boston Evening Transcript" with front page article on the shootout that killed George "Baby Face" Nelson real name was Lester Joseph Gillis. Nelson was a bank robber and murderer in the 1930s known as Baby Face due to his youthful appearance and small stature. Nelson was a part of the notorious Dillinger gang. After a massive police hunt had resulted in the killing of John Dillinger only a few months ago Nelson and the rest of the gang were labeled "Public Enemy Number One." As an outlaw Nelson was responsible for the murder of several people and has the dubious distinction of having killed more FBI agents in the line of duty than any other person. Nelson was shot by FBI agents and died after a shootout called "The Battle of Barrington" which is the subject of this article. The title of this article "No Quarter to Young Widow of "Baby Face" comes from the wording of an order from J. Edgar Hoover ".find the woman and give her no quarter" which was widely interpreted to mean that the FBI had issued a "death order" for Nelson's widow who wandered the streets of Chicago as a fugitive for several days described in print as America's first female "public enemy". <br/><br/>This front page newspaper article which is so long it continues onto page two reads in part ".Federal agents today as they hunted Mr.s Helen Gillis diminuative widow of George "Baby Face" Nelson leader of the rapidly diminishing remnants of the gang of the late John Dillinger.County and city police hoped to bring to justice John Hamilton believed to have been with her and Nelson when a machine-gun battle at Barrington in which Inspector Samuel P. Cowley and Special Agent Herman E. Hollis perished in the Government's drive against the nation's public enemies." And "Government agents stood guard at the morgue where Nelson's body lay on the same slab that recently held John Dillinger." And "Federal Agents believe Mrs. Nelson loaded guns for the outlaws in the fight with Cowley and Hollis." Scattered foxing and tears with minor paper loss around the edges. Overall in very good condition. unknown books
