51-6621Yalta Crimea: April; 13 1945. Silver print. French text on separate sheet pasted to verso. Photographer's stamp verso. 18 x 13 cm. Published the day after FDR's death. .The Yalta Conference took place in a Russian resort town in the Crimea from February 4–11 1945 during World War Two. At Yalta U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin made important decisions regarding the future progress of the war and the postwar world.World Leaders at the Yalta Conference.The Allied leaders came to Yalta knowing that an Allied victory in Europe was practically inevitable but less convinced that the Pacific war was nearing an end. Recognizing that a victory over Japan might require a protracted fight the United States and Great Britain saw a major strategic advantage to Soviet participation in the Pacific theater. At Yalta Roosevelt and Churchill discussed with Stalin the conditions under which the Soviet Union would enter the war against Japan and all three agreed that in exchange for potentially crucial Soviet participation in the Pacific theater the Soviets would be granted a sphere of influence in Manchuria following Japan’s surrender. This included the southern portion of Sakhalin a lease at Port Arthur now Lüshunkou a share in the operation of the Manchurian railroads and the Kurile Islands. This agreement was the major concrete accomplishment of the Yalta Conference. Yalta, Crimea: April; 13, 1945 unknown

Presented in an archival custom-designed case. A fine unread copy lacking outer bag. 'Elvis & the Birth of Rock celebrates the extraordinary era when rock and roll tour buses travelled the States often presenting several legendary performers in a single billing as documented in the stunning photographs of Lew Allen and the words of Mike McCartney. 1956 was a defining year for Elvis Presley as he rocketed from regional celebrity to national icon. In January his first Number One hit 'Heartbreak Hotel' was followed by his first album topping the charts in March. On November 23rd a 17-year-old photography enthusiast was invited to shoot Elvis Presley at the Cleveland Arena for his high school newspaper. A labour strike at the three major newspapers in Cleveland meant that Lew Allen was the only photographer at the show. Interspersed among the photographs of Elvis are images from two shows in Rochester New York in 1958 both part of popular music bus tours throughout the States which included several now-legendary acts such as Buddy Holly The Everly Brothers Bobby Darin Frankie Avalon and many more. It was Bob Shatten Lew Allen's nephew who began the task of assembling the work for publication in 1988 when Lew dug out some old contact sheets that had been gathering dust in his basement for decades. That work was continued by Mike McCartney who brought the previously unseen collection to the attention of Genesis Publications. The project's three collaborators Lew Bob and Mike provide a fascinating and illuminating commentary to the photographs exploring their historic context and cultural significance.'
