192285914Boston: Houghton Mifflin 1922. First American Edition. First printing. Published the same year in London Constable. Octavo; red cloth hardcover; xix308pp. Spine darkened with mild soil to covers; endpapers toned from old jacket offsetting; text generally clean and unmarked; just a VG copy lacking the dustwrapper. <br /> <br /> A low-point which is saying something in the corpus of British antisemitic propaganda masquerading as a disinterested examination of the "Jewish Problem" by the noted Franco-English Catholic writer and historian. In the most reasonable-sounding way Belloc puts forward an argument for the segregation of British Jews on the grounds that "the Catholic Church is the conservator of an age-long European tradition and that tradition will never compromise with the fiction that a Jew can be other than a Jew." Even in the context of pre-Hitlerian "passive" antisemitism it was and remains a foul little book albeit one that needs reading. SINGERMAN Antisemitic Propaganda 0129. Houghton Mifflin unknown

1955209986United States: Lloyd Friedgen and Rajkamal Kalamandir Studio. circa1955. Movie Front of House/Lobby card 28 x 35.7 cms inset sepia photographic still from the film surrounded by a red border with the movie title in yellow a white dragon curling above the title in very good condition. Striking Front of House/Lobby card for a 1955 film produced at the height of anti-Communism in the West. <br> <br>The byline for the film was lurid: "Swooping down from the North they ceated a brutal Reign of Terror" and as The Movie Database TMDB notes the film was "culled from footage of a Hindi film titled 'The Journey of Dr. Kotnis.' Producer Lloyd Friedgen added real and staged footage of wartime atrocities." It played to both American and Indian suspicions about the rise of China and appeared the year after Nehru's visit to Beijing. <br> <br>During the Communist Revolution in China a young Indian physician Dr Dwarkanath Kotnis Shantaram Rajaram Vankudre aids the resistance movement working against the development of germ warfare by Communist doctors and develops a serum then meets and courts a Chinese girl Ching Lan Jayashree. .

1942175578Circa1942. Small airborne propaganda leaflet printed on one side only featuring a colour illustration. Appears to have been dropped during the Malayan Campaign. 14.6 x 19.8 cm creased and marked on the reverse. Image still very clear and strong. Airborne colour propaganda leaflet urges the British troops to surrender to Japan. The rather oddly worded text reads: <br> <br>"Iron-rationed. Stranded. <br>Nothing but dog biscuits. <br>Day after day positively. <br>How about a dish of salad like this <br>For a change of diet. just a change of mind". <br> <br>The image shows three figures two of whom are identifiable as British soldiers in a desperate situation on a small piece of land possibly representing Singapore. In the distance their warships are burning. A plate of salad which dominates the image looks enticingly fresh and colourful albeit rather surprising that the Japanese military propaganda believed salad would motivate the soldiers to surrender! Similar messages published and dropped by the Allies were distributed to Japanese troops in Japanese towards the end of the Pacific War with the same aim in mind. <br> <br>Although we have not been able to identify the area depicted with absolute certainty we believe this leaflet was likely dropped during the Malayan Campaign rather than Guadalcanal as we have seen it attributed to. Our reasons for this include the leaflet showing British soldiers whereas American servicemen were primarily involved in Guadalcanal. The burning ships offshore seem to fit more with the sinking of the HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse particularly as only two are depicted and they are being destroyed by what seem to be land-based bombers not other ships or carrier-based aircraft. Likewise at the late stage in the Pacific War that the Guadalcanal Campaign took place Japan was no longer in a position where they could cope with POWs nor were they likely to be in a position to print colour leaflets or distribute them. <br> <br>Commonly airborne leaflets were used over land battles rather than in naval battles. . unknown

1933214182東京. Tokyo.: 博文館. Hakubunkan. Showa 81933. Six colour card cutout sheets folded as issued 39 x 27cm original wrapper with instructions 28 x 21cm. Paper wrapper chipped and torn with a little loss now neatly repaired with washi. Instructions are complete and the card sheets are in very good condition. This papercraft diorama kit was issued as a supplement to the children’s magazine Tankai in April 1933. The kit recreates scenes from the Japanese attack outside Shanghai in February 1932. During the mission to break through the Chinese defence line three Japanese soldiers were killed and subsequently celebrated as national war heroes known as 爆弾三勇士 The Three Brave Bombing Soldiers. Their bravery was highly revered and they became symbols of courage and sacrifice. <br> <br>The kit includes six platforms that when combined create a rising scene from the creek bed section. It depicts Japanese soldiers attacking Chinese buildings positioned on a hill supported by artillery and tanks. The set features numerous cutouts of Japanese soldiers in action while a smaller number of cutouts portray frightened Chinese fighters. Through this diorama young children learned about the conflict by recreating battle scenes and identifying with the war heroes during play. The kit not only served as a form of entertainment but also as a tool for instilling nationalistic pride and wartime ideology in the younger generation. . 博文館. [Hakubunkan]. unknown
