194068113Springfield: Negro Youth Improvement League 1940. Paperback. Very Good. 11p. Wrapper. 16cm. The Negro Youth Improvement League is identified in this pamphlet as ". composed of young Negro men and women of Springfield who feel that they have suffered certain social injustices long enough." This uncommon pamphlet attacks the Dunbar Community League claiming that it is elitist refuses to hire local African Americans and disproportionately emphasizes support for Camp Atwater although only 10-15% of its campers are from Springfield.The Dunbar Community League was headed by William Nelson DeBerry a nationally prominent African American cleric who had been pastor of St. John's Congregational Church in Springfield. The Dunbar Community League established around 1930 to take over activities started by DeBerry's church changed its name to Urban League of Springfield Inc. in 1950. Camp Atwater appears to still operate identifying itself online the oldest African American camp in the USA. and as owned and operated by the Urban League of Springfield Mass. We don't know if the complaints in this pamphlet had any effect on the operations and activities of the Dunbar Community League but the pamphlet appears to have been an honest effort by interested youth to make sure that their needs were not being ignaored.

1976192297New York: Ballantine Books 1976. A long time ago in a publishing house far far away. First edition signed by the ghostwriter Alan Dean Foster on the title page though solely credited to George Lucas. Published five months before the film's release this popular novelization was the world's first encounter with a long-form story from the galaxy far far away. The cover bears one of Ralph McQuarrie's famous concept illustrations a critical element in 20th Century Fox's decision to greenlight the Star Wars project. Before audiences had seen the special effects heard the sound design or absorbed John Williams's orchestral score Lucas's fast and intense story sold millions of copies. This book version is "perhaps most notable for allowing its readers to experience the interiority of characters from the film. Although the film establishes Leia's willingness to shoot the stormtroopers the novelization allows its readers to imagine the consequences of her act more vividly by narrating the stormtrooper's thoughts and aspirations" Webster p. 51. The novelization includes several key details omitted from the finished 1977 film but later retconned into the series including Palpatine p. 1 the Sith p. 8 and a medal for Chewbacca p. 219. By contrast the most famous opening line in film is here given as "Another galaxy another time". Octavo. Original pictorial wrappers designed by Ralph McQuarrie edges yellow. Bookseller ink stamp to first leaf. Extremities of wrappers creased and rubbed rear wrapper and bottom edge warped occasional spotting. A very good copy. Jeremy W.
