193815131938. Typed Letter Signed to Lewis E. Gensler from S.S. Van Dine with Western Union Wire from Van Dine to Gensler--1938<br /> <br /> Letter measures 10.5 x 7.25 inches; wire measures 6.5 x 8 inches. Letter is toned with previous folds--very good condition. Wire has chipping and wear to edges and is very toned--good condition. Verso blank on both.<br /> <br /> Enigmatic letter and telegram between two famed personalities of Hollywood S.S. Van Dine Willard Huntington Wright and Lewis Gensler. Willard Wright was an American art critic and social gadfly within entertainment circles but ultimately achieved financial success writing pot-boiler detective novels starring Philo Vance under the pseudonym of S.S. Van Dine. <br /> <br /> Lewis Gensler's work spanned both coasts as a composer songwriter author and producer. He often incorporated his songs into films he produced. His movie "College Swing" starring George Burns Gracie Allen Martha Raye and Bob Hope is referenced in Van Dine's letter. Gensler primarily was associated with Paramount Pictures.<br /> <br /> Van Dine humorously writes in the undated letter "We ironed out a few details straightened a couple of incipient kinks and beat the shell game by lifting the hat hiding what seemed to be the most promising idea." Van Dine had just had a lunch date with a "Mr. Holman" who likely worked with Lewis Gensler. <br /> <br /> The telegram dated Feb. 24 1938 sent the day before Van Dine was to meet Holman states "Outline going first rate and licking nicely with a double snapper. With no more Jack Louis fights scheduled hereabouts and all the local racetracks closed you should have a first draft in a week or ten days." <br /> <br /> In the early 1930's Van Dine wrote screen treatments for Warner Brothers including 12 two-reel "murder mystery" short films. <br /> <br /> Piecing the dates together we surmise Van Dine was writing the screenplay for the "Gracie Allen Murder Case" his last novel. The novel published in 1938 was released as a movie produced by Paramount Pictures shortly after Van Dine would pass away in April 1939. unknown
Fine Turkish Original two b/w photos of SS Üsküdar. 9x14 cm. SS Üsküdar was a small passenger ferry built in Germany for the Turkish company Sirket-i Hayriye and launched in 1927. She sank in lodos weather on March 1, 1958 in the Gulf of Izmit. The accident killed 272 people on board including seven crew, 39 survived the incident. SS Üsküdar was built by F. Schichau Shipyard in Elbing, Germany in 1927 with funnel number 72. She was the first of two identical vessels the Turkish urban transportation company Sirket-i Hayriye commissioned in the Republican era. She was 33 m (108 ft) long with a beam of 6.6 m (22 ft) and a draft of 2 m (6.6 ft). Three steam engines of 350 shp (260.99 kW) propelled her initially at 10 knots (19 km/h; 12 mph), which later dropped to 8 knots (15 km/h; 9.2 mph). SS Üsküdar was capable of carrying 344 passengers. 430 lifejackets, 35 lifebuoys and two lifeboats were on board the ferry. SS Üsküdar was on scheduled shuttle trips on the Sea of Marmara between Izmit and Degirmendere, a town on the southern coast of the Gulf of Izmit. On March 1, 1958, "lodos", a heavy SW storm was raising high seas. Mehmet Asçi, captain of SS Üsküdar, departed the ferry three minutes before the scheduled time of 12:30 local time from Izmit Pier, because the vessel was more vulnerable at the pier than at open sea. Shipmate Ali Kaya, who jumped onto the pier and untied the hawser, could not return to the ferry as the ship suddenly left the pier. The ferry had nine crew and 302 passengers aboard including 76 students from a local vocational high school. As the ferry headed to Degirmendere, high waves raised by the storm blowing at 130 km/h (81 mph) rocked the small vessel. The bridge broke off and fell into water, taking the captain and the boatswain with it. The rudder chain broke leaving the ferry uncontrollable. Water filled the engine room and the front passenger department after breaking the window glass. 26 minutes from her departure, SS Üsküdar careened over on the port side and sank at 12:53 local time. 272 people died including 38 students and seven crew. 37 passengers and two crew survived the disaster. Eight days after the incident, the Turkish Navy started a search and rescue operation. The muddy seabed hindered salvage efforts. On March 19, 1958, after eleven days of endeavors, the wreck was lifted with three slings off the 35 m (115 ft) deep seabed. Four corpses were recovered. It was observed that at some places, the steel sheets of the ship's hull were torn. (Wikipedia).
