193840886NP: NP 1938. Original artwork. Loose_leaf. g to vg. Quarto 10 3/8 x 8". Loose cardstock leaf.<br /> <br /> Original pre-WWII ink and watercolor artwork caricaturing seven major Nazi organizations. Although the signature of the German artist couldn't be deciphered the style is strikingly similar to the one of Albert Hohenester.<br /> <br /> The artwork depicts an impressive and rather frightful SS officer framed by a member of each of the following Nazi organizations:<br /> <br /> On the left side from top to bottom features a member of the Jungvolk 1 of the BDM 2 and of the HJ 3.<br /> <br /> On the right side from bottom to top features a member of the SA 4 of the Frauenschaft 5 and of the PO 6.<br /> <br /> The six half portraits measure from 2 to 3". Each one has rosy cheeks and is looking towards the SS officer 7 who is dressed in his full black uniform. He is seen posing with a certain martial authority: his bare right hand holding his belt buckle while his white gloved left hand holds the other glove. On his left arm features a Swastika armband. The officer's facial expression is severe and this harshness is highlighted by the fact that his right eye is closed his left eye is hidden behind a monocle his complexion is grey and has thin sullen lips. <br /> <br /> The SS officer is depicted in full 9 x 3 1/4" and is featured at center.<br /> <br /> Each of the seven characters is hand-captioned in pencil. The artist's signature in pencil features at lower left margin.<br /> <br /> Moderate and sporadic creasing closed tears and age-toning to upper margin and right fore-edge. Folding mark at center. Captions in German. Leaf in overall good artwork in very good condition. 1 The Deutsches Jungvolk German Youth was a youth organization in Nazi Germany for boys aged 10 to 14 and was a section of the Hitler Youth movement. Through a programme of outdoor activities parades and sports it aimed to indoctrinate its young members in the tenets of Nazi ideology. Membership became fully compulsory for eligible boys in 1939. By the end of World War II some had become child soldiers. <br /> <br /> 2 The Bund Deutscher Mädel abbreviated BDM League of German Girls or Band of German Maidens was the girls' wing of the Nazi Party youth movement the Hitler Youth. It was the only female youth organization in Nazi Germany. <br /> <br /> 3 The Hitlerjugend often abbreviated as HJ Hitler Youth was the youth organization of the Nazi Party in Germany. Its origins dated back to 1922. From 1933 until 1945 it was the sole official youth organization in the Third Reich and was partially a paramilitary organization; it was constituted of the Hitlerjugend proper for male youth aged 14 to 18 the Deutsches Jungvolk German Youth for younger boys and the BDM League of German Girls. <br /> <br /> 4 The Sturmabteilung abbreviated as SA literally Storm Department functioned as the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party NSDAP. It played a significant role in Adolf Hitler's rise to power in the 1920s and 1930s. Their primary purposes were providing protection for Nazi rallies and assemblies disrupting the meetings of opposing parties fighting against the paramilitary units of the opposing parties especially the Communist Party of Germany KPD and intimidating Slavic and Romani citizens unionists and Jews – for instance during the Nazi boycott of Jewish businesses. <br /> <br /> 5 The Nationalsozialistische Frauenschaft abbreviated NS-Frauenschaft National Socialist Women's League was the women's wing of the Nazi Party. It was founded in October 1931 as a fusion of several nationalist and National Socialist women's associations.

It began with a small guard unit known as the Saal-Schutz Hall-Protection made up of NSDAP volunteers to provide security for party meetings in Munich. In 1925 Heinrich Himmler joined the unit which had by then been reformed and given its final name. Under his direction 1929-45 it grew from a small paramilitary formation to one of the most powerful organizations in Nazi Germany. From 1929 until the regime's collapse in 1945 the SS was the foremost agency of surveillance and terror within Germany and German-occupied Europe. NP unknown

196262965Paris France & Madrid Spain: Harold Berson April 1962. 4to. Six original pen & ink sketches by Berson sized 6.75 x 8.8 in. preserved in the original “Dessin†sketchpad of the artist w/ cartoon on front cover and artist’s signature and date of 4/25/62 front cover tears at gutter margin of a couple drawings a couple detached still an excellent group of original sketches together w/ large unidentified charcoal drawing on recto paint blotches on verso from the artist working. A splendid portfolio of six original pen & ink sketches by the noted children’s artist for an apparently unpublished rendition of the adventures of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza from Cervantes. The first drawing depicts Don Quixote attacking the flock of sheet mistakenly believing that they were two armies marching against one another; freeing of the chained galley slaves; stabbing the wine sacks; waving sword and armour just before destroying the puppet show representing the Moors while Sancho Panza holds his head; as well as image of Don Quixote in the cow cart and Sancho Panza dutifully riding alongside.

1930D7486England c. 1930. Ephemera. Very Good. Disbound broken text block only; 176 x 227 mm; 78 lined pages with text handwritten in black ink and fine illustrations in ink and/or gouache; plus a photo and a short article clipped from a newspaper and neatly tipped-on. This volume perhaps fell into the hands of a terrorist younger sibling as a few pages are scribbled on or have chips or scuffs where it appears that a tipped-on item has been removed. Still the surviving pages are remarkable and -- since the binding is already broken -- begging for display. Our author intials his artwork "L.C.S." and his thoughtful text reveals his age 16 years the names of his fellow scouts Cooles Adams Burchett Matthews Moore and scout leaders Sanders Ward and some details about activities in Gilwell Park and around Bournemouth. But L.C.S. is clearly more interested in honing his artistic skills than writing much down -- the bulk of this volume is given over to his impressively accomplished decorative borders full-page gouache landscapes and comical ink sketches. He provides maps of camp sites at Colyton and Upton; cartoons of sites being invaded by cows or bees; goache portraits of Native American Indians or animals or sweeping landscapes; portraits of scouts in uniform that illustrate the different uniforms used in Spain Czechoslovakia Iceland Denmark Sweden Norway Siam Poland Scotland and Hungary. He excells at embellishments ornate lettering and decorative borders and it happens frequently that he'll create an elaborate border for a page but then neglect to fill it. <br/><br/> unknown
1945D7489likely Germany 1945. Paperback. Very Good. Heavy cardstock leaves oblong 325 x 250 mm bound with thin blue rope tassled along spine; pp. 54 with text handwritten in black ink in German and English with original illustrations in ink or ink and gouache both in text and full-page. Created from 32 leaves some of them glued together along the edges creating a new page when the author/illustrator wanted to change her lay-out text or illustration -- these have since become detached offering an interesting look at the author's creative process. Binding broken and leaves loose but in excellent condition suitable for display. The artwork is extraordinary -- showing cute little chicks as their adventure takes them from fields full of flowers to lakes brimming with colorful fish. It tells a story of 3 little chicks who find a mysterious blue egg which they are told not to play with but they do and learn some valuable lessons from the consequences. Though little is known about the author she appears in a tiny b/w photograph on the ultimate full-page illustration. More of her unrelated artwork is laid-in at rear including pastels of trees floral arrangements in gouache -- lovely suitable for framing. <br/><br/> paperback
193757594Portland OR: Howard Fisher The Oregon Journal ca. 1937-1947. Five original pen & ink cartoon drawings sized from 13.25 x 18.5 in. up to 14 x 19 in. executed on thick card stock w/ one embossed “Glarco No. 1†at outer fore-edge 1 w/ “Strathmore†blind stamp at upper corner all camera-ready for printer still retaining some pencil annotations & ruling at outer fore-edges of image four of the five signed at lower fore-edge one twice both with signature and the artist’s iconic beaver in checkered pants minor dustsoiling light toning to fore-edges of a couple still NF exemplars. These five exceptional original political cartoon drawings reflect not only the impact of the automobile and importance of automobile travel in the World War II-era Pacific Northwest but also offer an intriguing quick snapshot of many issues we still confront as a society today. The first shows a uniformed policeman setting on a bedstead with looming anthropomorphic license plate trying to convince a resistant driver hiding under his covers to renew his license plates. License plates at the time were issued annually with necessary fees to pay for road maintenance policing and also ensured that automobiles were drivable with many municipalities requiring safety inspections. The next two both address the public safety issues of traffic accidents and the toll on pedestrians against the backdrop that at the time few municipalities or states actually required driver’s training for licenses and in the late 1930’s and 1940’s accidents fluctuated from 75 to 125 fatalities per 100000 registered vehicles as opposed to less than 20 in the 2000’s. One shows driving tips and encouraging safer speeds while the other graphically includes a skeletal skull as a front grille at night hurtling towards a pedestrian in the rain. The fourth cartoon announces “Oregon’s tourist business will be lifted toward the $ 50000000 mark†and trees and fish all welcoming automobile travelers speeding towards the “Great Oregon Outdoors.†By the early 1940’s tourism driven by automobiles was the third largest business in the state and would further expand following World War II and later construction of the Interstate Highway system. The final cartoon touts the move to build the Sullivan Gulch Expressway which would later become the Banfield Freeway named after T. harry Banfield and I-84 with development around the Lloyd Center and other apartment housing. The site was one of the largest “Hooverville†shantytown during the Great Depression housing at one time over 300 living in 130 shanties and only really finally closed during World War II. Fisher 1890-1962 attended college in Eastern Washington later studied art at the Portland Art Museum and by 1919 had begun working as cartoonist with The Oregon Journal Newspaper where he would remain until retiring in 1956 publishing over 9300 editorial cartoons. His trademark was an impish beaver wearing one-suspender checkered trousers signed about two-thirds of his drawings with none usually dated but often dating with matter incidental to the events of the week. His topics ranged from the New Deal to Truman Eisenhower World War II War Atrocities local events and more. The University of Washington and University of Oregon both have portions of original Fisher political cartoons and caricatures.

196062025Albany OR: Fred F. Calson ca. 1960. Seven original paintings. Oblong folio. 20 x 15 in. painted in muted gouache on Crescent Illustration Board No. 300 with original label indicating the board were purchased from the Duedall-Potts Stationers in downtown Albany OR and all are signed by the artist minor age toning & wear to fore-edges very slight scuffing still an excellent bright group. This series of military industrial concept art paintings appear to have been executed sometime around 1960 and most likely for articles in Popular Mechanics Mechanix Illustrated or military-specific periodicals focusing on weapons development. The first painting captures a jet close to the Lockheed F-104 but tale configuration different bombing a section of jungle with massive explosion in center of painting; 4-tracked dozer & trailer being lowered by Sikorsky dual-rotor helicopter into the debris; the caterpillar 4-tracked dozer then clearing the debris and finally being reloaded into dual-rotor heavy-lift helicopter. Other proposed military applications for the same four-track platform were an ambulance in battlefield conditions with one soldier carrying another to the open back door; four-tube rocket launcher featuring sharp angles and planes foreshadowing the ungainly Tesla Truck and finally portable communications with revolving antenna and operator in rear half of the four-track vehicle. Although the proposed innovations as depicted in the concept art do not specifically mention a manufacturer or company these appear to be quite similar in operation and construction as the famed Tucker Sno-Cat 4-track vehicles which were historically developed and built in the company factory based out of Medford Oregon and famously used by Sir Vivian Fuchs in crossing Antarctica overland in 1958. Calson 1927-2009 was a Detroit-born commercial artist who served in the U.S. Army during World War II then the Army Air Force and later studied at Art Center. He became a noted industrial illustrator and commercial artist as well as farmer and woodworker. He was also well-known for his set designs and backdrops for the Lebanon Theater Workshop in Albany Oregon. Fred F. Calson, unknown
1931D45551931. Paperback. Very Good. A sweet little hand-made volume illustrated in full-color throughout; about 4.5-by-6 inches 20 pages including front and rear cover alternately bound with staples or glue. This joyful ode to Christmas booty as in presents features a Schnauzer in holly and red bow bounding through an alphabet of potential gifts as though through a store. Perhaps created as a mock-up story board or even a potential magazine lay-out it begins with Shophound sitting in his Vogue office on Christmas Eve most illustrations are drawn hastily though nonetheless legible and pleasing in colored pencil with two tipped-on illustrations cut from an unidentified source likely a Tiffany's catalogue. A little finger-smudged with graphite and with faint editorial notes in the margins buttressing the possibility that this is an early draft of a larger project. <br/><br/> paperback
