192920390New York: The Longacre Press Inc 1929. First edition. Hardcover. String ties. Paper pastedown. Cloth spine. Near Fine. Promotional souvenir program for a transitional Griftith film -- shot originally as a silent re-shot with some sound including most notably songs by Irving Berlin. 4to. 31 by 22.5 cm. Unpaginated 18 leaves. This Griffith film despite rave reviews was not a success at the box office despite the talent associated with it. It also catapulted Lupe Velez to stardom briefly and a personality whose antics became dependable fodder for the press. The story is one in which the male lead William Boyd is cast aside by his girlfriend and resolves that he could find a more suitable lover off the street which he does when he connects with a singer at a sleazy bar played by Velez. Boyd a popular Silent Era romantic lead would suffer a setback in the early sound era but resurrect his career and fortune in a series of Westerns in which he played Hopalong Cassidy. "Lady of the Pavements" may have been a disappointment commercially but one would not know that from this souvenir which is an object of real beauty with its textured wallpaper-like pastedown on the front cover -- the paper used looks like a premium Japon -- its thick glossy leaves its lavish photos and Art Deco illustrations and decoration. Some photos have touches of tinting although they are from full color. And much of the ornamental decoration on the page is in color. One could say that the souvenir expressed something of the ambition of the film-makers but the constraints of early sound severely constrained what they could have done otherwise temporarily reversing some of the breakthroughs in terms of movement and artistry achieved in the Silents made just a year or two earlier. Condition: edgewear tothe cover with slight loss of the paper pastedown upper front corner. A few leaves have a small corner dampstain which is only really conspicuous on one leaf and a relatively trivial issue even on that leaf. Otherwise clean and bright. And we will also note the color on the pastedown paper is very bright as well which often not the case with this publication. The Longacre Press, Inc hardcover

Above all and with that exceptional streak of modernity which characterises much of Wilde's life and works he understood the power of the image in his campaign of promoting himself. As early as his Oxford days he had himself photographed with his contemporaries in loud check suits of the latest fashion. Later when he toured America to lecture on aesthetics in 1882 almost as soon as he landed he commissioned Napoleon Sarony the best portraitist in New York to photograph him in fur coat and velvet suit; and in not one or two poses but at least twenty-seven. The Wilde Album now publishes more of these images of Oscar than have ever been seen together before as well as later photographs some previously unpublished from the family archive showing Oscar his family and his friends. There are also rare snapshots of Oscar in his last years in Italy taken most probably by a friend using Oscar's own camera which we know he owned from a letter of 1900." ; black cloth in color photographic dustjacket ; "The most comprehensive collection of photographs and images of Wilde--compiled by his only grandson." ; "Merlin Holland is a journalist and has spent the last twenty years researching his grandfather's life.

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.
