167124N.p.: N.p. 1971. Vintage script for the 1971 Broadway play. Working copy belonging to actor Ted Schwartz who served as the replacement for the roles of Ernie and the interviewer and as the understudy for the lead role of Lenny Bruce. <br /> <br /> Script annotated on every page in at least two hands indicating shared use by multiple performers-a common practice in theatrical circles.<br /> <br /> In 1969 Julian Barry was hired by Columbia Pictures to write an original screenplay about the life of Lenny Bruce. The prospects for the project were dulled significantly by the commercial success of "Love Story" which had created a temporary demand for romantic films which "Lenny" certainly was not. <br /> <br /> Barry suggested to theatre director Tom O'Horgan fresh off his success with the musical "Hair" that his screenplay be redone as a play. The play starring Cliff Gorman premiered at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre in New York City on May 10 1971 running for 469 performances and earning a Best Actor Tony Award for Gorman.<br /> <br /> Barry would go on to readapt the play for the 1974 film directed by Mike Nichols and starring Dustin Hoffman receiving an Academy Award nomination in the process. <br /> <br /> Maroon titled Studio Duplicating Service wrappers. Title page present undated with credit for Barry noted as copy No. 96 in manuscript ink. 71 leaves with last page of text numbered 2-30. Mimeograph duplication rectos only.

174325189Leiden: Joannem & Hermannum Verbeek 1743. From the first edition of one of the greatest of all Anatomical Atlases. Tabula IX which features Albinus and Wandelaar's famous "Muscle Man" a skinned figure whose musculature is visible and defined as viewed in walking profile with the left arm raised and the right foot forward his head is turned slightly away from the viewer. Elephant folio 620 by 475 mm single folio sheet now mounted with the use of none-evasive corner tabs and protected by mylar. Very well preserved fully intact with only the most minor evidence of age. ONE OF THE MAGNIFICENT PLATES FROM "AMONG THE MOST ARTISTICALLY PERFECT OF ANATOMICAL ATLASES." Wandelaar placed his skeletons and musclemen against lush ornamental backgrounds to give them the illusion of vitality using contrasts of mass and light to produce a three-dimensional effect. The most famous plate in the atlas depicts a skeletal figure standing in front of an enormous grazing rhinoceros sketched by Wandelaar from the first living specimen in Europe which had arrived at Amsterdam zoo in 1741" Norman.<br> The plates in this large folio work and in the four supplementary works in large folio with which it is bound are unsurpassed for their cool elegant aesthetic and scientific accuracy. They were drawn and engraved by Jan Wandelaer a pupil of the engravers Jacob Fokema and Guillem van der Gouwen and the painter Gerard de Lairesse who prepared the drawings for Bidloo's atlas. Prior to working for Albinus Wandelaer worked for Friedrik Ruysch. Albinus however provided Wandelaar with the opportunity for the full expression of his talents as a draftsman and engraver. <br> In an attempt to increase the scientific accuracy of anatomical illustration Albinus and Wandelaar devised a new technique of placing nets with square webbing at specified intervals between the artist and the anatomical specimen and copying the images using the grid patterns. Wandelaer placed each figure in a carefully chosen landscape setting and the artistic results are so pleasantly successful that the anatomical figures although composed of many separate parts appear to be actually stepping out of the picture.
