Chest for Liberation of Workers of Europe 1935. 1st edition original printed paper wrappers 31 pages; 18 cm.<br> “When it became apparent that the German government was determined to absolutely destroy the trade union movement in that country the American Federation of Labor in convention assembled in 1933 declared a boycott against German made goods and German service such boycott to continue until such time as the German government recognized the right of the working people of Germany to organize in bona fide trade unions of their own choosing and until Germany ceased its policy of persecution of Jewish people merely because of their religious beliefs. <br> Subsequent events which have transpired in Germany and in Austria have fully justified the position taken by the American Federation of Labor in 1933 and reaffirmed in 1934†from the foreword. <br> The "Chest for Liberation of Workers of Europe" was an American organization formed in the 1930s to oppose European fascism and support labor victims of dictatorships.

194543346Nyu-York New York: Zamoshtser Brentsh 375 Arbeter-Ring 1945. 1st edition of author’s first of seven published monographs all on the Shoah. Original printed paper wrappers small 8vo 31 pages 20 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates as “To You My Freed Brothers and Sisters: Postwar Problems of the Jewish People.†<br> Author's afterword:<br> <br> “In 1939 the author published a book about the formation of a young Jew. The author then wrote his book on Orthodox concepts. During the six years of camp life he grew older and changed. Along with all his works and writings this work was also lost to him. His motto at the time ‘Turn my back to Europe!’ confirmed the story with his bloodiest pen. <br> It is still quite a long way even with the current treacherous number of Jews in Europe to bring them all out in the best and only way for them: To the Land of Israel! With the ending of the exile we will lose the last psychologically and morally broken Jews. A seriously ill person is not taken a long way to a ‘Fulkom Heilanstalt’ but is given first aid on the spot right where he is lying!<br> And here is the cry for immediate momentary help concerning the present brochure.<br> As with a seriously ill patient - it has no son to lead in political or religious discussions! And so it is for the rest of our nation still in danger of going under as a nation perhaps even more than in the past! This brochure is therefore an appeal first of all to all political parties about the over-political danger of moral and physical collapse; About the suicidal and self-deprecating mendation of weak sick souls and the various evildoers of all kinds.<br> Of course it still lacks the concreteness the planning. But it is only a shriek which cannot be evaluated according to all the rules of the art of singing.<br> Here it is shouted: from one who has not lost the last bit of fire and the last bit of patience! It is only to encourage to remind and to make attention in every way.<br> To all those who consider themselves to be Jewish organizations this should be the call of the Ribs: come and strengthen the Jewish trembling knees! Keep them first at the Jewish consciousness and at their human height and later my dear later we will discuss.<br> <br> Paris June 1945.â€<br> <br> <br> Mordechai Strigler 1918/21-1998 was a “prolific Polish-born Yiddish writer and editor of the Yiddish Forward….<br> He…obtained a rabbi diploma….From 1937 he worked as a moral preacher in the Warsaw Great Synagogue. After the Germans invaded Poland he tried to return to his parents. However he failed was captured by the Germans and spent the following years in various forced ghettos and concentration camps. <br> From June 1943 he was then a prisoner in the Majdanek concentration camp. On July 28 1943 he was transported from there to work camp C in Skarzysko-Kamienna by prisoner transport. It was an ammunition factory belonging to the HASAG Group in which the prisoners without protective clothing were exposed to the picric acid used to fill underwater mines. This yellowing substance led to severe poisoning and reduced the life expectancy of the inmates to three months. <br> He wrote about his one-year stay there during his imprisonment but these records were lost. He was released on 11 April 1945 in Buchenwald….<br> After the end of the World War Strigler found a job with the Yiddish magazine Undzer Vort in Paris and settled there for the next seven years. The six-volume work Oisgebrente Likht Extinguished Lights was written here between 1948 and 1952 in which Strigler reports on his experience of the Shoah. Strigler had been in contact with the American-Jewish poet H. Leivick since 1945. He quickly recognized its literary potential. In 1952 Strigler emigrated to the United States and became editor of the Yiddish weekly Yidischer Kemfer in New York. He worked there until 1995 and wrote countless articles under 20 pseudonyms; between 1987 and 1998 the year of his death he also worked for the then Yiddish daily newspaper Forverts. <br> In addition to his journalistic texts Strigler also wrote poems memoirs political commentaries and stories and novels. The focus of his fictional narrative texts was the life of Polish Jews before the Second World War. It was also important to him not only to depict the personal and collective experience of the camp stays during the Nazi regime in a literary way but also to analyze it….<br> In 1978 Strigler received the Itzik Manger Prize for Yiddish Literature. In 1998 he was to be awarded an honorary doctorate in Hebrew literature from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America. A few days before the award ceremony however Strigler died†Wikipedia. <br> OCLC: 7413354.

197229863New York: United Artists Corporation / The Center for Understanding Media Inc. Fine. ca.1972. First Edition. Softcover. as new with no discernible wear of any kind. B&W photo cover An uncommon piece of Beatles-related ephemera consisting of four mimeographed pages text on one side only fastened together with a single staple inside a printed folder with a photo of the Fab Four on the cover. This was issued under the banner of UA:16 the non-theatrical 16mm distribution arm of United Artists to assist high school teachers who wanted to use The Beatles' 1964 debut feature film as part of their classroom curricula these teachers would have to have been quite a few degrees cooler than any high school teacher I ever had with the exception of Mr. Patrick Burns. Its contents are organized under four headings -- The Origin of the Film; The Filmmakers and Their Format; The Attitude of the Film; Suggestions for Usage -- and as might be expected from the imposition of such an overlay onto such an essentially anarchic film the results despite their obvious sincerity are often unintentionally hilarious. One sample: The film "according to type may be classified as an entertainment documentary or as an actuality reenactment or as all other kinds of contradictory terms. It is unique in its class because it sets out to record the actual face of an entertainment event without losing the distancing effect of cinema artifice." The "Suggestions for Usage" section begins: "A Hard Day's Night is basically an experience. In colleges it has a validity as a sociological study but on the high school level it is a chance for a teenager to confront himself and his values. The teenagers presented in the film are actually people not actors and as previously described by Hunter Davies 'emotionally mentally or sexually excited foaming at the mouth' etc. Although the film elicited the same reaction hopefully in the seventies in the classroom it would received a more balanced reaction. The movie itself is an antidote to runaway emotionalism." NOTE that I have dated this based in part on its inclusion of quotes from Hunter Davies's 1968 biography of The Beatles and Joseph Gelmis's 1970 book "The Film Director as Superstar." .
