1955137035Los Angeles: Joseph Cossman 1955. Original merchandising poster for a non-existent film circa 1955 created by entrepreneur Joseph Cossman for no other purpose than to sell the poster via mail order to individuals who wished to live in a world where they co-starred with Jayne Mansfield as their romantic female lead. In this case the lucky man was Ernie Cisney. <br/><br/>The poster was printed first as a four-color poster lacking the name of the co-star below Jayne Mansfield's and when the orders came rolling in the purchasing party's name would be added. Apart from the names of Cossman apparently the inventor of "Cosmo-Color" and Mansfield-along with a wild appropriation of the Fawcett Gold Medal logo at the top right corner-none of the names on the poster represent real persons in the film industry. <br/><br/>Cossman was a mail-order magnate responsible for the invention and marketing of such memorable 1950s products as the Spud Gun and the Ant Farm marketed entirely through comic books newspapers and magazines. The poster here represents an attempt on Cossman's part to sell posters as inventions rather than an advertisement of an actual film. Though it no doubt never crossed Crossman's mind a fascinating early example of meta-advertising. <br/><br/>Research has produced two other examples of the poster images only with the same design but different fictional names this being the only actual example of the poster we have handled or seen. <br/><br/>17.5 x 28 inches. Folded with a few pinholes at the corners a couple of short separations at the folds and a tiny chip at one corner. Very Good overall. Joseph Cossman unknown books

1937005398Milano: G. Ricordi & C. Editori 1937. First edition. Wraps. Very Good. Scarce libretto of a strange Futurist one act opera with talking a tree Euphobia shrubs and airplanes among the characters some of which are actually human --aviators soldiers and natives -- even if they intone like actors in a Greek tragedy. This oddball propagandistic work more an oratorio than opera celebrates war "sweet war" aviation and territorial conquest -- the things that cast a spell on so many Futurists and which were the essence of Fascism. Three copies located on OCLC of this libretto brochure at Berkeley Harvard and one in Italy. There are copies of the printed music elsewhere. The work was first performed at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in 1937. 8vo. 20 by 13 cm. 23 pp. Dedicated to Mussolini. Pavolini like many adherents of the Futurist Movement came to embrace Fascism. In his case he had a brother who was a prominent member of the Fascist heirarchy. After the war Pavolini found success as a screenwriter. Age toning to the leaves. <br/><br/> G. Ricordi & C.
