196482449New York: Yivo Institute for Jewish Research 1964. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. In English and Hebrew. Cover has some wear and soiling. Scuff on front cover. 37 pages in English with illustrations and 27 pages from the other direction in Hebrew with illustrations. Event program for the Exhibit at Roosevelt University Chicago April 1st through April 19th 1964 This Exhibition was made possible by a grant of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany. Includes The Nazi Impact on European Jewry by Salo W. Baron; The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation. Also contains information on the Destruction of Jewish Warsaw 1939-1945. Includes an Explanation of Some Uncommon Terms. Includes chapters on The Outbreak of the War and the Occupation of Warsaw; Life in the Ghetto; The Great Deportations; After the Deportations; "Bunkers" Are Built; Social Activities and Cultural Life The Uprising and Jews on the "Aryan Side". This catalogue also contains a partial list of Germans responsible for the Extermination of the Jews in Warsaw up to 1939 in Hebrew and in English. Also contains some of the Leading Figures in the Underground and in the Ghetto; Partial list of Germans Responsible for the Extermination of the Jews in Warsaw; and an Outline of the History of the Jews in Warsaw Up to 1939. Isolated from the world exposed to the depravity of the foe the Jews sought to survive through endurance self-discipline and self-help. When all proved to be of no avail the fighters of the Ghetto with the most meager of weapons rose against the army that held in its vise all of Europe. In their readiness to die was again manifest the people's indomitable will to life. Why the Exhibition. The sponsors wrote: Basically the inability of comprehension is due to a failure of language. Grim reality has so far outdistanced language that it left it mute and meaningless. For the taking of one life language has a word--murder. For the taking of hundreds of lives language had a word--holocaust. But what shall we call the taking of six millions lives Here language is silent only a cold objective number speaks. Betrayed by the means of communication we have to fall back for the presentation of this macabre reality the Jewish Catastrophe of our days on the immediacy of our senses. What the intellect fails to comprehend and the imagination is incapable of envisioning the eye must see and convey and impress on the mind. Hence this Exhibition. The Thematic Plan of the Exhibition was: 1. Jewish Warsaw up to World War II. 2. The Outbreak of the War and the Occupation of Warsaw; 3. The Ghetto; 4. Spiritual Resistance; 5. Mass Deportations for Annihilation; 6. After the Mass Deportations; 7. The Uprising; 8. The Aftermath; 9. Participation of the Ghetto Fighters in Resistance Outside the Ghetto; 10. Ruins and 11. Monuments. There was a documentary Nazi film shown as well. Yivo Institute for Jewish Research paperback

192262780New York & Buffalo NY: L.R. Steel Service Corporation 1922. Atlas folio. 11 x 21 in. One illustrated broadside in red & black printed on thick paper card stock two illustrations reproduced from the company’s sales book by R.E. Gifford minor closed tears creasing & chipping to fore-edges but now neatly repaired and mounted on thick archival backing board of this VG- scarce survivor apparently used for reupholstering a chair in 1923 and discovered in 1970. First edition of this exceedingly scarce original theatre lobby poster for the now lost and largely forgotten 3 hour 10-reel documentary silent film released in 1922 shown for free in 50 different localities designed to generate leads for Steel’s stock selling scheme. Founded in 1919 the L.R. Steel Service Corp. was an early chain store competitor of Woolworth’s Kress and other similar stores growing quickly to 75 stores but largely focused on promoting profits generated by pulling in small local investors. Each of the different films after depicting not only a history of American retail 5¢ and 10¢ stores and the business history of the Steel family concluded with a view of his store in the locality where it was shown. Steel 1878-1923 was a Pennsylvania native Progressive Era thinker who placed women in executive positions hired African-Americans for advertising and sales jobs and even intended to develop Niagara Falls into a permanent World’s Fair. In 1923 the entire predecessor to the Enron-like scandal collapsed in a stock scandal Rambler died enroute to beg for a loan from Henry Ford to save his company and the films were all seemingly lost leaving 60000 investors out-of-pocket over $ 26 million. In effect more individual investors lost money in Steel’s scheme than in the much better-remembered Ponzi scandal. One copy of the original companion book written by R.E. Gifford with the same title still survives at Penn State but no copies of either film or broadside appear to have been retained. Cochems 1877-1954 the director of the film was a noted opera singer as well as advertising and film director for the L.R. Steel Corp. as well as twin brother to the famed American football player and coach Eddie Cochems 1877-1953 considered by many as the “father of the forward pass†in American football.
