1927160884N.p.: N.p. 1927. Vintage photograph album containing 65 photographs compiled by cellist Carl Steppi between 1926 and 1927 documenting a tour with an orchestra in support of the 1925 film. A unique collection of vernacular photographs many with manuscript captions in English and German. Steppi is identified in contemporary newspaper articles as having been a cellist for the St. Louis Symphony in the early 1920s.<br /> <br /> The tour was apparently by rail as the archive includes several photographs of the assembled musicians outside train cars and one photograph of the musicians in a passenger car. The dates of the tour are noted on the album's first blank leaf captioned with "On the Road with the Picture 'Ben Hur' Goldwyn-Mayer Corporation / September 1926." The album's last leaf bears a photograph of presumably Steppi's wife and child captioned "Und endlich Kam die ersehnte Heimhehr! And finally the longed-for Homecoming! / Brooklyn N.Y. / Back in: April 24 1927." <br /> <br /> The many locations captioned in the photographs are: Illinois Dixon Rochelle and Rock Island Iowa Anamosa Cedar Rapids Clinton Davenport Des Moines Grinnell and Muskatine Kansas Wichita Missouri Kansas City and Hannibal Ohio Zanesville Texas Austin Dallas and Gainesville and West Virginia Charleston and Huntington with Gainesville incorrectly noted as being in Oklahoma.<br /> <br /> Jewish prince Ben-Hur is sent to prison at the behest of his childhood friend Messala as a result of a mishap during a Roman parade. Through sheer will the prince endures prison and once released vows revenge on his childhood friend. The most expensive silent film made with a budget of $3.9 million. <br /> <br /> Shot on location in Italy and California.<br /> <br /> Album: 10 x 6.75 inches 30 pages.

1913131914Neuilly-sur-Seine France: Gaumont 1913. Vintage double weight matte finish photograph from the legendary 1913 silent film serial. Printed onto heavy card stock for use as the equivalent of a modern day lobby card. With the Gaumont logo at the lower right corner. <br/><br/>The first of Feuillade's three film serial masterpieces followed by "Les Vampires" 1915 and "Judex" 1916. Feuillade took the brave task of putting to film Fantomas already wildly popular with European audiences. The character can be seen as an outgrowth of the "hero thief" character Arsene Lupin from turn-of-the-century French fiction. But unlike Lupin Fantomas was completely comfortable killing those who got in his way sadistically and with no small amount of enjoyment. <br/><br/>The scene pictured here shows Jaques Dollon Andre Luguetat at the police station sitting at the center having been framed by Fantomas. The journalist Fandor Georges Melchior standing in for Inspector Juve who is on the lam in disguise as a hobo stands over Dollon as a police inspector sits at a corner desk. Dollon goes on to escape then be captured by Fantomas who murders him cuts off his fingers and throws his body into the river. Fantomas then sews the fingers into a glove and commits further crimes continuing to implicate Dollon who in addition to being innocent is now dead. <br/><br/>11 x 9 inches.

1972WRCLIT70666New York: The Ely Landau Organization Inc. 1972. 1A-I208 leaves. Quarto. Mechanically duplicated typescript printed on rectos only of pale green stock. Bradbound in production company binder. Light soiling to fore-edge otherwise very good to fine. A "revised" draft of this adaptation for film of O'Neill's masterpiece undertaken as the first production of the innovative but short- lived American Film Theatre. The script is accompanied by a two page "Production Requirements" list dated 12 January 1973 and a "Staff and Crew List" dated 3 days earlier. John Frankenheimer directed the November 1973 release starring Lee Marvin Frederic March Robert Ryan Jeff Bridges Bradford Dillman et al. The 239 minute film does in the minds of many critics great honor to the sourcework and stands among the finest moments of the two seasons of the American Film Theatre. A substantially truncated version saw some distribution on television in later years but only recently has the original full-length version which required two intermissions been made available on DVD. Robert Ryan was the posthumous recipient of several awards for his role as Larry Slade and contrary to expectations Lee Marvin excelled in the role of Hickey a role virtually defined by Jason Robards. Legitimate examples of the scripts for the American Film Theatre productions are uncommon. The Ely Landau Organization, Inc. unknown books

Mimeograph snipe on the verso of a few photos notes the Jean Louis clothing designs for the film. Photographers' rubber stamp also to the versos. <br /> <br /> Based on the 1938 novel "If I Die Before I Wake" by Sherwood King.

1942149126Hollywood: Mercury 1942. Vintage borderless reference photograph from the 1942 film showing director Orson Welles cinematographer Stanley Cortez and members of the cast including Joseph Cotton Anges Moorehead and Anne Baxter conferring during a lunch break. Mimeo snipe promoting Welles' Mercury Players and "APR 13 1942" stamp on verso. <br/><br/>Based on the Pulitzer Prize winning 1918 novel by Booth Tarkington.<br/><br/>Welles' followup to "Citizen Kane" 1941 was utterly different from Kane in style and texture but just as brilliant in its own way. Writer-director Welles does not appear on camera but his voiceover narration superbly sets the stage for the movie's action which fades in valentine fashion on Amberson Mansion the most ostentatious dwelling in all of turn-of-century Indianapolis. Despite the legendarily unsolvable problem of film editor Robert Wise being instructed by the studio-outside Welles' knowledge-to edit away nearly an hour of the film's length it remains a masterpiece of storytelling bringing Tarkington's Pulitzer winning novel to life in high style. <br/><br/>Nominated for four Academy Awards including Best Picture Best Cinematography and Best Supporting Actress for Moorehead. <br/><br/>8 x 10 inches. Faint glue shadow from snipe else Near Fine. <br/><br/>Complete collation details available on request.<br/><br/>Rosenbaum 1000. Godard Histoires du cinema.
