192212673St. Louis 1922. Broadside 11.25 x 14.25 inches. Tanned short closed diagonal tear on right edge left edge a bit frayed tiny hip to top right corner otherwise minor edge wear. Fragile but in good condition. An unrecorded promotional broadside recruiting membership in the short-lived Paramount Progressive Order of Moose PPOM an African-American fraternal organization founded in the early-1920s by H.A. Stewart of St. Louis. The organization was created to serve the needs of the African-American community after the Loyal Order of Moose refused to admit Black members. The PPOM was gone by the 1930s following lawsuits from the Loyal Order of Moose who claimed infringement due to the PPOM's use of similar imagery. Still the PPOM offered members a number of benefits during its operations. According to the present broadside which asks "WHY NOT JOIN THE MOOSE" and touts itself as "One of the Most Progressive Orders" above the moose-centric logo at upper center the PPOM was "Now Open to Men and Women Between the Ages of 18 and 50 Years." Members could enjoy "Free Medical Aid" as well as sick and death benefits. Membership was $6 for men and half that for women with women receiving $3 sick benefits as opposed to $5 for men and $150 death benefit men received $200. Potential members are asked to contact the Grad Supervisor but the name city and state for said person is not filled in. A wonderful and evocative promotional broadside for an important though short-lived St. Louis-based African-American mutual aid society with no copies reported in OCLC. unknown

The censors crossed out so much of her material even in the pre-Code period that by the time a final script was approved she and director/mentor Joseph von Sternberg had little interest in making the film. They came through though with a brilliant odyssey highlighted by Dietrich in many moods all behind heavy diffusion.</p><p>Here is Dietrich as the down-and-out vagrant Helen Faraday with Sidney Toler as the detective on her trail.

1933WALTER-FILM001169William Faulkner source Vintage original pressbook "Press Sheet and AD-SALES Catalogue" UK. Pictorial wrappers 8 pp. 11 ½ x 9 ½" 30 x 24 cm. pages partly coming loose VERY GOOD.<br /><br />1933 pre-Code film based on William Faulkner's 1931 novel <i>Sanctuary</i>. An extremely rare film only shown at festivals on occasion since its release with only one known nitrate print in storage at UCLA. Along with <i>Baby Face </i>made the same year <i>The Story of Temple Drake</i> is one of the most notorious of the films from the pre-Code area so controversial that it was ordered never to be shown again after the Production Code Administration was instituted the following year.<br /><br />The controversy comes straight from Faulkner's source material wherein a wealthy and neurotic Southern belle is trapped in a hideout with a gang of vicious criminal bootleggers. The leader of the gang Trigger lusts after the woman and her subsequent rape is presented in a manner that was unheard of at the time. George Raft under contract to Paramount was assigned the part but found the part repulsive and went to battle with the studio in a suit that nearly cost him his career.<br /><br />This British pressbook has extensive illustrations of the notorious advertising and poster campaign which eventually made the film's release such a troubled one. A rare piece from a film that is legendary in the history of literary adaptation and film censorship. It is very interesting to note a few references to Faulkner in the text as he was not yet a well-known author much less in the UK. Paramount British paperback

Near fine. </em></p><p>A beautiful portrait of Anna May Wong for one of her most substantial roles in a major talking film the notorious pre-Code opus <em>Shanghai Express</em> directed by Josef von Stroheim. Though Wong received third billing behind Marlene Dietrich and Clive Brook her portrayal of Hui Fei is universally regarded as a masterclass in acting. Hui Fei is a fiercely independent woman navigating a train ride from Peking to Shanghai during the Chinese Civil War which is hijacked by rebel forces. Her performance often overshadowed Dietrich's. Unfortunately she would not be cast in another role as complex as this. Wikipedia</p><p>Photo coded P671-245.</p> Paramount
