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

Story of a San Francisco detective who suffers from vertigo and in investigating a friend's wife becomes obsessed with her. His vulnerable trait is well-known by those who have hired him and they have quite an agenda.

Lobby card no. 2 for the 1963 re-release features the Golden Gate Bridge portraits of Hitchcock Stewart and Novak and the scenes in the cemetery where Stewart discovers an important clue. Since the original 1958 cards are all printed in only two colors they lack the phantasmagoric vivid colors of the film which are much more properly reflected in the 1963 lobbies such as this one. There are single and double light pin holes at top blank white margin border right and left corners and center and same at bottom blank white margin border NEAR FINE. unknown books

WALTER-FILM000176No binding. Very Good. Fine Art Print Vintage original 14 x 17"" 35 x 43 cm. jumbo lobby card USA. Clara Bow Frederic March Rex Bell dir: Frank Tuttle; Paramount. This is the story of a girl who works at a soda fountain in San Diego. She is the favorite of all sailors who come to port. Each one is her favorite as well as they come in at separate times. Problems arise whenever they arrive at the same time. However Ruby Nolan really pines mainly for the one gob who will not give her the time of day -- it is her mission to peak his interest. Film was made in both talkie and silent versions. Bow was known to audiences for her irresistible personality and for her red hair and this fantastic image highlights just that! It also shows her with her many boyfriends including Frederic March with his arms around her and soon-to-be husband Rex Bell at lower right. One of the highlights experienced in the sound version only was Bow's singing of ""Believe It or Not I Lost My Man"" -- that would be hard to believe. Both the silent and talking versions of this title are extant. This is a museum quality piece VERY GOOD. unknown books
