1883149639Rochester NY: H. H. Warner & Co 1883. Softcover. G- Substantial edge wear and soiling to covers; page edges are beginning to flake off; pages are aged but not foxed; text is clear. Pinkish paper wraps 32 pp. BW illus. A pamphlet that touts the virtues of H. H. Warner's Safe Kidney & Liver Cure which treated Bright's disease; stones found in kidney and bladder; inflammation of the kidneys liver and urinary organs; and much much more. So safe a product was this medicine that its bottles carried a picture of a safe on them. This 32-page advertisement for the liquid is caged in the guise of a customer contest in which a total of $2000 would be doled out to various levels of winners. Top prize $1000; second prize $300; third prize $250 etc. All you had to do was figure out the 10 "enigmas" that ran along the bottom edges of these pages. Detailed directions for submissions were included. Since this is the "fourth annual pamphlet" this marketing approach must have worked for the Warners. But really most of the pages are testimonials from folks all over the country who used the medicine and were cured of their maladies and calamities. Each one carries a facsimile of the person's signature. The front and back covers show engraved portraits of a total of 18 gentlemen who are presumably either satisfied customers or people mentioned in the enigmas. Central on the front cover is Chester A. Arthur with his signature. It sure would be fun to track down all of the people named in this lengthy promotional piece. Ah well. Maybe you have the time. The seven-story Gothic style H. H. Warner Building still stands in Rochester and is on the National Register of Historic Places. H. H. Warner & Co paperback books

WALTER-FILM002150No binding. Fine. Fine Art Print Vintage original 41 x 81"" 103 x 203 cm. three sheet poster USA. Steve McQueen Robert Vaughn Jacqueline Bisset Don Gordon Robert Duvall dir: Peter Yates; Warner Brothers. The classic 1960s action-crime thriller with an iconic performance by Steve McQueen playing the San Francisco cop who becomes obsessed with finding the underground leader responsible for the deaths of witnesses in his protection. Here is one of the finest and most rare posters for this classic title. This example does not appear to have ever been used. Prior to expert linen backing it showed only very minor shelf wear and shows just minor shelf wear such as three minor fold juncture separations a bit of creasing at the very edges and a few minor spots of soiling in the white background. What makes this poster particularly desirable is the fact that the colors match correctly although this poster does not turn up much -- when it occasionally does very often the bottom section has colors which are misaligned with the rest and that most often requires restoration with paint. This copy is unrestored with great nicely matched colors and all the very minor original issues have been attended to in conservation. The poster is now just about as clean and bright an example as possible FINE. 10000.00 unknown books

McGann Alan Crosland; Warner Brothers First National. From the Erle Stanley Gardner novel THE CASE OF THE CARETAKER'S CAT came this Perry Mason film entry. Mason is asked to come during dead of night to a mansion to write a granddaughter out of her invalid grandfather's will to keep her from marrying a man the family does not approve of. The old man mysteriously dies and his two grandsons inherit all. The will stipulates that they must keep the caretaker and his cat on the premises however and the cat is suddenly in danger. Perry moves in to discover the old man's death was not as it seemed. June Travis as Della Street and Ricardo Cortez as Perry Mason seem appropriately startled in a moment of mystery in this card.
