1992034789Kingston: Kingston Publishers. 1992. "The Uncensored Story of Luther Campbell of the 2 Live Crew." Campbell's autobiography which deals to a great degree with the obscenity case brought against him and the Two Live Crew for their lyrics on an album with the same name as this book. When the album was declared obscene and illegal to sell Campbell and two others were arrested after performing songs from the album at a club in Florida. They were acquitted in their court case after Henry Louis Gates Jr. among others spoke on behalf of their lyrics. This book was published in Kingston Jamaica with a "Parental Advisory" notice on its cover because it was thought that it might not be publishable by an American publisher. When it was published in America after the trial and appeal had ended it became a bestseller but the Jamaican edition which is the true first is quite scarce. OCLC lists only 6 copies of the Kingston edition. Light wear to spine and corners; near fine in wrappers. Softcover. Near Fine. Kingston Publishers paperback books

1972120967Beverly Hills CA: United Artists 1972. Complete set of 8 lobby cards for the 1972 crime film "Across 110th Street." Because it is set in Harlem this very underrated crime drama is often lumped with "blaxploitation" pictures of the same era. In truth it belongs to the great pantheon of gritty violent police procedurals of the early 1970s-something of a New York City companion to Don Siegel's "Dirty Harry" released the year before. A few faint scratches to a couple of the cards and a faint dampstain to the bottom edge of a few others; a bright clean set overall. <br/><br/>Parish and Hill 3. United Artists unknown books
