"This second edition is the story of the descendants of the original pioneers, including those who no longer live in New Finland and those who have never lived there at all. This new book is not an attempt to re-tell the story told in the 1982 first edition. Rather, it is a book about the people who have come from New Finland, those children and grandchildren and great grandchildren who have made their way in a world much different from that which the original Finnish pioneers discovered in the new country." - p.2. New Finland is located about 20km north of Wapella in southeast Saskatchewan, between the towns of Whitewood, Esterhazy, Tantallon and Rocanville, on the north side of the Qu'appelle River.

43009Los Angeles : AMG 1961 - 1976. 16 issues of Physique Pictorial all featuring covers designed by legendary gay artist Touko Valio Laaksonen known by the pseudonym 'Tom of Finland' each issue octavo pictorial wrappers each approximately pp. 32 black and white photographs of male nudes. The breakthrough publication which saw Touko Laaksonen's 'dirty little pictures' exposed to a broader gay readership. Laaksonen submitted his drawings to publisher Bob Mizer simply signed as 'Tom'. Mizer saw the envelopes had arrived from Finland so credited the works to Tom of Finland thus creating the pseudonym which would last through Laaksonen's career. While much of Tom of Finland's early career was spent 'under the covers' this pioneering erotic gay artist is now celebrated internationally for his genre defining subject matter and quality of execution. Tom of Finland's gay erotic drawings were recently the subject of a major retrospective at Kiasma the Museum of Contemporary Art Helsinki Finland. Physique Pictorial published by Bob Mizer's Athletic Model Guild AMG was the first all-male and all-nude magazine in the United States. It is an example of a 'beefcake' magazine which published images of athletic and attractive young men primarily for a homosexual clientele commencing prior to the relaxation of pornography laws in the 1960s and continuing through to . Interestingly the magazine editors are well aware of the controversial nature of the magazine's content and a number of articles relate to being the sensitivities of the material and the need for discretion in storing one's pictorial collection. As well as homoerotic photography Physique pictorial features black and white drawings by Spartacus Art Bob Bill McLane Tristrano Ted Kenton and numerous illustrations by the legendary Tom of Finland. Physique Pictorial ran from 1951 - 1990 during which social attitudes homosexuality male sexuality and the depiction of the male nude saw rapid and distinct change. In this extensive run spanning four decades images of masculinity range from being veiled in a healthy lifestyle outdoors in the 50s where full nudity was illegal through to explicit depiction of gay subcultures such as S&M bondage and leather fetishism of later decades and into a period where the impact of AIDS was being felt with particular brutality in the gay community. As such a collection such as this is a valuable record of gender studies and evolving social attitudes towards homosexuality. Upon the death of Mizer a vast quantity of negatives films and vintage publications were discovered in the Mizer estate. This collection is a fine set of original Tom of Finland illustrated issues from the magazine which launched his career. hardcover

23302Saltvik Aland Finland 21 April 1939. One page 4to fold marksgood condition. Text: ". My late answer does not indicate lack of appreciation although it must seem so. I am on the contrary deeply and sincerely grateful for your kindness of writing to me. Your letter reached me at a time when I needed encouragement and confidence more than anything else. I have during the last two years received many letters from appreciative readers of my book Katrina. But praise can sometimes cause suspicion and self-distrust and that I am afraid is what it has done to me. Your letter however written so long after that the ordinary flow of writings which follows any sensational happening was really encouraging and helpful. Such words by an American churchman make me date to believe that there was perhaps in spite of all something good in the book and it gives me hope for the possibility of future work. I came while I lived in New York to feel very warmly for America. This country stands now besides Sweden as a second country of mine and I do hope I shall be given the opportunity to visit America again." She says she enclosed a photograph not present to show her appreciation. Saltvik, Aland, Finland, 21 April 1939. unknown
