Swanson on half-title. Raymond Gram Swing March 25 1887 - December 22 1968 was an American print and broadcast journalist. He was one of the most influential news commentators of his era heard by people worldwide as a leading American voice from Britain during World War II. Known originally as Raymond Swing he adopted his wife's last name in 1919 and became known as Raymond Gram Swing. During the 1920s Swing migrated to the new medium of radio journalism. Swing joined the Mutual Broadcasting System where in 1936 he began to broadcast on European affairs emerging as a strong voice of opposition to Adolf Hitler and Fascism. As the Nazis rose in power and influence and began to threaten Europe Mutual increased his broadcasts to five times a week. He also gave a number of lectures in the United States and abroad on the dangers of Fascism. Because of his prestige and credibility Swing was chosen to be chairman of the Council for Democracy a group founded in 1940 to support American rearmament and combat domestic isolationism. Swing was the narrator for the cartoon series How War Came nominated in 1941 for an Academy Award in the Best Short Subject Cartoons category. During the war Swing was reportedly the nation's highest-paid radio commentator. In book form the two sets of broadcasts made by the author:- the Czechoslovak crisis of the Spring; the period from the Nazi-Soviet pact to the declaration of war. W. W.

1944171071Camden NJ: RCA Victor Division 1944. From the collection of Rolling Stones drummer and jazz aficionado Charlie Watts: a delightful set of promotional cards. Jazz artists include Duke Ellington Fats Waller Tommy Dorsey Artie Shaw Glenn Miller Dinah Shore and Lena Horne. From the sweeter side come Perry Como Sammy Kaye Charlie Spivak The King Sisters and from out of left field Spike Jones. Fats Waller's death is remarked on his card Glenn Miller was evidently still alive - "enlisted in the Army September 1942" - so these cards must have been issued sometime between December 1943 and December 1944. 16 colour-printed post-cards 140 x 83 mm together with the original printed envelope with metal "butterfly" clasp closure. Cards very slightly rubbed the envelope a little soiled the clasp rusting but overall very good. unknown

1939List3675New York: Exclusive Publications Inc 1939. Nine pieces of sheet music. Folio. Titles include: “Azureâ€; “Caravanâ€; “In a Sentimental Moodâ€; “La De Doody Dooâ€; “Lost in Meditationâ€; “Prelude to a Kissâ€; “Scattin’ at the Kit Katâ€; “Solitudeâ€; “The Gal from Joe’sâ€. Generally very good plus to near fine with light handling wear; one piece “La De Doody Doo†signed by cartoonist Billy DeBeck. Covers bright with striking graphic illustration. Very good plus to Near Fine. An uncommon and quite visually appealing group of Duke Ellington sheet music issued by Exclusive Publications the publishing company established by Ellington’s manager Irving Mills during the 1930s to control and promote the band’s repertoire. Mills’s publishing strategy allowed compositions by Ellington and members of his orchestra to be circulated through sheet music and recordings while remaining closely tied to the Ellington organization itself a system that helped solidify Ellington’s growing reputation as a major American composer during the swing era. <br /> <br /> The cover designs are especially attractive with a highlight being the signed copy of “La De Doody Doo†signed by the illustrator Billy DeBeck. DeBeck was one of the most popular cartoonists of the era producing the Barney Google cartoon. Musically the collection includes several of the most enduring compositions associated with the Ellington orchestra. “Caravan†written with trombonist Juan Tizol became one of the band’s most recognizable pieces with its distinctive exotic harmonic color. “In a Sentimental Mood†“Prelude to a Kiss†and “Solitude†are among the defining jazz ballads of the twentieth century. Ellington first recorded “Solitude†with his orchestra in Chicago in January 1934; according to band legend the piece was composed in the studio twenty minutes before the recording session began. Other titles in the group—“Azure†“Lost in Meditation†“Scattin’ at the Kit Kat†and “The Gal from Joe’sâ€â€”reflect the collaborative environment of Ellington’s orchestra where musicians such as Juan Tizol contributed important compositions and Mills often participated in the publishing and lyric-writing process. <br /> <br /> Overall a visually appealing and historically significant group from the golden age of the Duke Ellington orchestra.
