Preserving 132 original photographs & negatives sized from 2.5 x 3.5 in. up to 8 x 10 in. many of them linen-backed including as well four 7.5 x 9.5 in. silver gelatin photos mounted on 8 x 10 in. studio boards all 4 w/ evidence of having been previously framed w/ old matting residue and mounting glue at fore-edges 2 original negatives; Vol. II’s majority of images are 8 x 10 in. several sized 4 x 6 in. and a few silver print negative prints with most of the images in both vols. bearing photographer’s imprint on verso w/in negative or embossed in lower fore-edge many w/ annotations several w/ typescript explanations occasional minor soiling edgewear some evidence that linen-backed were intended to be held in post-binder salesmen’s sample albums for the Brenack Co.; two TLS dated 1932 and second dated 1943 w/ several negative photo state silver prints to hand out to clients as endorsement letters during World War II. All now preserved in pair of cloth-bound 3-ring binders nearly all images with bright crisp contrast and excellent archive. This factory photo sales archive captures the innovations of Thomas P. Brenack 1882-1961 with his groundbreaking streamlined methods of employing vast warehouse spaces for disassembling packing and shipping of automobiles trucks aircraft and odd-sized industrial equipment overseas out of the Brooklyn NY docks during the opening decades of the 20th Century. Before FedEX UPS and other shipping companies became household names Brenack while working for B.J. Hall & Sons had concluded that the port of New York was so congested with freight awaiting shipment and every stevedoring enterprise overloaded with orders a new freight system was required. Subsequently beginning in 1916 he designed an entirely new system of specialist teams to quickly and efficiently disassemble and package difficult items as well as implementing better cranes upgrading flatbed trucks to carry the large shipping crates along with more systematic flow. Eventually the company developed logistics warehouses with capacity of 40000 tons of freight and entire lumber yards and companies fed the warehouses with supplies sufficient to disassemble and box up to 300 automobiles per day for shipment by sea along with other specialist items such as large amphibian clipper aircraft. Brenack Inc. employed several different commercial photographers including Rudy Arnold 1902-1966 Garcia & Zeuner Inc. Al Hoffmann Photo George W. King Commercial Photographers Union Photo Co. and even the photos of military freight shot by the U.S. Signal Corps. The first archive album opens with photos of a Mack Truck packed into a large crate being hauled by a 1924 Fordson Tractor followed by images of a open stave bed Mack Truck for the Orinoco Oil Company and image of a Mack Truck entirely disassembled and neatly in piles ready to be crated. Further images show Ford touring cars awaiting disassembly nested truck chassis being prepared for boxing along with images of a MACCAR dump truck and early Mack passenger buses. Many of the photos show the staged crates and frames to hold parts carefully boxed freight wooden boxes for M.S. Friede Co. and still more showing piles of boxed parts for shipment to the Soviet Union. Other images depict the vast warehouse floor filled with chain-driven conveyors and wooden crates unspecified drums being loaded into barges; aircraft parts from the Keystone Aviation Co.for the U.S. Navy being loaded into ships; followed by series of photos showing massive Sikorsky boxes 50 feet long being loaded from flatbeds. The second volume opens with images of the Brenack Inc. wooden boxes followed by series of photos capturing the company’s specialized service of shipping aircraft. Images encompass those of the Lockheed Electra fuselage with landing ear down onto the barge “Clermont;†Ford Tri-Motor parts loaded onto deck of a ship; stages of trucks being disassembled; vast piles of crates and boxes in warehouses along with a photo of the E.F. Ryman Lumber Co. yard and truck which was a supplier out of Wilkes-Barre PA. A 1932 letter to Brenack dated April 4 1932 outlines that “The equipment arrived there in very good shape with the exception of one job which had the case broken and showed signs of being roughly handled the lower crank case was cracked on this pumper. . . Everybody down there Bogota was pleased with these jobs.†The TLS is followed by series of photos showing the Mack Truck fire trucks operating and then crated for shipment to Colombia. Many other photos show the loading of several of Sikorsky S-43 “Baby Clippers†being disassembled and shipped which were used primarily for flights in the Caribbean to Cuba and within Latin America. Others depict the Naval versions of the Grumman G-21 Goose flying boars which were 8-seat commuter aircraft. Of particular interest are the several photos including silver prints of original negatives for the famed Martin M-156 “Russian Clipper†which had been rejected by Pan Am as they decided to use the Boeing 314 for the Clipper line in the Asia-San Francisco routes. The M-156 was packed up and shipped to the Soviet Union by Brenack where it flew with Aeroflot in the Soviet Union’s far-East routes under the designation of PS-30 flying until 1944. Also included is an original TLS from the Commanding officer of H.M.S. LST 428 of the British Royal Navy dated June 1st 1943 writing that “With reference to the cradles and securing of two tugs on the deck of this ship. You will be pleased to hear that your work stood the passage excellently and although at times we were rolling 35 degrees each side we hever had to touch any of your gear. . . .†Included in this archive are several photostat copies intended as promotional customer letters to hand out to Defense Dept. officials and other war materiel shippers during World War II. LST-428 was a tank landing ship transferred to the Royal Navy in Feb. 1943 after commissioning as part of Roosevel’s Lend-Lease program during the War and was returned to the US Navy June 10 1946 and decommissioned and scrapped by Oct. 1947.

Thick folio. 13 x 19 x 3.5 in. 135 leaves numbered reverse in pencil on versos of last half. on linen with 4274 camera-ready clipart samples all w/ inventory numbers rubber stamped below the image sized approx. 2 x 2 in. throughout arranged in montages of 24 28 32 & 40 per page each carefully mounted some crossed out w/ annotation “Killed†and others worn through at the lower right corner of some leaves while just a few have been removed and in once case clipped from the upper fore-edge of the leaf. Contemporary light gray/beige buckram soiled dampstained wear at fore-edges partially shaken rebacked still a VG- exemplar. An extraordinary printing & engraving firm’s factory sample catalogue for over 4000 of their camera-ready clipart advertisements for subscribing businesses following World War II through the Great Depression and the New Deal programs of President Roosevelt. This superlative archive of images traces Art Deco styles spanning nearly two decades advertising campaigns printing styles fonts and with almost not repeated images offered by American Publishing & Engraving Co. AP&E Co. to their extensive client list. In addition these engravings capture the revolutionary changes in American industry and commerce with nearly 50% devoted to the automobile industry including automobile manufacturers and dealerships accessory suppliers automobile repair public safety from bad driving the fast-growing electric motors and battery industries and more. Ford the Dodge Brothers Buick Studebaker Cadillac Plymouth Auburn Chrysler Essex Auburn-Cord DeSoto Hudson Terraplane and many others all are featured here advertising their service departments features speed and more. A significant portion also reveal the very real needs to wash the cars clean engines repaint the lacquer update the automobile tops replace batteries repair radiators and the always pressing need to maintain safety equipment and tires. Interspersed as well are automobile movers commercial body builders for trucks and commercial delivery vehicles with a significant percentage showing cylinder grinding engine rebuilding boiler repair and other very necessary secondary market needs as metal alloys and tolerances were far less durable with breakdowns an ever pressing problem for the motorist. Public safety notices reflecting the impact of the Progressive Era illustrate the dangers of the automobile with many indicating streetcars potentially hitting stalled cars which had not been repaired properly gridlock automobile accidents from ignoring traffic signals and police traffic officers as well as speeders hitting pedestrians or ignoring motorcycle police traps. Early in the sample illustrations are many reflecting the interest in building large Tudor Revival or Arts & Crafts homes installing electric lighting new furniture stylish clothes & shoes beautiful Oriental carpets and jewelry and watches for young flapper-era women. There are also promotional ads for Art & Stained Leaded Glass windows for homes interior decorators a panoply of beauty products many reflecting the Flapper Era hair and dress styles as well as evolution of the Art Deco lettering. As the AP&E Co. continued to add their sample engravings through the Great Depression not only is there a greater emphasis on repairing automobiles shoes recovering furniture and even repairing mattresses reflecting the belt tightening of the 1930’s but there are also increasing influences of more streamlined automobiles introduction of appliances such as refrigerators appearance of beer ads following the repeal of Prohibition and the fast growing radio industry. American Publishing & Engraving Co. based out of New York was one of a myriad of job printer engraving firms who emerged at the end of the 19th Century and initially specialized in publishing local histories and genealogies for historical societies by subscription typically with illustrations. Although this cataloguer could find no specific trade reference either in contemporary magazines or newspapers they appear to have operated out of the same locations as the Atlantic Publishing & Engraving Co. with some overlap and by the beginning of the 20th Century had largely dispensed with publishing local histories engraved portraits or vanity press projects. Contemporary court cases and other references indicate that they operated a subscription service for businesses advertising art to be run in magazines newspapers pulps or added to trade literature for matchbook covers business flyers etc. and by 1916-1925 were managed by Thomas W. Smith. No similar factory sample collection or published collection located in Worldcat. American Publishing & Engraving Co., J.J. Schultz & Co., 184 William St., Bookbinder, hardcover

193946634Shanghai: Nishimura Company 1939. Edition not stated. Quarto 26.5cm; black simulated leather stamped in red and gilt in brown paper slipcover; unpaginated photo-illustrated plates w/ rice paper overlays. Wear minor scuffs and soiling to boards; toning and foxing intermittent throughout text especially on overlays; some overlays creased or torn. Slipcover worn and chapped with abrasions and two large one repaired tears across front panel. Photo-illustrated pastedowns and endpapers. Very Good in Good slipcover. All text in Japanese with some obsolete/antiquated kana/kanji oriented right to left. This is a privately-issued commemorative yearbook-type photo album shashin-cho published on behalf of the Imperial Japanese Army medical forces during the Second Sino-Japanese War 1937-1945. Specifically it was produced for those who served under military physician captains/commanding officers Nobuo Isa and Tetsuo Fukaya who were stationed in or near Shanghai at the time.<br /> <br /> By July 1939 the Imperial Japanese Army was beginning to feel the impact of its own mounting casualties and costs; the Chinese Red Army would launch a major offensive later that November. While the Japanese occupation of Shanghai was notably brutal there is little evidence of violence in this album. However some photographs do depict the aftermath of battle with ruined buildings and soldiers being treated for injuries. Other subjects are mundane in nature: Staff and group portraits hospitals and other facilities physicians at work company events and ceremonies. Also includes photographs of Shanghai and a fold-out map of the Hangzhou Bay area. Apparently not cataloged in OCLC or available commercially as of November 2019. Nishimura Company unknown
