WALTER-FILM001074No binding. Fine. Fine Art Print Vintage original 11 x 14"" 28 x 35 cm. title lobby card USA. Richard Widmark Linda Darnell Stephen McNally Sidney Poitier dir: Joseph L. Mankiewicz; Twentieth Century Fox. Brilliant Academy Award-nominated screenplay by director Mankiewicz which dealt with racism and bigotry. The film was shocking and controversial when released for its subject matter and perhaps more so today but for the reasons of its political incorrectness. It is an important document of where Americans were in 1950 and how far things have come in the years since. This is one of the most dynamic pieces of poster art ever created. The campaign was known to feature some of the very earliest of Saul Bass' art. The lay out for this piece of art is attributed to Paul Rand with Saul Bass perhaps involved in the title treatment. Card features Aug. 12 1950 stamp on verso is like new pristine and never used FINE. unknown books

177928070London: G. Kearsly 1779. Fifth edition improved and corrected with upwards of 50 additional illustrations and explanatory remarks. 4to pp. 6 5-56. Bound without the half-title in new boards and end papers small paper repair at the bottom of the title-page. A fine clean copy. The British Mueum attributes this to Shute Barrington the Bishop of Landaff; however the NYPL copy has a MSS note suggesting the author is Charles Fox a more likely candidate. Not in Halkett and Lainge. The lady president of this "mock meeting " is Aa BAss Cs late Ma ss of Cn. known as AmeIia Baroness Conyers Late Marchioness of Carmarthen who eloped from her husband with a John Byron who with his second wife was the parent of Lord Byron. Parliament granted her husband a divorce in May 1779. In reading through the Parliamentary debates for 1779 we find a dismayed Bishop introducing a bill to discourage adultery: i.e. attempting to prevent the adulterer read woman from marrying her lover. Citing the increase in the number of divorces in this recent reign the Bishop calls upon the Parliament to punish such behavior before the entire social fabric unravels. During the discussion in the House of Commons Charles Fox vehemently opposes this bill calling it "unequal unjust and tyrannical." In this marvelous scathing tract the titled ladies discuss their marriages perceptions of their lords and power and in the final vote recollecting an incident from Don Quixote decide to toss the Bishop about in a blanket. It seems highly unlikely that the conservative Bishop would have had such a laugh at his own expense. On a more serious note this is an important look at the state of marriage and divorce during the late 18th century in England. G. Kearsly unknown books

1871WRCAM43342Paris 1871. Handcolored lithograph 13 1/2 x 9 inches matted to 19 x 14 inches. A few light spots of foxing in margin but image quite bright and clean; a few small scuffs to uniform. Very good plus. Plate from Jules Renard Draner's series of caricatures entitled TYPES MILITAIRES: GALERIE MILITAIRE DE TOUTES LES NATIONS published from 1862 to 1871. Draner - which was his nom de plume - was a Belgian artist who settled in Paris. Though he undertook a career as a businessman he never lost his zeal for drawing and caricature and in the 1860s he undertook to satirize the world's zest for military pomp with a series of 136 color lithographs depicting various military uniforms from around the world including ten plates showing American uniforms. Though his drawings were executed with an eye toward entertainment and caricature each shows accurate military dress down to appropriate use of feathers and buttons. This image shows a portly artilleryman presumably a German settler in Missouri decked out in a blue uniform with red trims holding a plate in one hand and a fork in the other. He is in New Orleans as indicated by a poster behind him evidently as part of occupying troops during the Civil War. He directs a horrified look at the bits of red food on his plate and fork perhaps intended to be some sort of foreign or New Orleans delicacy. Quite nice and highly displayable. COLAS 891.
