1940158584New York: The Hickory House 1940. Vintage three-color dinner menu from the renowned 52nd Street jazz club circa 1940s with a "Chef's Special" card stapled to the top outer corner of the second leaf.<br /> <br /> One of the longest running and premiere jazz clubs of "Swing Street" as 52nd Street between Fifth and Seventh Avenues was known in the 1930s through the 1950s Hickory House was opened shortly after the repeal of Prohibition in 1933 by impresario John Popkin. Featuring a huge oval music bar depicted on the cover of the menu on offer here Hickory House was both a swing venue and the spot to grab dinner and cocktails before a show. A musician's club Hickory House presented and served jazz luminaries for three decades. Among those known to perform or frequent the venue included Duke Ellington Louis Armstrong Benny Goodman Artie Shaw and Thelonious Monk among countless others many of whom were known to be found sitting in with the house band The Hickory House Trio Marian McPartland Bill Crow and Joe Morello on Sunday afternoons in the 1950s. In 1956 jazz pianist and composer Jutta Hipp released two acclaimed Blue Note albums recorded at the club "At the Hickory House Volume 1" and "At the Hickory House Volume 2." By the mid 1960s the venue was one of the last of the jazz clubs left on 52nd street and by the end of the decade closed. As noted on the back of the menu "Life! Life! From ten thirty until scrambled eggs there is always a popular swingy rhythm band to beat out tuneful and catchy syncopations in their own inimitable style."<br /> <br /> <br /> 10.75 x 14.25 inches bi-fold. Very Good plus with light soiling rubbing and edgewear overall and a faint horizontal crease. The Hickory House unknown
Very Good Greek, Modern (post 1453) Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In Greek (Modern). 79 p. Not in OCLC. The Metropolis of Chalcedon is an ecclesiastical territory (diocese) of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Christianity spread in Chalcedon during the 2nd century AD. The city was initially the see of a bishopric before being promoted to a metropolis at 451 AD, at the time of the Fourth Ecumenical Council. It is one of the four remaining active Greek Orthodox Church metropolises of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Turkey today and the only one surviving in Asia Minor (Anatolia). During the 14th century, the metropolitan see remained vacant, due to the Ottoman conquest of the region. However, it was reorganized in the 15th century, possibly after the Fall of Constantinople and the subsequent incorporation of the Ecumenical Patriarchate into the millet system of the Ottoman society. The first recorded metropolitan of that time was Joseph, in 1477. In the following years, the jurisdiction of the metropolis was extended to the east. During the late 17th century the see of the diocese was transferred to Kuzguncuk (Ermoulianai, Chrysokeramos), where it remained until 1855. At that period a number of monasteries were established, like the one of Saint Panteleimon, which was declared Stauropegic. The metropolitan of Chalcedon was one of the five Elder metropolitans from the wider region of Constantinople, the other being those of nearby Herakleia, Cyzicus, Nicaea, and Nicomedia. Following an Ottoman decree of 1757, they had to be always present in the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and had direct access to the Ottoman Sultan, to whom they announced the election of the new Ecumenical Patriarch. From the mid-19th century, the local metropolis prospered thanks to the significant population increase and economic development of the local Orthodox population. In 1855 the see of the metropolitan returned to Chalcedon during the primateship of Metropolitan Gerasimos. Moreover, the newly erected church of Saint Euphemia became the new cathedral. The metropolitan mansion was built near the cathedral in 1902. This is the first and only known printed regulation book of the Greek Community in Chalcedonia (Kadiköy). Extremely rare.

76902The charter rules of Barbaric Creed a Harley Davidson motorcycle club which likely was formed in Southern California in the 1970s. The four-page document is housed in a commercial blue cardstock folder with no date or location. There are no mentions of Barbaric Creed in newspaper reports or in references on 20th century motorcycle clubs. The date and location offered are presumed because of unrelated materials acquired along with this folder.<br /> <br /> The first page of the document is a preamble which is followed by three pages of rules concerning membership recruitment and conduct. In addition to being Harley Davidson riders only members are required to attend 2/3 of meetings and be "responsible for their prospects and their ol' ladies actions."<br /> <br /> Given the menacing name and some of the language in the rules it appears the club was in the "outlaw" camp. Members could not join other clubs or belong to law enforcement anyone who left the group was required to forfeit their colors and any "beefs" would be settled internally. The rules conclude: "This club does not condone the use or possession of drugs alcohol or any controlled substances This is just a disclaimer of responsibility. If any member or members engage in illegal activity that's your business. Don't involve the club. Don't even think about rippin off a brother - it will be your ass if you do."<br /> <br /> A unique and compelling internal document from the underground world of postwar American motorcycle clubs and gangs. unknown

It is unclear when the group began holding formal meetings; extant minutes for this iteration of the club begin with June 15 1928 and end without warning or explanation on Oct 18 1929 leaving about twenty blank leaves in the minute book. As this last recorded meeting was held just six days before the stock market crash the cause for this cessation of club activities may be conjectured. We can find no public mention of the Club in its pre-Depression phase; the minute book included here would appear to be the only record of its existence. <br /> <br /> The Club was reconstituted on August 16 1935 in the depths of the Great Depression by Verderber and about twenty others. Included here are multiple drafts both in manuscript and mimeograph for the new Club's Constitution and By-Laws which specify that members shall be "White Male Riders and Owners of Motorcycles" emphasis in the original but "may bring their wives or such persons as they see fit to club-affairs." The earliest minutes appear to be missing but the archive's record of meetings is complete from January 1937 to March 1 1940 which appears to have been the Club's last official meeting so marked in the minute book though other evidence included in the archive suggests that the club persisted for at least a few more years perhaps more as a social group than a functioning organization. For the first two years meetings focus mostly on club events including meets tours and rallies. The availability of beer at meetings is a topic that arises with some frequency as does the matter of the American Motorcycle Association for which at least a few members express strong antipathies see our note regarding Outlaw motorcycle clubs below; at one point it appears that a club faction even attempts to launch their own regional association the Midwest Motorcycle Association to challenge the AMA's supremacy in the promotion of meets "gypsy tours" and hill climb events. Eventually the Ozark M.C. appears to have made the decision to affiliate with the A.M.A. though we mysteriouly do not find any vote for this decision in the meeting minutes just correspondence from the AMA sanctioning club events but it clearly cost the club some members: by 1938 membership had dwindled from 22 riders to no more than a dozen. In later years beginning especially around mid-1939 meetings address with increasing urgency the Club's dwindling membership and futile attempts to collect dues from the many members in arears. By early 1940 it seems the eight remaining members can agree on very little; the minutes grow sparse and by March of that year the Club appears defunct. <br /> <br /> This winding narrative is supported by the archive's many other documents including correspondence which includes several lengthy letters from club president Verderber to prominent public figures including Franklin Delano Roosevelt publicity materials and especially photographs which are remarkable: all are vernacular nearly all captioned with names and dates taken during biker events throughout the midwest evoking the rough-and-tumble nature of early cycling events and the decidedly proletarian milieu in which they took place. "Outlaw" culture was still a few years away from being fully articulated by clubs such as The Outlaws The Boozefighters The Bandidos and others; but its roots are most definitely to be found among these risk-taking beer-drinking blue-collar riders of the Great Depression.<br /> <br /> The roots of Outlaw motorcycling in America have been widely documented typically traced to the years directly after the Second World War when returnig G.I.'s out of work and deprived of the close bonds they'd formed in battle found an outlet in the rough and occasionally dangerous world of open-road cycling. "Outlaw" Clubs - those that refused to affiliate with the American Motorcycle Association a commercial trade organization founded in 1924 - developed a mostly undeserved reputation for antisocial and sometimes violent behavior cemented in the public imagination by the 1953 Marlon Brando film The Wild One and its many imitators. But as is clear from the evidence in this archive an independent and contrarian spirit prevailed even in the pre-War years and we suspect it was members of Depression-era clubs such as this one who were most active in forming the post-war Outlaw clubs. In fact Verderber in one telling line from a long letter to his girlfriend included here describes himself as an "outlaw" rider - then thinking better of it crosses the word out and replaces it with "independent." By war's end such reticence would be a thing of the past; independent bikers would begin wearing the "outlaw" label proudly and defiantly. And though the use of the term "outlaw" before the war is hardly unnown - the Outlaws M.C. of Chicago were using it as early as 1935 - documentation of these pre-War motorcycle clubs is nearly non-existent making the current archive an invaluable resource for both the study of working-class culture in the midwest and one of the earliest instantiations of a uniquely American subculture. unknown
