Very Good
Description
Paris: Alliance Cinématographique Européenne, 1939. Wraps. Very Good. 4to. 31 by 24 cm. Unpaginated, 10 leaves, plus wraps. Seven films get a two page treatment; six, only a single page. Alliance Cinématographique Européenne was a distributor for films from several production companies, but it would appear, at the time of this publication, principally UFA, the largest German film company, although the publication does promote a French cast movie, "L'Entraineuse", which starred Michele Morgan, who was to soon head to Hollywood where she appeared in several American films during the Second World War. Other movies include "Hymne a la Neige", a Luis Trenker Alpine adventure; "Noix de Coco", with Raimu; "La Nuit Decisive" with Pola Negri; "La Belle Hongroise" with Swedish actress and alleged Nazi collaborator Zarah Leander; "Hotel Sacher", about the legendary Viennese hotel which more recently formed the basis for a German language mini-series. The graphics are rendered in orange and black and white, with photos mixed in with illustrations. The front cover is especially striking with a cobalt blue background and a Zodiac circle made up of a silver band and this surrounded by a wavy circle of green. Overlaying this cover is translucent wax paper with the title and company acronym printed on it. Scarce, with no institutional copied found on OCLC First Search. Condition: moderate wear.

Description
Malden, Massachusetts: Edward A. Bowen, 1910. Folio, wraps, 5 pp. Fine condition.. An unrecorded sheet about two romantic youngsters by Harry Reardon, who was apparently a local composer of comic songs active in the Brockton, Massachusetts area during this period (we find a newspaper record in newspapers of a recital at the Fidelity Lodge in Brockton in 1911). The song extols the virtue of a girl named (Tom-Boy) Sue, and laments “Remember when folks called you ‘tomboy’ / in schooldays when I was your beau…” before becoming more straightforwardly romantic and sentimental. Edward A. Bowen operated as a small regional music publisher in Malden, Massachusetts, in the opening decades of the twentieth century, issuing locally authored popular songs, novelty numbers, and light sentimental pieces for domestic piano performance. Unlike the larger Boston and New York houses, Bowen’s imprint appears primarily on works by area composers and performers. Of interest to Massachusetts imprint completists, those interested in the tomboy archetype in popular culture, or perhaps the Johnny Cash fan in your life. Not in OCLC, with no other records appearing in sheet music collections.
