Title: [Photo Album]: Jewish Man's Family and Life Photo Album in New York and Virginia After WWII to Vietnam
Seller: Between the Covers- Rare Books, Inc. ABAA (United States)
Condition: Near Fine
Description: Beacon, New York / New York City / Virginia, 1965. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Oblong octavo measuring 10" x 7". String bound red leather boards. Contains 118 gelatin silver black and white or sepia toned photographs measuring between 3.5" x 2.5" and 8.5" x 6" with captions. Pages chipped with rubbing and light wear to the board ends, near fine with fine photographs. A Jewish man's family photo album from after World War II during 1947 through to 1965 in New York. The album focuses around to brothers Benny and Harry Pilossoph. Most of the album is during Harry's time at the University Settlement Camp in Beacon, New York. The University Settlement Camp offered urban life kids with the opportunity to experience nature and a sense of community building, which in this album is obvious to see as Harry is often pictured around the same group of friends throughout his time at the camp for multiple years. Some of the plays done at the Settlement Camp include "If Men Played Cards as Women do," "Round the Town," and "Street Scene". The playbooks for the latter two are included in the album in which Harry helped with the props for the show. In photographs of the cast and crew, Harry can be seen holding the prop sign for one of the shows surrounded by the other members in the show. The show "Street Scene" premiered the year the Settlement Camp did it for a play as well, marking one of the first school renditions of the stage play. A section of the album also shows portrait pictures of the kids that Harry spent time with at the camp graduating from Junior Highschool. There are a few photographs of when the brother's were younger, one of which is a real photograph postcard of the boys and their grandmother and another is of Benny in his religious attire with the Torah. After Harry graduated he went to serve in the army for the Vietnam War with his brother. The photos of Benny are of him graduating junior high and working as a lifeguard down in Miami Beach, Florida before returning to be with his brother at Camp Pickett in Virginia as soldiers training for the Vietnam War. Their mother is seen in some of the photographs visiting them. Fort Pickett is a Virginia Army National Guard installation, located near the town of Blackstone, Virginia. The military photographs show the uniforms and grounds the soldiers lived on. There are a lot of fun photographs of Harry and Benny with their friends, one of which shows them all stuff onto a truck with people hanging off the side of it. There are other photographs of Harry's life outside of the military in which he is seen with a young woman, named Lillie, spending time with her at Bear Mountain, central park, and visiting the Settlement Camp in New York State. In one photograph, Lillie holds Harry up with her arms as she's laying on the ground and Harry is in a handstand position. A young man's family photo album from New York during his time at a University Settlement Camp and later in his life in Virginia training in the army during the Vietnam War, 1947 through to 1965.
