Description
New York City, 1968. 20 x 28 inches. Folded with some tears at folds, slightly wrinkled; inscribed “Sam – / You must come! / Send money / Lou Dorfsman”. Very good plus.. An invitation to the “Recooperation Baths”, which seems to be an annual get-together for Cooper Union alumni. Cooper Union was founded in 1859 by business magnate Peter Cooper to offer a tuition-free education in practical areas such as architectural drawing, shorthand, and the like. No longer free, Cooper Union now consists of three schools: art, architecture, and engineering. Graphic designer Lou Dorfsman (1918–2008), who inscribed this poster with a message for “Sam”, graduated from Cooper Union in 1939. He would serve on its board of directors and, as this poster states, on its Alumni Committee. More famously, Dorfsman was the art director and later creative director at CBS, where he designed not just programming advertisements but also sets and the CBS headquarters’ interior. The poster promises alumni “an evening of gayety, jollity, merriment, entertainment, swimming, dancing, drinking, dining” at the Woolworth Building in Tribeca – probably at its private basement swimming pool.

Description
Jackson: University Press of Mississippi, 2013. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/very good. First Edition. Hardcover. Signed by William F. Winter in ink to title page. 9 1/4" X 6 1/4". viii, 338pp. Mild wear to unclipped dust jacket with rubbing and creasing to covers and edges. Bound in black cloth over boards with spine lettered in gilt. Pages are clean and unmarked. Binding is firm and sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: For more than six decades, William F. Winter (b. 1923) has been one of the most recognizable public figures in Mississippi. His political career spanned the 1940s through the early 1980s, from his initial foray into Mississippi politics as James Eastland's driver during his 1942 campaign for the United States Senate, as state legislator, as state tax collector, as state treasurer, and as lieutenant governor. Winter served as governor of the state of Mississippi from 1980 to 1984. A voice of reason and compromise during the tumultuous civil rights battles, Winter represented the earliest embodiment of the white moderate politicians who emerged throughout the "New South." His leadership played a pivotal role in ushering in the New Mississippi: a society that moved beyond the racial caste system that had defined life in the state for almost a century after emancipation. In many ways, Winter's story over nine decades is also the story of the evolution of Mississippi in the second half of the twentieth century. Winter has remained active in public life since retiring from politics following an unsuccessful U.S. Senate campaign against Thad Cochran in 1984. During the last twenty-five years, Winter has worked with a variety of organizations to champion issues that have always been central to his vision of how to advance the interests of his native state and the South as a whole. Improving the economy, upgrading the educational system, and facilitating racial reconciliation are goals he has pursued with passion. The first biography of this pivotal figure, William F. Winter and the New Mississippi traces his life and influences from boyhood days in Grenada County, through his service in World War II, and through his long career serving Mississippi.(Publisher).
