Description
124 Cheapside, London: F. Passmore, 1870. Very good. Light spotting. One flap missing, sometime torn away and now revealing "Modesty".. A finely produced 8vo valentine made from lithographed lace paper, with hidden messages behind tiny delicate flaps. Titled "The requisite Contents of a Lady's Dressing Case", each flap has the name of a different item in a lady's toilette-- e.g. Cold Cream, Lip Salve, a Mirror, and a Wash to Prevent Wrinkles. Also has some comical items, such as "A Cure for the Heart Ache" and "Poison to be used with Caution" (The later lifts up to reveal "Love", the former lifts up to reveal "Matrimony"). Some of the other hidden messages include "Religion", "Attention", "Reflection", "Sensibility", "Purity", and "Truth". Note the implied gender roles at play here. In total there are twenty hidden messages, with one larger hidden message under a flap reading "The Casket" which lifts to reveal the largest message, "VIRTUE". Bifolium (4.75" by 7"), with pink decorated paper underneath lace paper to give color. Inside blank.

Very good.
Description
[Hollywood]: Warner Brothers, 1966. Very good.. Original vinyl record of radio spot advertisements for CHAMBER OF HORRORS, a TV movie that was spiced up for the big screen with additional gore and violence and a marketing campaign focusing on two technical "innovations" - the "Fear Flasher" and the "Horror Horn," both designed to warn the audience of impending violence. Billed as "The year's most startling entertainment innovation!", it nevertheless appears this gimmick never enjoyed widespread (or even another) use, but is an interesting example of the methods studios used to promote their films, particularly "B" movies, in the post-studio era. The LP includes four versions of the film's radio spots, all melodramatically touting the movie's supposed innovations. Unusual and ephemeral. 10'' x 10'' (sleeve). Single-side 10" 33-RPM vinyl LP record with orange label in (original?) brown paper sleeve. Sleeve edge-worn with old price penned to one side. Plays cleanly. Also includes 4 pages of mechanically reproduced script, 8.5" x 11" approx. printed recto only stapled at top left corner. Folded through center, with some light edge-wear and creasing.

Kohala, Hawaii: April 27 and 28, 1940. Softcover. Printed silk; approx. 2" x 6"; two "First Prize" blue ribbons lettered in gilt, five "Second Prize" red ribbons lettered in black, twenty-five "Honorable Mention" yellow ribbons lettered in red; a few with light fraying to tips and creases; all bright and clean; in about near fine condition. An interesting group of ephemeral survivors from what appears to has been a pre-WWII annual event in Kohala. Though research has not revealed much information, the ribbons were most probably awarded for displays of agricultural and industrial products as well as local art.
