Description
[Columbia, SC?, 1868. Carte-de-visite, mounted on card stock, 2.5" x 4". Composite photographs of white and black members of South Carolina's Reconstruction legislature. Verso identifies each legislator. Very Good plus. "Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1868, by J.C. Gibbes, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of South Carolina." Reconstruction gave South Carolina freedmen the vote. Carolina's blacks far outnumbered the whites; their votes established a new State Constitution in 1868, which called for elections that year. Readmitted to the Union on June 25, 1868, South Carolina was the only State Legislature with a black majority in its lower house. This image was "[c]reated to frighten the white population" [Princeton's online discussion of the print]. At the center of the picture are Lieut. Gov. Boozer and Franklin J. Moses, Jr., Adjutant and Inspector General, both white, surrounded by mostly black men. Around Boozer's head are the words: "President Lieut. Gov. Boozer, 40 Acres and a Mule..." Around Moses' head appears: "Judas Moses who raised the Confederate Flag at Fort Sumter." The faces surrounding Boozer and Moses include African-American men such as Joseph Rainey, born into slavery and the first African-American to serve in the United States House of Representatives; Jonathan J. Wright, South Carolina's first African-American attorney and later Associate Justice of the South Carolina Supreme Court; Henry E. Hayne, the first African-American student at the University of South Carolina and later Secretary of the State; and numerous delegates to the 1868 South Carolina convention. On the verso are printed the surnames and location of each of the sixty-two members shown, including: Barton, Boozer, Boston, Bozeman, Brodie, Cain, Carmand, Chesnut, Cook, Demars, Dickson, Duncan, Dusenberry, Farr, Gardner, Harris, Hayes, Hayne, Henderson, Howell, Hoyt, Hudson, Hyde, Jackson, James, Jillson, Johnston, Lee, Lomax, Martin, Maxwell, Mayes, McDaniel, McKinlay, Meade, Mickery, Miller, Miteford, Mobley, Moses, Nash, Nuckles, Perrin, Pettengill, Rainey, Randolph, Rivers, Sanders, Shrewsbury, Simonds, Smith, Smythe, Swails, Thomas, Thompson, Tomlinson, Webb, White, Wilder, Williams, Wimbush, and Wright.

Np. No binding. Very Good+. Np, [ca. 1950s-1960s]. Set of fourteen vintage original 8 x 10" (20 x 25 cm) and 7 x 9" (18 x 23 cm) black-and-white photos. Some have date stamps and printed text on verso, one with printing notations in margin, overall very good+. American gospel singer Mahalia Jackson (1911-1972) is widely considered one of the most influential vocalists of the 20th century. With a career spanning 40 years, Jackson was integral to the development and spread of gospel blues in Black churches throughout the U.S. During a time when racial segregation was pervasive in American society, she met considerable and unexpected success in a recording career, selling an estimated 22 million records and performing in front of integrated and secular audiences in concert halls around the world, making her one of the best-selling gospel music artists. (Wikipedia) One photo shows Jackson with Sammy Davis Jr. waiting to perform at the 1963 March On Washington. A few photos document her work in film and television. The photo of her next to a microphone is at a Carnegie Hall concert to benefit the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee.

Twentieth Century Fox. No binding. Fine. [Los Angeles]: Twentieth Century Fox, [1944]. Vintage original 10 x 8" (25 x 20 cm.) black-and-white print still photo, fine. A portrait of the distinguished African American actor. He was discovered by Orson Welles, who cast him in his famous WPA "Voodoo Macbeth" and subsequently cast Lee in the lead role of Bigger Thomas in the successful production of Richard Wright's Native Son on Broadway. In 1945, he appeared in an acclaimed production on Broadway as Caliban in Shakespeare's The Tempest. His career and life were cut short at the age of 45 in 1952. Lee was an early influence on physician and human rights activist H. Jack Geiger. They met in 1940 when Geiger, a 14-year-old middle-class Jewish runaway, was backstage at a Broadway production of Native Son. Lee agreed to take Geiger in when he showed up at his door in Harlem asking for a place to stay. With the consent of his parents, Geiger stayed with Lee for over a year. Lee took on the role of surrogate father and introduced Geiger to Langston Hughes, Billy Strayhorn, Richard Wright, and Adam Clayton Powell. Geiger eventually became a journalist, then a doctor who co-founded the first community health center in the United States, Columbia Point Health Center in Dorchester, Massachusetts. He became a founder of Physicians for Social Responsibility and Physicians for Human Rights, and established community health centers in Mississippi and South Africa. Geiger says he would never have moved so deeply in these worlds so quickly if not for his experiences with Canada Lee. By the late 1940s, the rising tide of anti-communism had made many of Lee's earlier contacts politically dangerous. In 1949, the trade journal Variety stated that under no circumstance was Lee to be used in American Tobacco's televised production of a radio play he had recently starred in because he was "too controversial". The same year, the FBI offered to clear Lee's name if he would publicly call Paul Robeson a communist. Lee refused and responded by saying, "All you're trying to do is split my race." According to newspaper columnist Walter Winchell, Lee stated that he intended to come out and "publicly blast Paul Robeson." However, the fact that the friendship between the two actors remained until Lee's death suggests that Robeson put no faith in Winchell's claim. At the height of the Hollywood blacklist, Lee managed to find work in 1950 as the star of the British film Cry, the Beloved Country, for which both he and Sidney Poitier were smuggled into South Africa as indentured servants in order to play their roles as African ministers. During filming, Lee had his first heart attack, and he never fully recovered his health. The film's message of universal brotherhood stands as Lee's final work towards this aim. This portrait is of Lee in the role of Joe Spencer in Alfred Hitchcock's film Lifeboat, in which the survivors of a U-boat torpedoing their ship attempt to survive in a lifeboat.

Description
London: George G. Harrap & Company, 1923. Very good.. First edition of this gorgeous outlier of the Golden Age of Illustration, a fully realized fantasy of interplanetary travel written and illustrated by South African architect William Timlin. An Old Man fulfills the dream of his youth, "sailing by way of the Moon, and the more friendly planets" on his way to the Shining City of Mars. The ship of the title, designed by the aged engineer but built by fairies, captures the tale's balance of science fiction and fantasy: one iconic plate depicts the ship, whose design hearkens back to the Age of Discovery, outrunning the magnificent flare of a meteor. The only work authored by Timlin, THE SHIP THAT SAILED TO MARS secured his reputation alongside prolific professional illustrators like Arthur Rackham, Edmund Dulac, and Kay Nielsen. A beautiful copy of a strikingly original space odyssey. Quarto. 12'' x 9''. Original quarter vellum, grey printed paper boards, spine lettered and ornamented in gilt. 96 leaves of heavy grey paper, containing 48 mounted pages of printed lettering in Timlin's hand and 48 mounted full color illustrations. Early New York bookseller ticket on rear pastedown. Spine slightly darkened, some tip and edge wear, faint rubbing to boards. Interior clean.

Wien: Universal-Edition [PN U.E. 8685], 1927. Small folio. Full dark green cloth, titling gilt to spine. 2ff. (title, performance notes), 5-111, [1] (blank) pp. Binding slightly rubbed. Minor browning to edges. First Edition. Rufer (E) pp. 50-51. GA B/23/2, pp. 129. "In a similar manner to several movements from the earlier piano compositions opp. 23 and 25 as well as the Serenade, op. 24, the Suite is dominated by dance rhythms, with the first two movements in particular recalling the dance music of the 1920s. The unusual scoring with its affinity to the "reeds" section of a swing band - three clarinets, string trio and piano - contributes to this feeling. However, the particular attraction of the Suite originates from the tension in the relationship between its cheerful character and the rigidity of its musical structure. The work is based on a twelve-tone row whose final group of four tones is a transposed retrograde form of the first group of four tones, while two groups of two tones are arranged as a mirror image in the middle group. The hexachords solely consist of semitones and minor thirds; the first hexachord comprises the triads of E flat major and B minor, the second hexachord comprises the triads of C sharp major and A minor. Schönberg also worked other "degrees of relationships" into the row's structure which demonstrates supreme artistry in the handling of a - at the time new - method of composition." © Arnold Schönberg Center.

Description
México: Secretaria de Educación Publica; Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes, 1956. (Some chipping at spine and a 3 inch piece missing from rear wrapper; light wear to covers; o/w vg. b/w plates, ports., wrps. The bibliography for the early periodical publications of the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura (INBA). Briefly the following list puts in chronological order those publications to give context to their importance. Mexico en el Arte was the first magazine of the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature (INBA) and was published in two epochs: 1948-1952 and then again from 1983-1990. During the time bewteen the two epochs the following were the main publications of INBA: Letras Patrias (mainly literary): 1954-1959 Bellas Artes: 1956 -1957. 7 issues appeared over two years (bimonthly) Cuadernos de Arte: Published from 1960-1964 (53 issues published). Revista de Bellas Artes began in 1960 that added the Nueva Epoca began in 1972 and the Tercera Epoca began in 1983 when Mexico en el Arte resumed. In 1952 INBA had stopped publishing the magazine México en el Arte, the first printed medium dedicated to the dissemination of its activites. In 1955 the possibility of publishing a new magazine that covered the void generated by the disapearance of Mexico en el Arte was considered. Thus in 1956 the first number of Bellas Artes appeared as a new dissemination body of Mexican artistic manifestations. "Bellas Artes" is the last editorial project coordinated by for INBA by the Spanish plastic and typographical arts Miguel Prieto (1907-1956, exiled in Mexico since 1939). Poet Jorge Ramón Juárez was the editor and director of the Institute. The magazine had a brief life but reported the most relevant events in art, theater and literature during the years 1956-1957. SCARCE. Contents: No. 2 1956: Existe el auge del teatro en México? -- El congreso de musica -- Ignacio López Tarso -- Cuales son las Bellas Artes? -- José María Velasco -- Carlos Lvarado Lang -- El grabado: perfecta expresión de México -- Histroia de la Litorgrafía en México -- Cerámica popular mexicana -- Rosario Castellanos y la poesia.

A tiny, wordless zine, with just a short paragraph of text to front wrap verso, it was filled with stylized images of crushed vehicles and was intended to covey a sense of our own human fragility, after witnessing a ghastly crash on our commute and moving on with our lives. It was published by Tiny Splendor Press, now in Los Angeles and Berkeley, which was founded in 2012 to provide printing and publishing services to artists and poets from the US and abroad.
