Description
New York: E. G. Arnold and Weldon Giniger, 1934. First Edition. Very good. Issue No. VI - Sept. Oct. Nov. 1934; 11 x 8 1/2; pp. [4], i, 1-64 - mimeographed text to rectos only; green wraps, printed and ruled in black; illustrated with frontis plate by Will Eisner; fading to margins and small nicks and cuts to edges of wraps; interior clean; in very good condition. An early issue of this obscure, short-lived, literary journal, it featured stories, poems, and miscellaneous works by both known and yet-undiscovered authors, including Sara H. Carleton, Olga Cabral, Fay Slobod, and others. Arguably, the best feature of the magazine was a very-early illustration by Will Eisner, titled: "The Man Who Loved a Horse," when he was just 17-years-old. William Erwin Eisner (1917 - 2005), one of the pioneers of American comic books and the first to coin the term "graphic novel," published his first cartoons and drawings in his high school paper The Clinton News and he also created stage designs for his school plays (he would never graduate from the said high school). After working a night shift as a copywriter and letterer at the New York American newspaper, he would publish his first professional comics - "Harry Karry" (1936), "Captain Scott Dalton" (1936), and "The Flame."

Description
Los Angeles, CA: Comisión Femenil Mexicana Nacional, Inc, 1974. Very good +. Corner-stapled packet of six 11" x 8½" leaves. Very good plus: minimal edge wear; a few faint creases. This is a rare proposal for a project aimed at uplifting and supporting Chicana high school students in Los Angeles. It was implemented by the Chicana Service Action Center (CSAC), a venture of the Comisión Femenil Mexicana Nacional (CFMN), the first national Chicana feminist organization in the United States. CFMN was formed during the 1970 Mexican American National Issues Conference in Sacramento, California. Founding president Francisca Flores was already known for her Chicana activist work; she had organized a group for female veterans of the Mexican Revolution in the 1920s, co-founded the Mexican American Political Association in 1960 and ran a feminist magazine called Regeneración. Believing the Chicano Movement to not properly address the rights and needs of women, she initiated CFMN to help women attain positions of leadership, spread information about Chicana achievements and promote programs to benefit women and their families. In 1972 CFMN developed CSAC to train low-income women for jobs in Los Angeles, and at the National Women's Conference in 1977 they were recognized as "the leading Latina organization in the United States." While some of their ventures continue to this day, the group itself disbanded in 1995. This packet is printed on CFMN stationery (listing Francisca Flores as director) and proposes a project targeting tenth grade students at L.A.'s Garfield High. The stated goal was to enable the girls to "demonstrate a positive attitude toward oneself, home, community and/or school" via "individual counseling," group discussions, guest speakers, a "field trip" to work with disadvantaged youth and "remedial aid in language arts." It holds the proposed budget to facilitate collegeaged "work-study tutors" as well as details on intended methods and a photocopied calendar with the handwritten first month's schedule. Not recorded in OCLC. UC Santa Barbara holds a collection of CFMN records but it is unclear whether this item is represented.
