BROOKS George S. 1895 ?
Typed Letter Signed / Inscribed Photograph Signed
American editor author and playwright well known for his many "Saturday Evening Post" appearances. TLS 1p 8�" X 11" Groton NY 1956 October 5. Addressed to George Gianetti. Very good. Bit of wear; minor tape stains on verso. Delightful note to an admirer: "While I hope you live as long as I have and longer I hope you won't get as beat-up looking and feeling. There must be some way of avoiding it if you begin young. some 20 years ago a magazine editor friend of mine asked me for a photo to run with some advertising. I sent him the best I had. Then he wrote back. asking me if I didn't have one with hair on. Since I was bald before I ever met him I decided to really surprise him. So I went to a photographer and had a picture made with hair on my head. Around the Saturday Evening Post editorial rooms this was considered rather funny. here is one of them. Like the girl who wasn't named Miss America I wish I were better looking." Bold full signature. Accompanied by the aforementioned photograph: IPS 10" X 8" n.p. n.y. Very good. Absolutely delightful closeup of a very bald Brooks in pullover sweater and tie at the right facing left and looking into a small wall mirror which faces the photo's viewer -- in which Brooks' reflection WITH A FULL HEAD OF HAIR gazes out! A superb example of dark room trickery. In a light area of his sweater at the photo's lower right he boldly inscribes and signs in black ink: "For / George Gianetti / with my best wishes / Geo S Brooks." The most fun and unusual signed photograph we've ever handled -- and we've handled a great many. unknown

BROOKS John 1752 1825
Partly-Printed Document Signed
At the age of 23 this young militia officer joined the Minutemen on April 19 1775 and led the Reading Massachusetts troops in the Battle of Lexington and Concord; he served under General Washington in the 1776 campaign in New York and New Jersey participating in the Siege of Fort Stanwix in 1777 and the Second Battle of Saratoga; later a physician he also fought in the War of 1812 and in 1816 was elected the 11th governor of Massachusetts serving until 1823. Partly-printed DS 1p 15 3/4" X 9 3/4" Boston Massachusetts 16 September 1820. Good plus. Lightly age toned a bit more so about the edges with weakened original folds expertly archivally strengthened on verso thus tight and fairly attractive. Under the large printed headline "His Excellency / JOHN BROOKS / Governor and Commander in Chief / of the / Commonwealth of Massachusetts" this largely-printed text records that Nathan Dwelly Jr. is elected an ensign in a rifle company "annexed to the second Regiment in the first Brigade and fifth Division of the Militia of this Commonwealth." At left is a large 2 3/4" flute-edged blind-embossed state seal and beneath this Brooks signs huge and bold in brown ink. Below the boilerplate text Alden Bradford 1765-1843 signs as Secretary of the Commonwealth. Partly-printed docket on verso. A nice example lightly aged as these usually are but quite handsome and displayable nonetheless. unknown

Mourir dans l'amour.
français In-8 de 205 pp.; broché de l'éditeur. Bel envoi autographe signé de l'auteure en marge du faux-titre.

|
Brossard, Chandler, American novelist, writer, editor, and teacher (1922-1993).
5 autograph letters signed and 6 typescript letters signed. [New York, ca. 1953].
4to and 8vo. Together 10½ pp. on 3 bifolia and 8 single sheets. The ALS in pen and pencil. With typescript envelope. Amicable letters to the French artist and writer Boris Vian (1920-59) about his literary career, from which he struggled to make a living, as well as family affairs and Vian's writing. - Several letters mention a piece on the Maginot Line which Vian was doing for the US magazine "Reporter", where Brossard worked as a journalist: "There is a lot of European stuff they are interested in and maybe you could do it. Namely, they are very interested in seeing a piece on the Maginot Line revisited [...] What is happening with the Line now, are people living in it, has it been dismantled, have the rats taken over, and so on. It would be a semi symbolic visit, as though you were visiting an idea about life you held as a child and found, in the adult world, that is was totally impracticable [...]". - Having left the "Reporter", he refocuses on his novels, expressing confidence that Vian's 1946 crime novel "I Spit on Your Graves" would be a huge success in the U.S.: "Forget the Maginot Line piece. I'm no longer working for the Reporter. Hope the whole thing did not upset you [...] My novel - published about 4 weeks ago - is slowly selling but will not make me any dough. Meanwhile I am trying to write a sexxy little novel under a different name - maybe Vernon Sullivan! - to make some money. My second novel ["The Bold Saboteurs", 1953] is all finished, on it I will stand or fall as a writer up to now [...] would you ask [Raymond] Queneau how he feels about the second novel [...] please send me another copy of I shall spit on your graves [...] I want to turn it over to my agent, who is the best in New York. I am positive it would sell like crazy here [...] My personal life stinks, as usual. But that is my destiny at the moment. My child, however, is very rewarding. A completely adorable beast [...]". - Hoping to score a secure job with the international broadcaster "Voice of America" funded by the U.S. Congress: "I am trying now to get a big job in the government, in the Voice of America. It would pay well, about $10,000 a year, and if they hire me they would want to send me to Europe for a couple of years. I go to Washington D.C. this week to see if my family can pull some wires in the government [and] use some influence on my behalf. It is too hard and too nerve wracking to try to make a full time living as a writer or an editor [...]". - About his financial situation and literary productivity: "I have a new novel coming out in the spring [...] It was just sold to the reprint people [...] for $7500. This is what we're living on. I have begun a third novel, called The Double Dealers [...]" (no such novel was published; Brossard's third novel was titled "All Passion Spent"; his fifth novel is titled "The Double View"). - About his family's difficult situation: "Very little new with me worth talking about, lots of minor bad luck - wife broke her ankle, then we found out she was pregnant, so had to have an abortion, which took all the money I had left. Still waiting on a job. Sent Queneau the rest of my second novel, but have not heard from him [...]". - Wondering about Sartre's intentions to publish two works: "The next time you see Queneau would you ask him if Jean Paul Sartre is going to publish those 2 stories [...]". - A few tiny marginal flaws; small portion of one letter torn, not affecting text.

Both families had been exiled from Ireland in the aftermath of Tyrone's Rebellion. A second-generation "Wild Goose", he became one of Austria's most capable military leaders in the War of the Austrian Succession and the Seven Years' War. He was mortally wounded in the 1757 Battle of Prague.
