Leni Riefenstahl director screenwriter
Three photos from Olympia Schonheit im Olympischen Kampf Three original photographs from the 1938 documentary
New York: Excelsior Pictures 1938. Three vintage black and white second generation photographs from the groundbreaking 1938 film documenting the 1936 Summer Olympipcs held in Olympic Stadium in Berlin. Released in two parts "Olympia: Festival of Nations" and "Olympia: Festival of Beauty." From the archive of Maurice Bessy with his rubber stamp and light holograph annotations on the verso. <br/><br/>Based on Riefenstahl's photobook from the previous year "Schonheit im Olympischen Kampf." A rare example where a photobook and a film are equally important as both works of art and a historical document. Riefenstahl made the book and the film as propaganda for Hitler and spent a lifetime trying to live down her devotion to him but this work in particular is so powerful as to stand apart from the reasons for which it was made. Easily the most visceral and important document of The Olympics and the spirit of human physical achievement ever produced. <br/><br/>Variously sized between 3.5 x 7 inches and 5 x 6 inches. Fine condition. Excelsior Pictures unknown books

How I Won the War Original screenplay for the 1967 film John Lennon's copy
Beverly Hills CA: Petersham Pictures / United Artists 1966. Draft British script for the 1967 film. Based on the 1963 novel by Patrick Ryan. Copy likely belonging to John Lennon with lines for his character Gripweed circled or stricken exclusively in holograph ink throughout. Also included is a separate call sheet for Monday October 24 1966 mentioning Lennon and his character specifically. "How I Won the War" follows a small company of British infantry in North Africa during World War II with a heaping spoonful of stylized cinematography fourth wall breaking newsreel footage and slapstick absurdist humor. One of the first anti-war films of the late 1960s that reflected the souring public opinion of the Vietnam War and arguably director Richard Lester's first "serious" film. John Lennon's circular-rim glasses which while originally a prop for the film would be the signature frames he would wear for the rest of his life. He spent every day of production on set even when not required to be there purportedly because he enjoyed being treated as a normal person. Ringo Starr kept Lennon company during much of his time in Spain as well and Lennon wrote "Strawberry Fields Forever" while on location. Set in Europe and North Africa shot on location in Spain and Germany. Gray wrappers with a die-cut title window in the British style.
