Moscow: 1926. Original color lithograph poster from the collection of Alma Law. Repaired by Sasha Mosolov and mounted on a support sheet. No losses. 102 x 71.5 cm. The best and rarest of the Stenberg posters. From CineMaterial: The Stenberg brothers Vladimir 1899-1982 and Georgii 1900-1933 were Soviet artists and designers. While born in Moscow both remained Swedish citizens until 1933 because their father was a Swede. The innovative visual aspects of their posters included a distortion of perspective elements from Dada photomontage an exaggerated scale a sense of movement and a dynamic use of color and typography. Their artwork was frequently based on stills from the films. Radical even today the posters by the brothers working together were realized within the nine-year period from 1924 to 1933 the year Georgii died at age 33. His motorcycle hit a truck a few months after the brothers had become Russian citizens. Vladimir continued to work on film posters and organized the decorations of Moscow's Red Square for the May Day celebration of 1947. _______________ Directed by Ivane Perestiani Maria Shirai Maria Shirai .

Shaftsbury and Arlington VT 1949. 4to. Five letters 16 pages total approximately 2500 words in part: "You may be sure that i will learn a great deal from studying your nymph patters. One thing you've done which like many good inventions causes us all to wonder why the hell we didn't think of it is to use the hackle on the belly and just trim off the barbules on each side. That really is an invention. It's so much more realistic than the clumsy job I've done with wrapped hackle which never seems to give that effect . in fact the whole nymph looks practically indestructible. I'll never use these to fish with as I'm too scared I'll hang them in a bush . you'll be interested to know that yesterday was some day on the Battenkill. Our first good hatch is on God bless it and the good fish beginning to feed . when the hatch actualy got going I took 7 or 8 more on dries all good ones. God what a time. The first good day of the year"; another letter contains detailed dressing patterns for six of Atherton's dry flies covering three pages and all of the letters deal wholly with fly tying and fishing matters. "In connection with the work of Preston Jennings Atherton too was intrigued by the effects of light and color on the behavior of trout. A friend of Edward Hewitt he sought out through experimentation the various cause and effect of such properties on trout. His findings were published in his classic book 'The Fly and the Fish' New York: Macmillan 1951; a limited edition was published by the Anglers' Club" classictrout.com. At the time of this correspondence Collins a radio producer long involved with Kate Smith's Radio Hour had bought a part interest in the E.F. Payne Rod Company and was pursuing his interests in fly-tying and trout fishing. Ernest Schwiebert deals at length with the relationship between Atherton and Collins and their fly-tying theories in his book "Nymphs" Guilford CT 2007; pages 88-91 of volume one. Very good.

Your own and your brother's wedding at once will not only doubly crown the day but give promise to multiplied successive anniversaries. unknown
