[Music – Con Artists – Theatre – Chicago] Lander, Max; "Princess Dalla Pattra"
Tears Make My Rainbows
Chicago Illinois: Egyptian Press 1932. Folio 5 pp. Wraps torn at seam slightly musty odor good condition. An unrecorded composition by a woman who travelled through the midwest claiming to be a descendant of Cleopatra using the name Princess Dalla Pattra. The details of the princess are murky as she disappears from newspaper records after 1930 when she admitted in court to using a manager to stage a publicity stunt in St. Louis.1 In her hearing she also admitted that she had been arrested for embezzlement in San Francisco in 1920. Two years later rather inexplicably this songsheet was published in collaboration with a Max Lander who according to patent records was English. <br /> <br /> The introduction to the song reads: “Hear the desert winds shriek and the tom-toms in the distance thrilling with the weird undertone of the desert night then the calm as the Royal Egyptian Maiden sings her love song to her desert prince.†We find no record of the composition in OCLC or anywhere else or of the princess in newspapers after her 1930 court appearance with the only findable record of her continued impersonation a patent registered in 19312 and this song sheet. <br /> <br /> 1 “St. Louis Wonders if it Got a Fooling†Kirksville Daily Express and Kirksville Daily News April 6 1930.<br /> 2 “Only to be with you just for a day†Catalog of Copyright Entries Part 3: Musical Compositions Library of Congress Copyright Office 1932 22760 accessed at ​​https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_ZS5jAAAAIAAJ/page/1165/.

[Nebraska – Music History – Territory Bands] Multiple Artists
Ten Posters Advertising Nebraska Territory Bands 1930s–1960s
Nebraska and Minnesota: multiple publishers 1960. Ten posters mainly measuring approximately 14 x 21 ½ inches with some smaller. Many with slight damage and wear to edges all having been stored in tubes; bright and attractive; overall very good to excellent. Territory bands were dance bands that toured around particular regions of the US. Usually swing or big band jazz groups they mostly covered popular songs playing in smaller cities and towns that nationally touring groups would skip. Offered here is a collection of ten posters for territory bands from Nebraska dating from about the 1930s or 1940s to the 1960s. Unusually for territory bands these groups are mainly composed of white musicians and represent genres including rock ‘n’ roll and polka the latter of which was popular in Nebraska due to the state’s concentration of Czech and German immigrants.<br /> <br /> Bands in the collection include International Polka Association Hall of Fame inductee Ernie Kucera whose orchestra played from 1942 to 1995; fellow Czech polka player Adolph Urbanovsky’s Bohemian Orchestra; Don Shaw’s “Top 40†Dance Band and Entertainers which covered top 40 tracks in the 1950s; Little Joe and the Ramrods an early 1960s rock ‘n’ roll group; and the Lee Barron Orchestra. Information about many of the bands represented can be found in Barron’s 1987 book Odyssey of the Mid-Nite Flyer. multiple publishers unknown

[Seattle Artists] Cumming, William
Archive of Original Sketches and Exhibition Ads
Seattle 1970. 24 loose sketches from 6x4" to 12x11" approx. 16 smaller and 8 larger on various papers mostly torn from sketchbooks and one on a brown paper bag. Sketchbook 8x6" containing about 20 more. Several of the smaller loose sketches along with a few from the book are signed. Also included are 6 exhibition ads featuring Cumming's work 3 being broadsides of his design and 1 being a short booklet. Bit of moisture staining to upper edge of sketch book and a couple of the programs. Sketch paper toned and occasionally smudged. Generally very good. <br /> <br /> Tremendous assemblage of original sketches by William Cumming 1917-2010 of the Northwest School. Cumming was close with Morris Graves whom he met doing jobs for the WPA's Federal Art Project as well as Margaret Callahan Seattle Star and Seattle Times journalist and editor. She encouraged him to develop his own style which would become very figurative focusing on daily life and activities with use of light and shadow to create contrast. He was known for depicting people and animals with minimal facial details but with a focus on body language and posture which can be seen in these sketches. <br /> <br /> <br /> Cumming was also quite political and controversial being an outspoken Stalinist. He became a member of the Communist party in 1945 alienating him from the arts community he had become a part of. His career again took off in the late 1950s from when a few of the present sketches are dated after quitting the Communist party. This was the most productive time in his career. <br /> <br /> Cumming's works have been sold at auction as well as Northwest Galleries such as Woodside/Braseth and are held at the Seattle Art Museum Frye Art Museum Museum of Northwest Art and other institutions. . unknown

Thumbing and signs of considerable use by small and large hands covers are soiled and worn SEE IMAGES. RARE CHILDREN'S BOOK PRINTED ON LINEN THE COVERS OF WHICH FEATURE UNSETTLING RENDERINGS OF CHILDREN'S FACES. WHILE THE PRESENT PUBLICATION IS LIKELY ENGLISH WE DRAW ATTENTION TO CERTAIN SIMILARITIES WITH THE STRANGE AND WONDERFUL ILLUSTRATIONS PUBLISHED IN AMERICA BY THE IMMORTAL MCLOUGHLIN BROTHERS. <br /> <br /> We suggest that the book dates from 1880 to 1900 and was published in England based on the illustrators who contributed to it and the selections of the rhymes one of which "On the Fence" mentions London four times. The names of the illustrators include: Ernest Griset d. London 1907; E.J. Walker English active 1878-1886 and the English wood engraver Paul Jonnard 1840-1902; unidentified monograms include "LL" "HJR" and "AH" are found on others. Some of the illustrations appear to have been inspired by or copied from Kate Greenaway's great work. <br /> <br /> Not in JISC Library Hub Discover. Worldcat locates just two copies worldwide: Univ. Kansas Kearney and Univ. Minn. although claiming "5" copies exist only two are actually identified. unknown

Original Lithographed Poster: Ein Volk Hilft Sich Selbst - Winterhilfswerk des Deutschen Volkes
Berlin: Nationalsozialistiche Volkswohlfahrt 1938. Lithograph printed in black and brown on cream stock 42cm X 30cm ca.16.5" X 11.75". Folded vertically at center with marginal toning to extremities and a few small corner creases; Near Fine. Original advertising poster for the Winterhilfswerk or WHW a social relief program designed to provide food clothing coal and other items to needy German citizens during the winter months October-March. The program was instituted under the government of Heinrich Bruning in 1931 though Hitler would ultimately claim sole credit for the idea. Depending on whether an individual was single or married and how many children he or she had recipients were entitled to a weekly/monthly stipend and rations of food and coal to ensure they and their families would neither starve nor freeze. Indeed the program's motto was "None shall starve or freeze." Under Nazi rule all German citizens were required to give to the program - one of Hitler's ingenious ways of uniting the nation. Large donations to the fund were also a means of establishing ones loyalty to the Nazi Party without the commitment of joining it. <br /> <br /> The present example explains how to donate to the fund and provides a detailed chart showing exactly how much individual or family recipients could benefit from the program. An attractive survival showing the dynamics of German social welfare. [Nationalsozialistiche Volkswohlfahrt] unknown

Bunka 8 1811 26.2 x 17.9 cm. There is a preface by Bunya Shigetaka. Buff covers blindstamped with a geometric pattern of squares and octagons. Printed paper title label. Our copy of this bibliographically complex work appears to resemble most closely the copy at Ryerson 385 one of Mitchell's "B" examples. It would appear that the two volume edition Mitchell's "A" with a poetry volume is of extraordinary rarity. The KSSM only lists three examples and Mitchell lists his own and one other - a variant.<br /> <br /> What is clear in the midst of all the detail is that the impressions of this copy are fresh and beautiful. The juxtaposition of Nangaku and Bumpo designs is instructive and interesting. There is a bit of soiling and staining to the covers a very few internal spots and thumbing and a very mild internal waterstain - but overall still a pleasing copy of this uncommon and important book. unknown

This incomparable archive of photographs and original advertising art was created by Ray Whitnah his company Display Products Co. and later his son Kaye Whitnah who were innovative commercial artists and industrial designers through the Jazz Age Great Depression World War II and the post-War era. Ray Whitnah’s displays incorporated life-like scenes wax models and often inventive display apparatus and mechanical elements incorporating stunning Art Deco graphics and story telling all heavily influenced by the displays of L. Frank Baum Ernst Goldsman and Gordon Selfridge pioneering window display artists at Marshall Field in Chicago at the beginning of the 20th century. The first volume includes prize-winning letters for displays across the Midwest for the Pugh Store Co. department stores and later for Crosby Bros. Co. department stores in Topeka KS incorporating photos documents announcements and trade journals. Photographs in the second volume reveal how Whitnah created striking sales tableaux for women’s furs hosiery girdles bathing suits Hoover Vacuums Motorola heaters and kitchen ware. Of special interest are the surrealist bathing suit windows superimposed behind a reverse painted clock face featuring undersea flower & shell arrangements and large sea snail. Other images show striking windows for Kotex Sanitary products DeFildiss Perfumizer Eline’s candies and apple bars Nemo-Flex Corsettes Phoenix Hosiery and others. Volume III entitled the “Championship Class†album provides a superb overview of Whitnah’s prize-winning displays including an elaborate Chinese rugs window with Chinese mah jong players; Pyrex ware window featuring four & 20 blackbirds flying from the pie; a mechanical bathing display; toy display featuring paraffin falls imitating frozen water; an elaborate Congoleum flooring display; and his tour-de-force mechanical Nemo Corset Display featuring a large turntable revolving with women’s figures representing seven ages appearing in order within four minutes per revolution and a ribbon to pull the layered photos to recreate the effect in the album. The fourth album incorporates inventive millinery and women’s fashions in minimalist vignettes for the Crosby Bros. Department store with some incorporating Moorish or Oriental inspired designs vivid Art Deco backdrops and historiated scenes reflective of the fashions in the opening years of the Roaring 20s. The fifth volume reflects the increasing creativity and daring of Whitnah including window displays showing flying Hoover vacuums increased storytelling and elaborate displays for Christmas Radiola record players an elaborate fairy tale scene for Hickock belts Maytag washers featuring backdrop of children dancing around the Maypole and series of Santa Fe RR windows celebrating travel on the Honeymoon. Of particular interest in this album is the large elaborate Kotex Sanitary Specialties window entitled “Kotex: A “Justice†to the World†featuring a lady justice on top of a globe Kotex packaging balanced in the scales and other products displayed around the window.The sixth & seventh albums mark the 1930 shift by Ray Whitnah to establish not only his own manufacturing company for window display fixtures and apparatus but also an Automotive Displays Inc. intending to target the burgeoning window display market with automobile dealers across the country producing lithograph posters newspaper camera ready ads catalogues along with flood lights backgrounds finished products no chassis and one-lithograph signs. The company was incorporated in Delaware in 1931 with Whitnah holding 51% of the voting stock. The sixth volume shows many different devices for displaying men’s clothes wooden shirt stands adjustable clothes stands and even their introduction into the Cohn-Storthz men’s shop in St. Louis MO. The famed St. Louis Mart and Terminal Warehouse was a massive Art Deco edifice later named the Robert A. Young Federal Building and designed by Preston Bradshaw who began with McKim Mead & White. Acquired by the U.S. Army in 1941. Volumes VIII thru XIII consist primarily of original artwork and renderings by Whitnah and his Display Products Co. team for a variety of companies and encompassing a broad range of stands risers product displays and mechanical devices to create stunning advertising displays. These include ocean liner stacks for swim togs Easter bunny displays stork displays for infant apparel as well as a striking 4 foot tall hat box display store unit which holds hatboxes.

Volume IX & X include large vividly coloured Art Deco Christmas Box and North Pole holiday designs; decorations and metal filigree displays for handkerchiefs and windows; a large giraffe and a firework display unit for toys and of special interest a vivid “Bell-Hop Series’ display pieces of caricature Chinese-American and African-American display holders for Christmas wreaths.

The Horizon system also incorporated interchangeable forms to create arresting streamline floor and window displays that would enable the company to come into any department store client’s business and create an entire display system for them right down to the glue and lighting. Volume XI presents artwork of caricature cartoon and humor signs drawing from major cartoonist of the period and created exclusively for the Display Products Co. each mounted as enameled triangle and hanging from stanchions next to the Men’s Department or other Departments employing their display fixtures. Many of the original designs in the last couple volumes reflect an animated whimsey with stylized figurines cartoon-like characters some appearing to draw from Held while others from Pogo or other animators of the 1930s-1950s and many of the drawings with a decided Western inspired cowboy theme. Also appearing in these portfolios are many designs incorporating bamboo and bamboo shapes for stands displays shelving and backdrops. Many of the silver print blueprints and reproduced designs refer to the specific wood finishes on the wood carved and wooden stands created by the company.
