[FILM & CINEMA -- MOVIE PROMOTIONS & ADVERTISING STUNTS]. [WARNER BROS. STUDIOS THEATRE CHAIN].
An eye-catching souvenir photo album/scrapbook capturing the over-the-top stunts promotions displays and lobby antics promoting pre-Code movies at The Strand in Oshkosh WI as well as the Smoot and Lincoln Theatre’s in Parkersburg West Virginia during the opening years of the Great Depression. About half is devoted to Mae West’s famed titillating “I’m no Angel†in which she starred with Cary Grant as the ex-circus siren queen; with snippets and souvenirs devoted to the 1930 “Sea Wolf†the 1931 Little Caesar Dracula with Bela Lugosi and Dirigible with Fay Wray and significant space to the 1932 Joe E. Brown’s “Fireman Save my Child!â€.
Hollywood CA & New York NY; Oshkosh WI & Parkersburg WV: The Strand Theatre Smoot Theatre Lincoln Theatre & Warner Bros. 1930-1934. Oblong folio. 14.5 x 11.5 in. 100 pp unpaginated. two different papers many preserved in archival mylar sleeves. With 90 original silver gelatin photographs either mounted or loose and inserted into sleeves sized from 2 x 2 in. up to 8 x 10 in. most sized approx. 5 x 7 in. many w/ photographer’s imprints 71 pieces of mounted ephemera including promotional cards souvenir promotional items such as napkins studio advertising mimeograph typescript marketing scripts lobby cards newspaper clippings and more. All leaves bound w/ brass screw posts at gutter margin many preserved in archival mylar sleeves some leaves w/ chipping & tears at fore=-edges offset tears and or reside on versos of a few photos some scuffing old glue markings cropping to some leaves still a VG artifact preserved as album. This exceptional original Warner Bros. Studio marketing photo album/scrapbook chronicles the movie industry’s system of engaging the movie-going public during the Great Depression in a form of interactive promotional live theatre to immerse them in the cinematic experience. Featuring physical props displays special lighting costumed extras studio scripts featuring a myriad of promotions the Warner Bros. Studios theatre group was able to enhance and pull in far more movie-goers and set the foundation for their marketing system in the coming decades. By using their opulent and fabulous 1920’s era created movie palaces these images capture the pre-Code sexualized Mae West in slinky costumes emblazoned on radio station cars physical stand-up showroom displays restaurant menus post-Prohibition tavern beer coasters and even pulled in local officials such as Mayor George Oaks of Oshkosh WI. Also featured here are photos and flyers for the giveaway cars tie-ins with the Oshkosh State Teachers College football team and nearby department store window displays which significantly expanded the visual and immersive experience.Of particular interest is the included and very detailed 117 step campaign script for Mae West’s iconic “I’m No Angel†featuring the titillating star as Tira the circus beauty who manages to always be mistress of the situation whether in the cage with wild beasts her boudoir filled with admirers to be bedded or even charming and seducing the judge at the end of the film with only a wiggle. The pre-Code campaign encourages the Warner Bros. Studio theatre’s to include a “Try your figure†display panel where young women would measure themselves against the busty silhouette and those that matched closest to the scantily gowned West would receive free tickets. Another stunt was setting up a “Mae West Voice Test†using a dictaphone in the lobby with a “pretty girl attendant†set up in charge to ask potential women movie-goer attendees to utter “Come up and see me sometime†and free tickets were awarded for the best Mae West imitations. Other movies featured at the Strand in Oshkosh or the Smoot & Lincoln Theatre’s in Parkersburg WV depicted here with promotions souvenirs and photographs include: “The Sea Wolf†based on Jack London’s book and which starred Milton Sills Jane Keithley and Raymond Hacket released just 1 week after Sills’ death and features stunts with potential young movie-goers to bring their Rin Tin Tin like dogs as well as airplane stunts and lobby card; or elaborate window displays and automobile floats mocked up as dirigibles and costumed extras for Frank Capra’s “Dirigible†released in 1931 and starred Fay Wray Jack Holt Ralph Graves and Hobart Bosworth set against the drama of a competition by fixed-wing aircraft and dirigible airships to reach the South Pole. Other movies briefly archived in the group here feature “When Ladies Meet†released in 1933 starring Ann Harding Myrna Loy and Robert Montgomery or a couple mentions of the 1931 Bela Lugosi Dracula. The 1933 Gold Diggers is featured in several photos which starred Joan Blondell Aline MacMahaon Monica Bannister Joan Barclay and Connie Blackwood as out-of-work Broadway chorus girls. Also appearing here in approximately one fourth of the photo album/scrapbook is a similar campaign as that for Mae West for the 1932 “Fireman Save my Child!†with the wildly popular comedian Joe E. Brown starring as Joe Grant inventor fireman and baseball player offered to play in the big leagues in the film but earning more money from his inventions Again the script advises engaging the local fire department to put on stunts include the supplied advertising on their fire engines and even encourages the use of a large animatronic mechanical head of Brown in a fireman’s hat in the lobby. The movie was actually a natural fit for Joe Brown who had launched his physical comedy during the 1893 Depression by making faces at the firemen on passing coal-burning trains so they would throw coal at him to collect and sell and later worked as circus acrobat and newsboy and was a lifelong baseball fan. From 1930-July 1934 the Hollywood studios were largely self-regulating their content with continued threats by outside groups to “clean†up their movies and somehow balance the puritanical group sensibilities against the ever growing demands by audiences for movies that were daring edgy naughty and even sexualized often depicting spousal abuse sexual bondage marital infidelity free love with stars such as Mae West Norma Shearer Kay Francis Dorothy Mackaill Nancy Carroll and Constance Bennett typically depicted half-clad or in bed. At the time the movie studios and theatre’s were attempting to recoup the massive investments in transitioning to sound films and market the new technology by cultivating a sophisticated campaign system often hiring Broadway writers directors and actors to travel around and oversee their promotions productions. See: John Farr How Movies Got Us Through the Great Depression Best Movies 2024; David P. Hayes Production Code of the Motion Picture Industry 2009; Mae West Reveals Herself as a Circus Queen in “I’m No Angel†at the Paramount New York Times Oct. 14 1933.

These include stained glass window backdrops for the elaborate Book Window and Stationery Window for Easter 1921 the 1920 book release of Angela Ashford’s stories “Daisy Ashford†including stories dictated by the young precocious 8-year-old; an architectural window in April 1921 featuring iconic Southern California Arts & Crafts architectural titles such as “California Gardens†and Wilson’s “California Bungalows.†Also included are the elaborate diorama featuring thatched palm-tree hut and display additions for Fredrich O’Brien’s “Mystic Isles of the South Seas;†Elk’s Lodge stationery & books in purple & white Humpty Dumpty & House that Jack Built in celebration of the 1921 Children’s book Week E.

Fowler Brothers bookstore was at one time the oldest family-owned bookstore in Los Angeles operating from 1888 to 1994 and finally closed due to pressures from large chain stores and subway construction in the 1990’s. Originally founded as a religious and Sunday School supply house it eventually survived six different downtown locations and was originally founded by brothers J.W. Fowler and Robert A. Fowler of South Pasadena. Siegfried Lindstrom grandson of J.W. Fowler was still running the shop when it closed. Sloan 1899-1993 would leave Los Angeles before 1930 and moved to San Francisco where he became longtime window dresser and display artist for the iconic Nathan Dohrmann Department Store noted for their stock of china glassware lamps and art goods.

[THEATRE -- RACISM & MINSTREL SHOWS]. ERICKSON, CL. (Manager). C. L.
The show that is different coming soon! J.W. Johnson’s Old Reliable Virginia Minstrels. . . horizontal bars contortion acts aerial acts wire walkers jugglers comedians greatest dancers that ever lived musical comedy all the way from Old Virginia. Dual-sided advertising broadside.
Erie PA: Erie Litho & Printing Co. March 17 1923. Large double atlas folio dual-sided broadside printed on newsprint sized 9.25 x 42 in. photo & woodcut engraving illustrations recto & verso toning to paper some chipping & edgewear paper repairs to closed tears still a G- copy. First edition thus of this advertising broadside for Erickson’s “J.W. Johnson’s Old Reliable Virginia Minstrels World’s best colored show. . . “ which touts their supposed 15 year history and appear to have either been reformed from the “Alabama Minstrels†show which played throughout the West and Midwest from 1905-1914 or simply taken over some of their acts. The contortionist fire king Hi Henry Hunt who appears in this broadside regularly performed with the “Alabama Minstrels†from 1905-1913. The silver voiced tenor A.J. McFarland and Grace Arniot Royal Entertainer depicted on the broadside also appear to have been African-American rather than black face performers. The name appears to have been drawn from the 19th-Century original “Virginia Minstrels†or the “Melodious Ethiopian Band†which featured Billy Whitlokc Dick Pelham Frank Brower and Dan Emmett performing in New York’s Bowery Amphitheater in 1843 and launched the minstrelsy form of entertainment. Emmett is perhaps best remembered as the author of “Dixie†which ironically would become the Confederate States unofficial anthem.

Pitched as a way to motivate organization membership advertise to the community and helping solve the “juvenile delinquency problems in every town by giving the youngsters something to do†Empire organized community entertainment such as Uncle Ezry’s Hayloft Jamboree. They fielded reps in every territory provided sets scripts entertainers directors seed money and advertising and would use the local talent to augment post-World War II America’s enthusiasm for country music. They typically targeted smaller towns and supposedly were generating from $ 500.00-$ 1400.00 per production in 1949. The typescript sheets by Mr. Cole show that although his quotas for the July 1945-1946 year were $ 500000 he only succeeded in contracting 61 shows in Texas Southern and Midwest towns which actually generated about $ 175000 of which Empire would have received half.

[FASHION DESIGN -- THEATRE].
A well-executed group of 12 original fashion designs of actresses for a theatrical production of an unnamed Civil War historical drama featuring several different costumes many preserving their fabric samples.
Pasadena CA: n.p. ca. 1960. Folio. 14.5 x 20 in. Twelve original gouache paintings on thick artist’s board 10 of them either w/ typed or manuscript labels 1 entitled “Garden Party†written in manuscript at upper fore-edge 8 preserving their cloth fabric swatch samples some w/ designer’s notes trimmings etc. All are preserved in a gray linen clamshell case minor edgewear rubbing wear to corners still a well-preserved fine set of paintings. This nicely executed set of fashion designs were apparently created for a Civil War theatre production in Southern California around 1960 with characters named Florence Bagshot Mrs. Ludley Bagshot Agatha Mrs. W.D.P.S. and Mrs. Forbes. The designs primarily focused on the women characters including one of a nurse standing in costume in gray striped dress apron and cap with Confederate cavalry trooper in kepi astride his horse and hatless officer with sash standing in the background. Many of the designs reflect the colour palate of the early 1960’s with avocado green vivid blues solid brown earth tones and bright nearly neon orange gauze fabrics in the renderings and samples which would not have been common in those combinations during the Civil War era. Still most of the dress designs incorporate the hoop skirts of the period often with crinoline and/or crinoline cage hoop skirts and high collars with ties and ribbons at the neck and trim patterns typical of the period. The design for Florence Bagshot’s bedroom wear incorporates elements of Mid 20th-Century design and sensibilities rather than the more common chemise and sturdy cotton for the 1860’s. The Confederate Nurse design was painted on “Brownie Board Cold Pressed Duncan Vail Co. Los Angeles†which appears in California art supply advertising from about 1960-1963. We were unable to identify the production after an extensive search through contemporary theatre production trade magazines newspapers and other industry publications. n.p., hardcover
