1964réf. 139221California: Art Theatre Guild / Eve Productions 1964. Original black-and-white program for the 1964 film printed for the Art Theatre Guild. The Art Theatre Guild ATG began in 1961 as an independent agency distributing films mostly Japanese rejected by major studios. The company operated until the 1980s with theaters in Arizona California Colorado Illinois Kentucky Massachusetts Missouri New Mexico Ohio and Tennessee. The first of Meyer's "noir" cycle 1964-1965 or "Gothic" period as Meyer puts it a series of sexploitation films shot in black-and-white powerful psycho-sexual female characters male impotence and a serious dramatic plot involving less of the "nudie" filmmaking style so prominent in the director's early films. Other films in his "Gothic" period include "Mudhoney" 1965 "Motorpsycho!" 1965 and the epic and legendary "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! " 1965. "Fanny Hill" 1964 snuck in right after "Lorna" although that film is generally left out of the "Gothic" period. "Lorna" was written by James Griffith who stars as the Preacher narrator of the film and stars Lorna Maitland as a voluptuous sexually unfulfilled newlywed. Her husband Jim Rucker works in a salt mine all day and studies all night giving Lorna too much time to herself. One day while Lorna skinny-dips in a nearby river an escaped convict Bradley rapes her in the reeds. The vile act could otherwise have been exploited perhaps comically by Meyer but here the scene acts as a catalyst for one repressed woman's sexual awakening. Lorna invites the convict into her home while her husband is gone prompting Jim's coworkers among them the underrated Hal Hopper to tease him about Lorna's infidelity. Things take a bitter fatal turn when Jim returns home to discover Lorna and her object of desire. 5.5 x 8.5 inches folded once as issued. Two horizontal creases and faint foxing else Near Fine.

1938réf. 260500Boston: Privately Printed by Geo. H. Ellis Co 1938. First edition one of only 30 copies this copy numbered in ink "Seven. Illustrated with 28 photographs on 14 plates and 5 hand-colored plates after old prints and a photograph; with folding map tipped in on rear pastedown. 1 vols. 8vo. Original dark blue grained leatherette title gilt on upper cover. A fine fresh copy. First edition one of only 30 copies this copy numbered in ink "Seven". Illustrated with 28 photographs on 14 plates and 5 hand-colored plates after old prints and a photograph; with folding map tipped in on rear pastedown. 1 vols. 8vo. In his Foreword the author states: "These sketches were written for the members of the Moisie Salmon Club. The sole purpose was to give information to them of the waters and conditions of the Moisie River and its branches above the places customarily fished by them.". The Moisie is one of a network of navigable rivers running about 110 miles northward from the St. Lawrence in eastern Quebec; old and well worn portage paths testify to the antiquity of the route along which for hundreds of years Indians have hunted and fished. For salmon and sea trout it is one of the richest areas known. It is not surprising that the Moisie Salmon Club was founded to reap the benefits of this bounty; what is surprising is that so much care attention and expense has been lavished on a book limited to only 30 copies. The text consists primarily of the author's descriptions of areas north of the more usual fishing sites based on his explorations as a sportsman with guides. In addition to five colored plates which tend to establish the romantic mood of the region there are 28 superb reproductions of sepia photographs printed on special photographic-type paper to convey both the look and the actual feel of the originals. The book's 78 pages conclude with an Index and inside the back cover is mounted a folding map of the area described. The book is rare not in Wetzel or Heller not seen by Bruns and the only copy we know of to appear at auction - a worn copy - brought $1870 at the Netz sale in New York in 1986. This copy bears the ownership signature of E.H. Rawls on the front flyleaf: pages 12 to 19 comprise Edward H. Rawls' own account of his 1929 trip to the East Branch Chute and Cran Serré of the Moisie River where he was the first to take salmon on a light rod above the falls in defiance of "the old story retold until believed by everyone that salmon would rise ot the fly above the rapids". Palmer notes that Rawls' exploits prompted the club to build the Webster trail and develop the upper river. A choice association copy.

It began publication on May 1 1895 and ceased with vol. 4 no. 3 July 1897. "Bradley was well acquainted with the stylistic innovations of his European counterparts. Like many French artists he borrowed stylistic elements from Japanese prints working in flat broad color planes and cropped forms. He appropriated the whiplash curves of the Art Nouveau movement so dominant in Europe at the turn of the century and was influenced by the work of the English illustrator Aubrey Beardsley" willbradley.com.
