FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 224 pp. ; 130 illus. 116 in color. -- with a bonus offer--; Two small books of vivid drawings one filled with images by the Southern Cheyenne warrior-artist Howling Wolf and the other with images by Zotom a Kiowa man came to the Southwest Museum of the American Indian now part of the Autry National Center in December 1986. The books were gifts from Leonora Curtin Paloheimo and had been commissioned directly from the artists in 1877 by Paloheimos grandmother Eva Scott Muse Fényes 1849 1930. At the time Fényes commissioned the books Zotom and Howling Wolf were imprisoned at Fort Marion in Saint Augustine Florida. Like some of the other Southern Plains Indian prisoners held there between mid-1875 and mid-1878 the two men created many drawings for diverse reasons. Some of the prisoners books of drawings including the two that Fényes collected were sold to people who visited the sixteenth-century Spanish fort. After Eva Scott Fényes's death the books went to her daughter Leonora Muse Curtin 1879 1972 and subsequently they were passed to Leonora Curtin Paloheimo 1903 1999. More than one hundred years after their creation the books became part of the Southwest Museum's collections. Unlike most of the museum's other holdings of Native American art these two books originated with a commission by Fényes a young woman who continued as a patron of the arts for the remainder of her life. The study of what has become known as Plains Indian ledger art because the artists frequently used accountants ledger books as sources of paper and of Fort Marion drawings in particular has burgeoned in the last forty years. Joyce Szabo's examination of the two drawing books by Zotom and Howling Wolf encompasses their origins and the issues surrounding their commission as well as what the images say about their creators and their collector. Szabo augments the complete reproduction of each page with detail photographs of the drawings. . 2011. 1934691453 . SAR Press hardcover

Photo Album: 1960s Discotheque Dancer Photo Album

1960réf. 392967New York 1960. Hardcover. Very Good. Oblong quarto. Brown leather over paper boards with "Photographs" embossed on the front board. A collection of 132 black and white or color photographs affixed to stiff black paper as well as newspaper clippings and some postcards. Various sizes with most being 3.5" x 3.5". Boards are good only with tape replacing the spine chips tears and a few present but detached pages overall very good. The assemblage contains photographs and ephemera related to the dancing career of Joyce Pickens. Originally from New York Pickens traveled the United States and Canada performing at clubs and supplementing her income by staying on in some cities to teach the newest dance crazes to hip citizens. In an offprint of an article from a May 1964 Toronto Daily is a discussion of how the Discotheque trend had arrived from Paris and Pickens had stayed on to teach the dances dubbing her "Toronto's original discotheque girl." They quote her as saying "We're headed into another era like the 'roaring twenties.' When the big bands died people gave up going out to dance except at private parties. Now with the discotheque they can have all the variety and sounds they want. everything at the flick of a turntable switch." The photos show Pickens posing in a variety of costumes as a cowgirl a flamenco dress even a bikini and in numerous clubs and venues including California's Moulin Rouge Club. Also tipped in are business cards for some of the backing bands that she danced with such as Alfredito and his Mambo Orchestra Barry Del Rae and Andrew Alvarez. There are also a handful of curious drawings one of a hand-colored treasure map another pencil drawing labeled "Holiday Inn." The end of the album has small newspaper clippings containing advertising for costumers and nightclubs. An interesting and plentiful collection of the earliest gestation phase of the disco area. hardcover
