Magnificent portrait of the great suffragist reformer activist free-thinker and poet Sara Bard Field 1882-1974. Field was also the passionate lover of the anarchist C.E.S. Wood and the couple lived together in a celebrated "free union" first in San Francisco then in Los Gatos "where they built a house . that became a gathering place for Bay area writers artists and political activists" American National Biography; and where the famous Bay area photographer Johan Hagemeyer 1884-1962 made this fine indelible portrait in the year her first volume of poems appeared THE PALE WOMAN. According to THE BANCROFT LIBRARY'S on line "Guide to the Johan Hagemeyer Photograph Collection": "In late 1916 just prior to Hagemeyer's return to California - and despite having had little photographic experience - Hagemeyer visited Stieglitz's 291 salon in New York City. The two developed an immediate rapport and the meeting proved to be decisive for Hagemeyer. "We talked" Hagemeyer later recalled "and he practically by way of speaking made me follow photography. I had already gone overboard for it" OHT 22. "Back in California Hagemeyer first apprenticed with a Berkeley-based commercial portrait photographer named McCullagh. Soon afterwards he moved south to Pasadena and in early 1918 met Edward Weston already by then an accomplished photographer based in Tropico now Glendale. The two took an immediate liking to each other and formed a friendship and working partnership that was of mutual benefit: Weston opened his home and studio to the upstart Hagemeyer and Hagemeyer introduced the relatively unschooled Weston to new worlds of intellectual and aesthetic learning. The two would have a profound influence on each others' artistic development for years to come. Arch. see essays by Lorenz and Schaefer "Hagemeyer's talent developed rapidly and by the early 1920s he was exhibiting his work in many important photographic salons and garnering much popular and critical acclaim. After moving to San Francisco at the end of World War One Hagemeyer soon discovered the intellectual and artistic colony of Carmel-by-the-Sea. In 1923 he established his first studio in Carmel and would remain anchored there for over 20 years. In 1924 he established the town's first art gallery - based out of his studio - where he exhibited the works of local painters sculptors and photographers and hosted very popular musical performances. Shortly thereafter Hagemeyer opened a second studio in San Francisco whose clientele could be rivaled by that of Carmel only during the smaller town's summer vacation season. In 1927 he was appointed staff photographer of the artistic/literary magazine The San Franciscan . unknown books

The autobiography of the prominent socialist cartoonist Art Young inscribed to a woman he names in his book with the correct spelling of her first name as one of "the beautiful women I have met who were active in progressive or radical affairs." Sara Bard Field was a suffragist poet and Christian socialist married to the writer and civil liberties activist Charles Erskine Scott Wood. Young refers to Wood in his letter to Field: "I am impelled to write you because of your good poem in the Marxist magazine New Masses. The foreword too interested me because I think of you both -- often I can picture our Grand Old Man looking heroically toward the sunset. Tell him I'm with him such a spirit will never die. We of the old guard: artists and writers recall his fine record of doing and daring when we meet here in New York and discourse." Young signs with his name and a small sketch of a sunset over water. He wrote his affectionate note two days before Wood's 89th birthday a touching tribute from one famous pacifist to another not long before their country would be plunged into total war -- the subject of the poem that prompted Young's letter.

1935ref. 21255New York: Bard Bridge Bureau 1935. Fine. A beautiful vintage arguably antique duplicate bridge set with eight duplicate sleeves each with their four hands already set up with cards inserted into their slots these sleeves the type still in use except these instead of an aluminum composition are made of bakelite and epitomize Art Deco design. N.d. circa 1930s. We know little at this time about George Bard other than he was an active tournament player in the early days of modern bridge -- the 1920s into the early 1940s and he certainly had to have been a Grandmaster. We also know that the "Bard Bridge Bureau" was in business in the 1930s. We would infer that this business besides selling duplicate kits such as the one here had a mail order business of sending out duplicate hands and almost certainly accompanying the hands would be commentary so that the players could learn from their play afterward. The kit was intended to be one that supplied all one needed to play duplicate other than the tables and chairs. It came with eight sleeves ours with the eight decks also already dealt a 14 page booklet with the nuts and bolts of duplicate laid out scorecards and other paraphernalia. We can comfortably represent that ours is essentially complete -- we can not say we have all the scorecards that were originally in the kit but we certainly have everything that really mattered and also we have at least a sample of the other less critical things. The box is about 4 lbs or 1.6 kg and it measures 26 by 22 by 4 cm. We think our kit is in Fine condition with a few minor caveats. The box has two small pieces chipped off from its lid side. One of those pieces the larger one we have and thus can be re-attached. The cards show signs of use. One envelope has penciled numbers. Bard Bridge Bureau unknown books
