1969rif. 229941969. LGBTQTransgenderCross-Dressing Anonymous. Miss High-heels. New York: Grove Press Inc. 1969. First U.S. edition. Octavo. Lime green cloth boards in original photo-illustrated dust jacket. First published anonymously in Paris in 1931 Miss High-heels is an infamous work of fetishistic and feminization-themed erotica presented here in its first U.S. printing by Grove Press known for its defiance of censorship and promotion of transgressive literature. The novel tells the story of Dennis Evelyn Beryl a young effeminate English aristocrat who under the coercive influence of his domineering step-sister Helen is gradually transformed into "Denise" the titular Miss High-heels. Framed as a fictional memoir penned at Helen's command the narrative follows Dennis's journey from privileged heir to submissive cross-dresser. He is forced into girls' school stripped of masculine identifiers and eventually returned to the family estate clothed in "diamond-buckled satin slippers" and "the finest silks and satins" fully assuming the role of a "fetichiste-du-pied." Themes of humiliation and gender inversion mark the main character's transition as a fetish story but the book also allows for them to feel comfortable in their new identity: "Eventually Dennis is brought to realize how much more pleasurable is his life as a young girl and he willingly abandons his name fortune and life to the whims of Helen." Notable both for its elaborate prose and for its early depiction of forced feminization fantasy Miss High-heels occupies a space between pornography and proto-trans literature which would later flourish in small press chapbook format in the 80s and 90s. While drenched in the misogynistic and sadomasochistic tropes of its genre the text is nevertheless of interest among scholars of queer publishing history. Binding tight and square; boards clean; jacket bright with light shelfwear and a single 1/2 in closed tear at the top margin of front panel. Overall near fine in very good dust jacket. A historically resonant text in trans and fetish literature. unknown books

1994rif. 201941994. Elliott Stephan director. The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert 1994 documents drag performance transgender identity and queer mobility within late twentieth-century cinema situating its narrative in the Australian Outback as three performers travel together and encounter varied social environments. The film follows characters portrayed by Guy Pearce Hugo Weaving and Terence Stamp with Stamp's role as Bernadette presenting a transgender woman within a narrative that foregrounds resilience performance and community. Released during a period of expanding international visibility for LGBTQ stories the film received critical recognition for its costume design and visual presentation winning the Academy Award for Best Costume Design at the 67th Academy Awards and later developed into a stage musical that extended its cultural reach. Its portrayal of drag and transgender experience contributed to broader shifts in representation within global cinema during the 1990s. The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert. PolyGram Filmed Entertainment: Australia 1994. Archive of four original silver gelatin press photographs each measuring approximately 8 x 10 inches. Images include Terence Stamp as Bernadette in formal attire and Guy Pearce both in and out of drag including a performance costume featuring elaborate feathered design. Photographs retain the compositional clarity typical of studio-issued promotional stills intended for press and publicity use. Produced at a time when LGBTQ narratives were gaining increased prominence in international film these photographs align with the circulation of queer cinema across national boundaries and the role of visual promotion in shaping audience reception. The emphasis on costume character and performance reflects the film's engagement with identity as both lived experience and theatrical expression. As a group the images contribute to the documentation of late twentieth-century LGBTQ representation in film and the visual culture surrounding its promotion.

1917rif. List3648New York City: Leo. Feist Inc. and others 1917. Five pieces of sheet music see full inventory below. Overall very good plus. Julian Eltinge 1881–1941 was the most commercially successful and popular female impersonator of his time. Beginning with drag performances in his adolescence he developed a convincing portrayal of female characters—shocking audiences at the end of shows by revealing that he was in costume—and had a successful career on the vaudeville circuit and on Broadway followed by appearances in several silent films and as mores around crossdressing changed in nightclubs. Offered here are five pieces of sheet music written for Eltinge three of which are from the 1910 musical comedy The Fascinating Widow. A New York Times review of the Widow remarks that “once over the initial unpleasantness of the idea of female impersonation which is not easy for people of delicate sensibilities there is nothing especially displeasing about Mr. Eltinge’s efforts at femininity” and notes Eltinge’s popularity and ability to draw crowds.1 Titles Included: “In the Land of Wedding Bells.” Howard Johnson and Geo.
