réf. 51-7275Tokyo: Shinsei Katsusha July 1946. Original pictorial wraps. 18.2 x 25.8cm. 62pp.The Motion Picture Library was a pioneering bilingual film publication launched in Tokyo in post-WWII Japan 1946-1948. Aimed at bridging American pop culture and Japanese audiences it printed full English scripts actor profiles and bilingual synopses of imports like Casablanca. The emergence of these bilingual or heavily translated film resources during the mid-1940s marked a dramatic cultural shift. Following wartime censorship and the total ban of foreign films the sudden influx of Hollywood movies under the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers SCAP created a boom in cine-literacy. .“MÅshon pikuchÄ raiburarÄ«” wa dainijisekaitaisengo no Nihon 1946-nen 〜 1948-nen ni oite TÅkyÅ de sÅkan sa reta senku-tekina bairingaru eiga shuppan-monodeatta.

réf. H8611Good. 8vo marbled boards book itself rubbed and used with 38 pages filled in from 1821-29 detailing Hugh Montgomery's efforts to support the education of Horatio Trafalgar Beck 1807-1880s. Montgomery lived at Levington Cottage near Ipswich. He refers to the boy's father as his deceased "messmate" and given the boy's name named after Horatio Nelson's famous 1805 triumph we can well imagine that the elder Beck and Montgomery must have been in the Navy together under Nelson. After Beck died Montgomery took it on himself to provide financial assistance for young Horatio's education and contacted the boy's uncle John Beck -- much of the copy book is taken up with establishing Horatio in school and providing John Beck an annual 5-10 Pounds to support Horatio's prospects and the furtherance of his studies. In short time financial hardship and ill health beset Hugh Montgomery and it was a struggle for him to meet the obligations he's set for himself and querulously he expresses the hope rather often that Horatio is worth all this effort. He is also "vexed" that Horatio's mother has not done anything to support her own child. Toward the end of this copy book the letters turn toward Horatio's future and there is an account of a visit from the mother who thinks that Horatio should engage in a career at sea which is what his father wanted for him. Montgomery makes inquires about placing Horatio on a ship engaged in trade with the Indies thinking a long voyage would be a good way to commence his learning. The letters end abruptly in 1829 with Horatio's prospects still unclear. From research on genealogical sites we have found that Horatio lived a long life married had at least three children and that his occupation at least in later years was listed as "joiner. unknown
