1940réf. 64872Washington Providence Montauk etc. One undated; 5 August 1940; and two envelopes postmarked 25 April 1941 and 29 April1943. Monty on Montauk Four substantial boisterous opinionated and occasionally inebriated letters from Flagg to Willis Birchman addressed variously as "Kid" "Country Gentlemen" "Dear Temperamental Meringue" and "Will Bill" who became one of Flagg's frequent correspondents as a consequence of Birchman having featured Flagg in his 1937 book FACES & FACTS BY AND ABOUT 26 CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS. One letter 4pp. in ink on letterhead of the Providence Biltmore consists of an account of a rather Cutty Sark driven meeting with "Cecil" likely film star Cecil Humphreys with whom he had a long association. Another letter 4pp. written on letterhead of Montauk Manor at Montauk Beach is in pencil and opens with an attractive pencil drawing of a beach scene with cars parked and facing out over the ocean; it relates chiefly to the circumstances of his stay at Montauk and is signed "Cap. Kidd." Another letter 4pp in ink on letterhead of the Hotel Raleigh relates to events surrounding a vague series of meetings in Washington DC involving representatives of the Australian and British governments stops at embassies a meeting with Sumner Welles etc. The last letter dated simply Friday 2pp. in ink is somewhat diffuse but mentions a pending trip to Washington and meetings there perhaps anticipating the stay mentioned in the letter above. Flagg 1877 - 1960 was in his time one of the most prolific and popular of American artists and illustrators. His best known work was one of the most widely distributed recruitment posters for the US military: the iconic image of Uncle Sam captioned "I Want YOU for U.S. Army". Three in ink one in pencil. Folded for mailing otherwise fine accompanied by two envelopes addressed in his hand hastily torn open at one end. unknown

Ward had conceived of the idea of a dry goods mail-order business in Chicago Illinois after several years of working as a traveling salesman among rural customers. He observed that rural customers often wanted "city" goods but their only access to them was through rural retailers who had little competition and did not offer any guarantee of quality. Ward also believed that by eliminating intermediaries he could cut costs and make a wide variety of goods available to rural customers who could purchase goods by mail and pick them up at the nearest train station." In 1896 the US post office started to offer free rural delivery. This led to expansion of the mail order business. - Smithsonian Montgomery Ward & Co paperback

1960réf. 159896Beverly Hills CA: United Artists 1960. Two vintage reference photographs of director John Huston on the set of the 1961 film one of Huston talking with actor Clark Gable the other showing Huston sitting with screenwriter Arthur Miller. One with a printed mimeo snipe on the verso and both with printed provenance labels. A bleak haunting film exploring the loss of independence about a recent divorcée who enters into an unstable relationship with an aging cowboy whom she meets in the Nevada desert. The final completed feature for Gable and Marilyn Monroe before their deaths. Notoriously a trying endeavor for the actress who was struggling with her drug problem and pending divorce from Miller and would often fail to show up to the set and for Huston who would drink and occasionally fall asleep while filming. Gable performed all of his own stunts then suffered a heart attack only two days after filming ended and died ten days later. Shot on location in Nevada. 10 x 8 inches. Very Good plus.
