1915Best.-Nr. 63112New York: Grosset & Dunlap ca. 1915. 8vo. 8 374 pp. Photo frontisp. 7 photo illust. Red cloth white lettering minor shelfwear faint tidemark wicked into fore-edges of plates at the very fore-edge w/ d.j. cover art with KKK rider on horseback next to heroine minor chipping head & foot of spine minor closed tears edgewear still G/VG- copy. First Photoplay edition of the notorious movie starring Lilian Gish Henry B. Walthall Mae Marsh Miriam Cooper Ralph Lewis George Siemann and others which steeped in the Confederacy’s Lost Cause mythos which had heavily influenced the misguided Dunning School’s interpretation of Reconstruction and significantly influenced Dixon and Woodrow Wilson. Directed by D.W. Griffith the movie was very successful but the racist overtones and blatant support of the Ku Klux Klan triggered widespread protests and it was banned in several cities. Very much like 21st-Century media Birth of a Nation’s portrayal of African-Americans created a justification for prejudice and discrimination which undermined Civil Rights for decades and reactivated the largely quiescent Ku Klux Klan movement and was the first film ever screened at the White House for President Wilson.

1915Best.-Nr. 26775New York 1915. Irish propaganda targeting the British during W.W.I. from the Irish World of January 30 1915. During W.W.I the struggle for Irish independence was suspended with the Nationalist forces splitting over support of the war. This handbill appears to be an effort to incite hatred of the British with racist descriptions of Fijian soldiers "the cannibals we may say" who fought for the British. There is a clear preference for Germany - "And these are the savages the cannibals we may say whom Britain is bringing over to fight the most enlightened nation of Melancthon and SchlegeL of Kant. of Mozart and Beethoven and Wagner of Goethe and Heine." The text characterized the Fijians as cannibals "dark copper colored have black eyes and bushy hair worn in the form of a mop" short stature protruding stomachs legs bowed and feet flat and usually nude. The photograph shows the Fijian soldiers standing at attention behind a British Officer photo by Paul Thompson. The text of the handbill is extracted from The Irish World and American Industrial Liberator published in New York between 1878-1951. Hand bill 9 x 7 3/4" printed in blue on cream paper verso blank. Creased with marginal tears and small margin loss. Unrecorded on OCLC although there is a W.W.I poster with the title "Civilization Vs. Barbarism" 1914 but associated with Red Cross Week. OCLC: 894257435. unknown

Best.-Nr. 26566English each print 'Copyright Entered at Stationers Hall'. Circa 1888. The four plates each 29 x 23.5 cm are loose and unframed in fair condition aged and worn with no margins chipping to the edges and with the corners cut off at a diagonal. Each title written in pencil in a contemporary hand on the reverse of the print each with a price of '6d'. The subjects are not depicted in unattractive style and are certainly not grotesques but they are shown as 'simple' untroubled individuals with the usual happy gleaming brown faces and shiny white teeth. The 'humour' would appear to be intended to be found in the substitution in quintessentially English scenes of 'foreign' for English faces. This set is generally classed as 'Black Americana' but there are two reasons for assuming that it is of British origin. First each plate is stated in the bottom right-hand corner to be 'Copyright Entered at Stationers Hall' and second a report in the British Printer 1888 notes that 'Two new series of humorous subjects are "New Renderings of Old Song Titles" each picture containing a puzzle and "Sambo's Courtship" both highly amusing and certain to furnish plenty of fun and amusement for the little ones'. Some are listed in "Black Americana: Price Guide: edited by Kyle Husfloen" Google which appears to give incorrect information about the publishing date and "American" printing etc. English (each print 'Copyright Entered at Stationers Hall'). Circa 1888. unknown
1936Best.-Nr. 61085Washington D.C.: Associates in Negro Folk Education 1936. 8vo. 6 98 pp. Decorated tan softcovers Art Deco designs on front cover lettering in black gilt & red minor scuffing lower fore-edge front cover still a VG copy. First edition of this 4th installment in the storied “Bronze Booklet” series which quickly became a standard reference for teaching African-American history in the United States and Europe and addressed a number of racial conflicts and issues surrounding the impact of race on political and economic history. This important groundbreaking work by Bunche not only represented his most extended analysis of the issues of racism but also the role of race and racism in World economic and political conflicts Imperialism and inherent racism as well as the fact that race “has been used to whitewash some of the blackest pages in American history.” Bunche 1904-1971 was a leading African-American intellectual diplomat supporter of the US Civil Rights movement and would later be awarded the 1950 Nobel Peace Prize the first African=American so honored.
