réf. 16-5572New York: Martin Beck Theatre1942. Gouache in 4 colors on board.66 x 48 cm. Witold Gordon was a Polish-born American Art Deco painter best known for his murals in Radio City Music Hall completed in 1932. He painted a 6000 square foot mural for the 1939 New York World's Fair and a series of New Yorker covers depicting the city in its recent past. He also designed the poster for the original Broadway production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! .Gordon was born in Warsaw Poland in 1885 and studies at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. After he finished his studies he moved to New York. He worked with Donald Deskey in the design of Radio City Music Hall where two of his murals are exhibited. He illustrated books and designed the poster for the Olympic Games in Lake Placid NY in 1933. In 1939 he created a painting for the New York Worlds' Fair. He traveled throughout the South and produced a series of paintings with the name "American Scene" which was exhibited in 1941 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. During his travels he painted in Gouache storefronts and housefronts that he felt showed the true face of America. In 1934 he was commissioned by Conde Nast to paint a series of "New York Shops" New York Shops you Never See which were published in Vanity Fair Magazine in July of 1934. In 1932 when Georgia O'Keefe accepted the commission to paint a mural in the Ladies' Room in Radio City Music Hall and abandoned it at the advice of her husband Alfred Steiglitz who said "Ms. O'Keefe does NOT do bathrooms!" Witold Gordon was given the commission and painted two murals for Deskey's masterpiece.Witold Gordon died in 1968.1943."Free men cannot start a war but once it is started they can fight on in defeat. Herd men followers of a leader cannot do that and so it is always the herd men who win battles and the free men who win wars.”― John Steinbeck The Moon Is Down.The Moon is Down was John Steinbeck's second attempt at writing a novel in play form Of Mice and Men was his first. It was composed while on assignment from the Foreign Information Service a division of the Office of Strategic Services charged with combating Nazi propaganda. His original story depicting a small American town invaded by enemy troops was rejected by the FIS who feared that it might demoralize the civilian public. In his revised manuscript published by Viking in 1942 Steinbeck kept the same plot but set it in an unnamed Scandinavian town rather than the United States. Despite mixed critical reception the book was a remarkable public success outselling The Grapes of Wrath two-to-one in pre-publication; it would eventually pass through 76 editions. Shortly after publication the producer Oscar Serlin purchased the dramatic rights to The Moon is Down Herman Shumlin initially bought them but passed them on saying he “did not care for The Moon is Down’s politics.” Serlin known for his production of “Life with Father” accepted the challenge believing Steinbeck’s play would attract a large audience. “The Moon is Down” premiered on Broadway in April 1942 starring Otto Kruger as Colonel Lanser and Ralph Morgan as Mayor Orden. Like the novel before it the play was publicly adored but critically lambasted. Life magazine reported that it was “trumpeted louder than any literary event of the season” while the critical consensus was that “Steinbeck was too easy on the Germans too optimistic about the ultimate victory of the Allies and ultimately too moralistic." Despite its initial Broadway run lasting only nine weeks the play was immensely successful on the road and abroad especially in London and Stockholm. Rather surprisingly it was nominated for Best Play by the New York Drama Critics’ Circle and placed second.Provenance: From the estate of producer Oscar Serlin.

With a separate exhibition-quality original print numbered and signed by the Artist on 11 x 14 inch paper. 29 colour photographs / Con una stampa originale sciolta su carta pesante numerata e firmata da Doug Rickard Esemplare 74/100.

A New American Picture di Doug Rickard offre una prospettiva sorprendente e fresca sulla fotografia di strada americana. Mentre a prima vista l'opera appare rassicurante familiare e ben all'interno dei confini tradizionali del genere la sua metodologia è tutt'altro che convenzionale. Tutte le immagini sono prese da Google Street View; per un periodo di due anni Rickard ha approfittato dell'archivio di immagini della piattaforma per "guidare" virtualmente per le strade sconosciute e trascurate d'America luoghi deserti che sono stati dimenticati economicamente devastati e abbandonati.

1968réf. 32820417More than 50 items. Good condition organized in plastic sheets in an old red vinyl three-ring binder. The 1968 Democratic National Convention of 1968 held in Chicago was a landmark event in American political history. John M. Bailey of Connecticut who had helped to orchestrate Johnson's landslide victory in 1964 oversaw the contentious presidential campaign of 1968 in which Robert Kennedy Hubert Humphrey Eugene McCarthy and others sought the Democratic nomination. This collection of papers to and by longtime Democratic National Committee Chairman John M. Bailey includes: • Eugene McCarthy 3-page telegram requesting an opportunity appear before the Committee to present his argument that "the administration's course in Vietnam is dangerous and wrong." • Various papers by the McCarthy campaign concerning its goals and requesting information concerning officers seating and other logistical matters at the convention. In the end the party was less than helpful to the McCarthy campaign instead unifying behind Humphrey. These papers help to reveal the struggles of the McCarthy campaign to present its dissenting views. • Convention press kit containing biographies maps flyers and a poster. • Correspondence concerning credentials and passes. • Correspondence and press releases concerning the status of the campaign ranging from state delegates voicing their concerns to a copy of Bailey's memorandum to the White House reporting on developments state-by-state. • Copies of a letter signed by Kennedy two weeks before his assassination with a note stating that his family agreed to its distribution. The 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago saw protests and riots outside the convention and a bitterly contested fight inside the convention hall ultimately leading to the nomination of Hubert Humphrey who lost to Nixon in November.

Presentation Copy from the Author. 8vo. 332pp. Original unclipped dustjacket. Stated First Edition. A very good copy. Binding is strong interior fresh & clean. Boards show slight shelfwear & minor bumps at the corners. Jacket is very good showing edgewear & light chipping. A wonderful presentation copy given by Lane to her friend Elsie Jackson in England. Great lengthy inscription & signature on the title page. Lane was the daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder author of the "Little House" bo oks. Books inscribed by Rose Lane Wilder or Laura Ingalls Wilder 1867-1957 are very uncommon. Rose Wilder Lane 1886 -1968 Danbury Connecticut was an American journalist travel writer novelist & political theorist & the only surviving chil d of Laura Ingalls Wilder now the better known writer. Lane's accomplishments remain however quite remarkable. She is considered a seminal force behind the American Libertarian Party. By the time the first Little House book was published by Laura I ngalls Wilder 1932 Rose had already published 10 works of biography & fiction. The daughter's influence on the Mother's work is unmistakable & her contribution to the entire Little House series well documented as Rose collaborated multidimensionall y in the crafting of the entire series.
