1970réf. 16443JCulver City: Metro-Golwyn-Mayer Studios 1970s. The original "Myrna Loy Building" metal sign from the M.G.M. Hollywood Studio lot. In the 1970s the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studio started naming various buildings after their classic film stars. Myrna Loy was alive and well at the time of the naming of her building. This sign was acquired by a gentleman who worked as a carpenter on the lot for many years. His accompanying letter reads: During the middle 1980's 85 to 89 I Michael McGovern worked at the old M.G.M. lot Studios in Culver City California in the Permanent Construction Dept. The lot was sold several times in this time frame. At one point before the now Sony Studios it was owned and named Lorimar Telepictues. When the lot was Lorimar Telepictures they were painting and changing the M.G.M. lot to the new Lorimar "look." Thus the signs Blue and Gold naming the building after the old M.G.M. stars were taken down and replaced with the new signs brown and white that matched the Lorimar colors. I asked my boss if it was OK to keep the signs I changed and he said it was fine with him. Myrna Loy is best known for her portrayal of "Nora Charles" in six Thin Man films with William Powell of the 1930s but also starred in Manhattan Melodrama Libeled Lady Test Pilot The Best Years of our Lives Cheaper by the Dozen and From the Terrace. Her film career spanned more than 50 years Accompanied by a copy of Mr. McGovern's "Prop Maker" ID card. The sign measures 18 1/2 x 8 1/4 inches and presents with some obvious wear from the elements like extremely small areas of rust and signs of use overall in excellent condition. Today the studio lot is owned by Sony and it houses both Sony Pictures and Columbia Pictures. The Myrna Loy Building which was the old MGM sound department exists and it still proudly bears her name.

THE BOXER UPRISING 1900 This work documents the results of the Boxer Uprising of 1899-1900 where in anti-foreign sentiments reached a boiling point. Several foreigners were killed mostly missionaries later when foreign embassies were besieged some diplomats were also killed.

This superb work contains a total of 114 b.w. photogravures. This work shows historic photographs of the foreign troops occupying Beijing Peking China. Good photographs of these troops in and around the Forbidden City namely those from Japan Russia France America and Germany. . What makes this graphic work important is that it shows a large part of the Palace and other Forbidden City buildings as they were before the troops actually damaged or pillaged these historic sights. Each country garrisoned their troops in a select group of old buildings hither to unseen by commoners and especially never by any foreigner. It is a superb look at the inner world of the Emperor of China. . THE PHOTOGRAPHER: YAMAMOTO Sanshichiro 1855-1943: . He was an eminent Meiji era photographer born in Okayama.
