1920réf. 157265N.p.: N.p. 1920. Vintage reference photograph from the 1926 film. Photograph shot at high film speed showing a roadster jumping a train crossing with the train approaching seconds before possible impact. The astute viewer will note that the guard rail has not yet been broken. With a lengthy annotation in manuscript pencil on the verso regarding guerilla production techniques taken by Poverty Row studios during the 1920s. An stunning photograph capturing a split-second moment from a common trope of early action cinema - motorists escaping capture by deftly crossing train tracks narrowly avoiding collision with an oncoming train. The production number in the bottom left of the photograph "4296" matches known photographs from the lost 1925 action serial film "The Scarlet Streak" directed by Henry MacRae and starring Jack Dougherty and Lola Todd. Just as fascinating is the extensive annotation on the verso: "Poverty Row crews were accustomed to film stories in the 1920s streets. The city of Los Angeles becoming inured to the novelty a license costing $400 was required for shooting on public thoroughfares. Camera crews were trained to set up fast complete the street scenes quickly and vanish before the police arrived to check for a license. So grab shots were common. "The favorite action sequence was the transfer of an actor from an automobile to a moving train or crossing the road in front of the train and breaking the guard rails at the last moment. "The best place to film this was in Pasadena where the Santa Fe Railroad passed along the blocks of paved streets. A director or camera man boarded the train there carrying their heavy luggage to the observation car. As soon as the train moved out of the station they hauled a camera and tripod out of the bags. The motorcycle or automobile appeared at the designated spot where another cameraman was set up. As the actor made the daring transfer or split second crossing the camera cranked out the action. The conductor generally came along to toss the film makers off the train at the next stop but it was a marvel of economy for the novelty of early film making." 10.25 x 8 inches. Very Good plus with a small chip to the top left margin chipping to the bottom right margin with a minutae of image loss to the bottom right corner and edgewear and creasing to the right margin.

réf. 8674Manuscrit autographe signé de 6pp. grand in-4, ( rédigé au verso de 5 feuillets à l'en-tête du Ministre de l'Instruction Publique, sous-secrétariat d'Etat aux Beaux-arts ). Compte-rendu d'une visite sur le front., titré par l'auteur " Des cinémas pour les Poilus". Manuscrit à l'encre d'une plume large, plusieurs ratures, surcharges et ajouts . Armand Dayot, alors Inspecteur général des Beaux-arts, rend compte d'une visite dans les tranchées " Je reviens aussi de l'enfer, mais je n'y ai rencontré que des héros... J'allais dire des Dieux. Ici ni gémissements plaintifs, ni larmes de désespoir " coulant intarissables du creux des orbites"... Partout autour de moi.... dans tous les coins et recoins de cet inextricable labyrinthe... soldats presqu'improvisés, parfois sordidement vêtus de glorieux haillons, après tant de longs mois de souffrance et de combats , la barbe rude, le teint brulé mais les yeux pleins de flammes et le sourire aux lèvres, ce bon sourire français si près de la blague et de la chanson...". Il fait part de son émotion, voire " d'une vive commotion lorsque le premier obus de 150 éclata à une cinquantaine de mètres " ... Puis Dayot s'entretient avec l'officier " sous un abri casematé et blindé, que le bruit de la canonnade faisait trembler " qui l' interrroge sur les soldats : " ...que pensez-vous de nos poilus ?... Je pense que chacun d'entre eux mérite une statue ". L'interlocuteur de Dayot reconnait que ce serait " une excellente aubaine pour les sculpteurs ... mais ... assure... nos Poilus n'en demandent pas tant; Tachez seulement d'obtenir pour eux quelques ( rayé), un appareil cinématographique...". L' officier poursuit " tant que nos Poilus sont en première ligne, tout va bien. Devant la mort le moral est excellent... (le soldat) est immobile , comme un bronze....un braconnier à l'affut....Puis vient l'heure du repos, l'heure où tout danger disparait.. Alors les nerfs se détendent, les songes nostalgiques montent du fond de l'âme, et le Poilu loin de toute distraction , s'ennuie. C'est l'heure du cafard..." . Devant ce plaidoyer pour le cinéma , Dayot note de demander au Journal Le Matin de faire connaitre ce souhait " et je serai bien surpris que cette mesure salutaire ne se généralise pas bientot sur tous les fronts de bataille"... L' officier précise encore " Mais surtout pas de films tristes, pas de drames larmoyants, mais des histoires "bien rigolotes" avec de jolies petites femmes... Tuons le cafard pour mieux tuer le Boche...". Dayot revenu à l'arrière, prend des notes sur sa visite, il écrit son compte-rendu dans une chambre de la sous -préfecture (?) à tous vents, dans une ville où "le jardin est bouleversé par les obus", où les maisons s'écroulent. Il pourrait s'agir de Baccarat ( nom figurant à la fin de ses notes).

1831Prima edizione. Esemplare appartenuto al quadriumviro Cesare Maria De Vecchi, con ex-libris «Conte di Val Cismon», in gradevole legatura ottocentesca; qualche normale segno del tempo, ma ottimo esemplare ad ampi margini. Oltre a Foscolo, Monti e Pindemonte si trovano componimenti di Berchet, Saffi, Torti... «il [nome di Lorenzo Mascheroni], affiancato a quello del Monti, riappariva però [...] in una silloge di rime patriottiche, l’“Antologia repubblicana” del marzo 1831, che reca l’indicazione di Bologna [...]; ma anche in questo caso si dovrà pensare ad un’origine ticinese del volume. In quella raccolta, che aggiornava alle recenti insorgenze politiche la più importante delle miscellanee di inizio secolo, il “Parnasso [...]” del 1801, la mascheroniana “Canzone all’Italia” [...] si aggiunge a una dozzina di testi del Monti; il repertorio [...] ripercorre i momenti più alti dell’epopea [...] e ben rappresenta [...] il rilancio di quel bonapartismo patriottico e libertario, allegorico e classico, che allora alimentava molte speranze» (Spaggiari).
