2012ill., ril. Un racconto corale sulla colonizzazione dell'Ovest nordamericano, creato nel 1962 per la rivista argentina "Misterix", aggiornato a Parigi nel 1980 e completato nel 1995, poco prima della morte del suo autore. In questa nuova edizione, l'opera che più a lungo di tutte ha accompagnato la carriera di Pratt si presenta rimontata in pannelli a tre strisce, come da lui concepita. Perla della sezione a colori prevista in chiusura di volume, quella che pare essere l'ultima creazione artistica del maestro veneziano, "un soldato e un indiano che guardano verso un orizzonte dove tenui figure danzanti sembrano dileguarsi tra nubi azzurrine", come scrisse Cesare Medail sul "Corriere della Sera".

2022I film western ci fanno vedere le carovane con i carri, ma non ci dicono nulla dei carri stessi, della durata del viaggio, del cibo e della vita quotidiana dei pionieri. Ci parlano del Far West, senza dirci cosa esso fosse in realtà; ci fanno vedere sceriffi e saloon, senza che possiamo saperne la storia e come essi fossero per davvero; ci fanno vedere locomotive sbuffanti e battelli a vapore, ma non ci dicono nulla di essi; ci mostrano soldati a cavallo e i loro forti, ma non ci parlano della loro vita quotidiana. Vediamo gli Indiani, generalmente mostratici come cattivi, senza quasi mai dircene i motivi. Questo elenco potrebbe continuare a lungo: cowboys, tipi di case di indiani e pionieri, corse all'oro, bordelli, assegnazione della terra ai pionieri... Se qualcuno ha curiosità al riguardo, potrà trovare delle risposte, non pedanti, in questo libro. Autori: Giovanni Maglioni.

1967réf. 167971967. Western Union International Inc. stock certificate 1967 documents the corporate financing of Western Union's international communications business during the transition from traditional telegraphy toward newer telecommunications technologies. Western Union had separated its international cable properties into Western Union International in 1963 and the company became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange in 1967. The certificate therefore dates to the year of that public listing and records the financial structure supporting an international communications enterprise descended from the nineteenth-century telegraph network. Western Union International Inc. Stock Certificate. 1967. Series N3669. Engraved and printed by the American Bank Note Company with an ornate orange border surrounding the principal text and a central vignette depicting two allegorical female figures among clouds. Printed facsimile signatures of the company's President and Secretary appear on the certificate. The document combines corporate ownership information with elaborate security engraving characteristic of American stock certificates preserving material evidence of Western Union International's capitalization in the year its shares entered public trading. Western Union's nineteenth-century telegraph network had transformed long-distance communication before telephone service increasingly displaced telegram traffic during the twentieth century. Its earlier confrontation with Bell over telephone patents ended with an 1879 settlement under which Western Union withdrew from the telephone business while telegraphy remained central to American commercial and social communication for decades afterward. By 1967 Western Union International belonged to a communications industry increasingly shaped by telephone cable microwave and other electronic transmission technologies making this certificate a dated corporate record of that technological transition.
