1949Best.-Nr. 5007Atlanta Ga 1949. Very good. Eight printed documents most completed in manuscript. Some folds mostly minor dust-soiling wear and creasing moderate toning and some unobtrusive chipping. An interesting group of documents issued from the Afro-American Life Insurance Company's Atlanta District during the Jim Crow period. The collection includes a Member's Receipt Book issued by an agent of the company in La Grange Georgia with twenty manuscript entries in pencil collecting weekly insurance dues for a policy holder named Minnie B. Reed over the course of a few months in 1949; a small folder issued to Reed presumably to hold her receipt book; four loose partially-printed receipts for premiums paid by a man named Paul Ealy also in 1949 completed in manuscript weekly payments for life insurance for both of these policy holders was twenty-five cents; and two blank application forms for the company's insurance service. The application forms include the company's home office address in Jacksonville Florida and indicates the company's expansion through the use of several ink stamps applied to most of the documents indicating the material emanated from the company's Atlanta office. The present grouping provides an interesting snapshot of insight into the company's activities costs and reach during the period just after World War II.

1967Best.-Nr. 129429Beverly Hills CA: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer MGM 1967. Draft script for the 1968 British film. Based on Bernard Malamud's 1966 Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning novel. Set in Czarist Russia Frankeheimer's adaptation is a brutal realization of Malamud's novel wherein a poor Jew named Yakov Bok assumes the identity of a Gentile after moving from the country to Kiev in order to secure a job working for a drunken anti-Semite. When Bok is wrongfully accused of murder he must go to prison to avoid stigmatizing the entire Jewish community. Alan Bates was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of Bok. By 1960 the blacklisted Trumbo one of the Hollywood Ten began to receive credit for his work in Hollywood after serving time in a federal penitentiary for his conviction in the House Un-American Committee hearings to impugn possible Communists in the US. Shot on location in Hungary. Light blue titled wrappers dated September 7 1967 with a credit for screenwriter Trumbo. 138 leaves with least leaf of text numbered 129.

1950Best.-Nr. 233431950. Steel construction photo archive documenting the labor system of midcentury building expansion in Macon Georgia depicting how fabrication delivery crane work and frame erection operated within the commercial and industrial growth of the postwar South. An unidentified commercial photographer working for local firms recorded construction as an active process through graded sites exposed structural skeletons transport vehicles stacked steel rail access and crews handling heavy members before enclosure. The presence of a truck marked "Georgia Steel Erectors and Fabricators" places the archive within the working world of regional steel contractors whose labor connected shop fabrication road transport and on-site assembly during the decades when Georgia cities expanded through new industrial plants warehouses and commercial structures. Photo archive of 10 silver gelatin photographs each 8" x 10" Macon Georgia circa 1950s to early 1960s. The photographs center on different stages of steel-frame construction including long rows of newly set columns broad skeletal buildings rising from cleared ground and partially enclosed structures with cranes positioned beside masonry walls and open bays. One image shows a crane truck with the side panel lettering "Georgia Steel Erectors and Fabricators" while another records large steel beams loaded on a trailer. Several views widen to include rail lines running directly into or beside the worksite stacked pipe or cylindrical materials graded roadbeds and an aerial overview that places the project within a larger industrial landscape of streets lots and service buildings. Laborers are shown throughout the archive on construction sites hauling and directing material. The sequence repeatedly favors unfinished structural stages over completed architecture making the archive a record of process material handling and coordinated building labor rather than a promotional set of finished-property views. Studio stamps en verso identify Drinnon Inc. by Ralph Jones Macon Georgia and one bearing the stamp Bryson's Photography Pensacola Florida. These photographs preserve the mechanics of midcentury construction at the point where steel fabrication transport and erection crews shaped Georgia's built environment. Macon's role as a commercial and industrial center made projects of this kind central to regional development and this archive shows that growth through the practical use of cranes beam delivery frame sequencing and the integration of road and rail infrastructure into the construction site itself. Light surface wear and minor edge wear; studio stamps clear on versos. Overall very good condition. The archive shows how labor materials and structural steel systems produced new industrial and commercial space in midcentury Georgia. unknown books

Yates Levy / Savannah / February 9th 1858. small piece of clear cellophane on part of lines above signature (signature not affected) . Uncommon work by this Jewish author who would go on to become a Confederate Officer during the Civil War. Levy (1827 - 1888) . Was also editor in chief of the Savannah Daily Advertiser, and in April 1868 Levy criticized in print the political views of a certain Dr. James Waring. Waring, apparently thin-skinned, demanded a duel. Levy obliged, but luckily friends were able to defuse the situation (Encyclopedia of Southern Jewish Communities, 2013) . Logan was a popular actress of the mid-19th Century, daughter to Cornelius Logan, a comic actor & playwriter who served as her manager until his death in 1853. While Logan was born in Philadelphia, she made her name in the antebellum South, with many lucrative engagements in cities such as Savannah, where she, no doubt, inspired Mr. Levy to write this work in her honor.

1888Best.-Nr. 177281888. Jones Charles C. Negro Myths from the Georgia Coast 1888 presenting a late nineteenth-century compilation of African American folklore recorded in the Gullah dialect of the Georgia and South Carolina coastal region with direct relevance to the study of Black oral traditions linguistic history and post-emancipation cultural expression. The volume gathers fable-like narratives often centered on anthropomorphic animals that reflect storytelling traditions rooted in African diasporic heritage and adapted within enslaved and freed communities of the coastal South. Its use of Gullah a Creole language shaped by West African linguistic structures and English situates the work within ongoing efforts of the period to document vernacular speech and preserve forms of cultural expression that had developed under slavery and persisted into Reconstruction and beyond.

A rare original coastal survey of the border between Georgia and South Carolina including Savannah Ossabaw Island Wassaw Island Skidway Island Tybee Island. Bluffton Beaufort Hilton Head Island Port Royal Island Phillips Island Fripp Island Hunting Island and Parris Island. Established by President Thomas Jefferson in 1807 as the Survey of the Coast the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey was the United States' first civilian scientific agency. This agency has followed its mission to survey the U.S. coastline create nautical charts of the coast and help increase maritime safety since its founding and has often played fascinating roles in significant chapters of U.S. history. It served in all theaters of the Civil War in the service of the Union Army and Navy pioneered acoustic exploration in the wake of the sinking of the Titanic and during WWI it worked to detect enemy submarines. In addition this agency worked to survey and produce detailed maps and renderings of the U.S. coast. These nautical survey maps commonly referred to as "T-sheets" provide fascinating insights into the history of the United States coastline which has and will continue to shift. These maps are the most important data source for understanding the physical and ecological characteristics of the U.S. shoreline. The present map is a highly detailed and accurate sea chart of the coastal border of Georgia and South Carolina and an important historical view of the developing states.
