ESP Disk Catalog

1971Best.-Nr. 38867NY: ESP Disk 1971. Tabloid format 8 pp. printed on newsprint illustrated with a Gilbert Shelton character on the front. Paper tanned as would be expected with some loss to the folds and edges small light stain to middle front else a very good example. While we've had a few copies of the 1967 catalog and the more uncommon 'Special Complete Catalog" this one is new to us and were not aware of its existence until it threw itself over our transom. Though it originally existed to release Esperanto-based music starting with the release of Albert Ayler's Spiritual Unity ESP became the most important exponent of the burgeoning free jazz music scene of the time releasing records by such future greats as Sun Ra Frank Wright and Sunny Murray among others. Along with free jazz the label also produced music by Ed Sanders' band the Fugs the Lower East Side folk of the Holy Modal Rounders and the primitive proto-noise of the Godz. While never much of a commercial success for the musicians the label's philosophy of "The artists alone decide what you will hear on their ESP-Disk" led to the creation of a musical output that to this day wields a heavy influence.

[DANCE SCHOOL PHOTOS -- JAZZ AGE/WOMEN]. [KNOWLES, Annabelle Gertrude (Director); BAKER, Almeron Joseph, BEEM, Ira Kintner & CENBiblio.com

A captivating group of commercial studio photographs of the performers performances and costumes at the Hollywood College of Music Dancing and Fine Arts in Portland Oregon as the Jazz Age descended into the Great Depression. The performers of the “Baby Vanities” and “Kiddie Revue” range in age from 6 & 7 to teenage years including both girls and boys.

1930Best.-Nr. 58055Portland OR: Hollywood College of Music Dancing & Fine Arts Baker Studio Granada Studio La Vere Photo Shoppe Photo Craft Studios ca. 1930-1933. Oblong 4to. 24 original photographs all preserved in archival mylar sleeves sized 6.25 x 7 in. up to 8 x 10 in. some w/ photographer’s imprint w/in negative others w/ manuscript captions added a few w/ annotations and/or photographer’s instructions on versos all with bright strong contrast a few w/ offsetting from previous mounting on versos and one w/ very small pinholes at corners from prior mounting. Recent cloth binder stamping front cover excellent grouping. These photographs vividly document the dance and music studio operated by Annabelle Knowles reflecting the fast evolving costumes and aesthetics of the twilight of the Roaring 20’s as the U.S. descended into the Great Depression. These photos also clearly reflect the influence of Gus Edwards 1879-1945 vaudeville’s premier producer of kiddie acts and who had produced and released the shorts “Kiddie Revue” in 1930 and 1931. His influence was not only driven by his songs “By the Light of the Silvery Moon & “School Days” but also discovering such stars as Groucho Marx Eddie Cantor Mae Murray Sally Rand and many others. The images depict girls in two-piece outfits in front of Art Deco staging for “Body and Soul”; bare-backed girls in Flapper Era inspired costumes for chorus line “Kiddie Revue”; song and dance routines featuring Ronald Chetwood in top hat with Marcile Shillito Virginia Collins and chorus line in Jazz Age era costumes and canes; and several show Barbara Jane Wicks Shirley Jay Mulkey and Sunny Dentler in Spanish inspired costumes for “Baby Vanities.” Another shows adolescent boy and girl dance team in an “Apache” dance inspired costume number. The Hollywood College of Music Dance & Fine Arts offered classes and instruction in all ages with the last few photos showing teenage girls in chorus line with short hair coquettish expressions and teamwork or chorus line numbers. Annabelle Knowles 1900-1989 was a musician and dancer who founded the Hollywood College of Music Dancing & FIne Arts at 4112 NE Sandy Blvd. some time in the late 1920’s. Most of the street directory references focus on 1929-1932 and her British-America theatre-director husband at the time Vincent Knowles 1883-1944 worked at the studio as well. Baker 1882-1972 was a longtime commercial studio photographer in Portland OR who had initially begun as a photographer with noted tourist travel guide Howard Eaton photographing tours through National Pakrs. Beem 1892-1984 was founder and photographer at Granada Studio located in the 1930’s at 515 Swetland Building in Portland. Centlivere 1878-1964 owned and operated La Vere Photo Shoppe and Photo Craft Studios on Sandy Blvd. in Portland for nearly all of his career. We could find no similar collections or photographs or even references to Annabelle Knowles and very few examples of any of these three photography studios in institutional holdings.

Flyer for Pearl Bailey’s USO Show with Louie Bellson

1950Best.-Nr. List2914Unknown location 1950. 7 x 11 inch poster. Some small marginal tears overall excellent. A small poster for Pearl Bailey with the Louie Bellson Quartet presented by the United Service Organizations and Department of Defense. Bailey 1918–1990 was a singer dancer and actress; she started her career performing at Black nightclubs on the east coast and later performed in several Broadway hits including an all-Black version of Hello Dolly! Louie Bellson 1924–2009 was Bailey’s husband a composer bandleader and jazz drummer credited with inventing the double bass drum setup. Bailey toured regularly with the USO beginning in 1941 though this poster is likely from later; the DOD was called the Department of War until 1949 and the USO was inactive between 1945 and 1950. unknown books

Street View of Dance Halls in San Francisco’s Barbary Coast Neighborhood c. 1910

1910Best.-Nr. List2810San Francisco California 1910. Single photograph approximately 6 ½ x 9 inches manuscript verso reading “SF Barbary Coast 500 Block of Pacific ”THE SO DIFFERENT” now 550 Pacific Ave 1911”. Appears to be trimmed from a larger photograph. Portion of image cut and pasted with editorial overpainting. Some damage to edges and corners with one tear at right middle some residue from pasting a now-missing object; overall very good. A photograph taken on Pacific Street in about 1910 showing a group of men standing by the curb in front of The Midway The Bear and The So Different nightclubs note that the sign for The Midway is pasted in. This block in Barbary Coastâ€””Terrific Street”â€”was home to a number of dance halls and early jazz clubs many of which like Purcell’s So Different Café were “black and tan” – catering to all races. Founded by former Pullman porters Lew Purcell and Sam King shortly after the neighborhood was rebuilt from the 1906 earthquake and fire Purcell’s was one of the better-known clubs. Influential ragtime and jazz pianist Sid LeProtti led the So Different Jazz band and King Oliver and Jelly Roll Morton are among the alleged guest performers. Patrons could buy twenty-cent vouchers for a quick dance with one of the girls who worked and sometimes lived at the venue. Around 1913 though police began to crack down on drinking and dancing in the neighborhood and by the 1920s the venues were gone. unknown books
