Description:
Akron OH: Saalfield No. 1074, 1934. A rather unusual uncut book with an affluent family of six, plus a nurse for the children and Bim the cat and Pal the dog. Each of the punch-out characters has only one leg attached with a second to be attached according to instructions using a needle and thread. This allows the dolls to both "stand alone" and "walk". Total of three (3) character pages and four (4) costume pages. All of the costumes and accessories were designed to give the appearance of wealth and privilege to the degree of each child's costume is holding a different toy. Unique in many ways the characters are quite tall, Father is 15" tall. The book measures 15 3/4" x 10

Description:
[Minneapolis, Minnesota]: Friedman Film Corporation, 1915. Very good to near-fine. Letter folds, short tear to center of folds (no loss of content).. Modesty is kicked to the curb in this flashy illustrated advertisement for a showing of "Wars' Women", a self-described "stupendous" 1915 silent film starring Enid Markey denouncing violence towards the "weaker sex" in times of war. "Wars' Women" appears to be a lost film, but survives in the form of reprints reissued under the titles "The Despoiler" (1916) and "The Awakening" (1920); the film was rarely shown, however, due to censorship issues (AFI Catalog). It was most recently restored and shown by the Cinémathèque française in 2010 based on a French reprint which was shorter and featured added intertitles. The present advertisement offers several stills from the film that highlight both its melodramatic flair and racist content (the villain, "The Emir", is played by the actor Frank Keenan with dark makeup and exaggerated stereotypical features--…
