[Manuscript]: "Reminiscences of an Editor" 1967. First. Typewritten manuscript. [13]pp. Carbon transcript typed rectos only secured with a paperclip. Folds as mailed else near fine in original envelope with author's notations. A transcript from the latter half of John Hall Wheelock's career for "Reminiscences of an Editor," which was broadcast on The Third Programme on BBC radio, July 1967 and directed by Geoffrey Bridson. All pages are heavily edited with notations in Wheelock's hand. An essay on his long tenure as an editor at Charles Scribner's Sons, where he took over from Maxwell Perkins, and was a discoverer of new talent. "What an exhausting job it is to be an editor! Like teaching, it is a creative activity and involves the same areas of energy and imagination that are involved in writing." Known as the "cultural boss of the BBC," D.G. [Geoffrey] Bridson, worked until 1969 producing over 800 programs including The Third Programme, which was aimed at "high brow" audiences and aimed to promote "something fundamental to our civilization." .

Contract for "The Green Knight" 5th December 1967. 1967 - One contract of 6 pages, typescript on thin typing paper 32.5 x 20 cm stapled to red card backing, signed by Mick Jagger, Christopher Gibbs and Nigel Lesmoir Gordon, plus Marianne Faithfull, Jagger's then girlfriend, as witness; with a typescript film treatment of 16 pages stapled together at top left, 29 x 22 cm, with manuscript annotations; a little chipping to folds, a little browning, very good. This unique pair of documents records a highly ambitious project that sadly never came to fruition. As Marianne Faithfull recalls in Faithfull: An Autobiography (2000): "Mick began taking acting lessons .Then there was THE MAN WHO SHOT MICK JAGGER and a whole slew of hippie projects. Christopher Gibbs and Nigel Gordon had written a script based on the mystical Middle English romance GAWAIN AND THE GREEN KNIGHT. Mick was going to play the Green Knight - Mick and Keith do the Middle Ages!" (pp. 149-50). Not only was Jagger going to star, this was also likely to be his debut as a producer. The contract here is between Jagger and Christopher Gibbs, his interior designer, and Nigel Gordon, a film editor working for the producer David Cammell, to produce a 25 page treatment of the legend of Sir Gawain to be called provisionally, The Green Knight. The two writers were to begin work on Christmas Day 1967 and deliver the treatment by 1st May 1968. We cannot be sure when the pair delivered their work, but it was nine pages short and had transformed from The Green Knight into The story of Venus and the quest for Arthur's kingdom, a tale set initially in a Welsh gold mine in 1700 and New York in 1968 before settling on an Arthurian England of knights, mystical ladies and an improbable red floating sphere. The project never went any further than this, but it is a fascinating snapshot of the projects that Jagger, the Rolling Stones and the counter-culture in general were beginning to get involved in as the 1960s progressed and their ambitions grew. Neither was this the end of the road for Gibbs and Gordon as film collaborators with Jagger - Gibbs was employed as Consultant Designer on Jagger's breakthrough film Performance, while Gordon's boss David Cammell, the brother of the movie's director Donald Cammell, was a co-producer.

TYPED LETTER - Signed Santa Ana, California 1967 - Typed letter signed "Wm P Lear" in black ink. Letter is dated August 7, 1967, is on company letterhead and measures 8.5" X 11.0" in size. It has normal mailing folds and is in fine condition. Letter states 'Dear Mr. Firca / Congratulations on your / interesting hobby of collecting autographs. I hope you will be / successful in amassing a large and varied collection that will be ' a source of satisfaction and pleasure for you. / Very truly yours, / (signed) Wm P Lear / Wm. P. Lear, Sr. / President". William P. Lear, (born June 26, 1902, Hannibal, Mo., U.S.¿died May 14, 1978, Reno, Nev.), self-taught American electrical engineer and industrialist whose Lear Jet Corporation was the first mass-manufacturer of business jet aircraft in the world. Lear also developed the automobile radio, the eight-track stereo tape player for automobiles, and the miniature automatic pilot for aircraft. The child of immigrant parents and a broken home, Lear said that at the age of 12 he had worked out a blueprint of his life, based upon profiting by inventing what people wanted. He held some 150 patents at his death. After completing eighth grade, Lear quit school to become a mechanic and at the age of 16 joined the navy, lying about his age. During World War I, Lear studied radio and after his discharge designed the first practicable auto radio. Failing to secure the financial backing to produce the radio himself, Lear sold the radio to the Motorola Company in 1924. In 1934 he designed a universal radio amplifier (i.e., one that would work with any radio.) The Radio Corporation of America purchased the plans, giving Lear the capital he needed to expand his operations. He founded the Lear Avia Corporation in 1934 to make radio and navigational devices for aircraft. In 1939 he founded Lear, Inc. By 1939 more than half the private airplanes in the United States were using Lear radio and navigational equipment. In World War II, the company manufactured cowl-flap motors and other precision devices for Allied aircraft. After World War II, Lear, Inc. introduced a new, miniaturized autopilot that could be used on small fighter aircraft. Between 1950 and 1962 the sales of Lear, Inc., rose to $90,000,000. New plants were added in the Midwest and on both coasts, and the company embarked on the manufacture of stereophonic sound systems and miniature communications satellites. Lear himself wanted to expand into low-priced, small jet aircraft for businessmen. When his board of directors would not approve the expenditure, Lear sold his share of the company and formed Lear Jet, Inc., Wichita, Kan., which produced its first compact jet in 1963. The new company¿s jets became among the world¿s most popular private jet aircraft. Lear sold his interest in the corporation in 1967 and formed Lear Motors Corporation (1967¿69) to produce a steam car. [Attributes: Signed Copy] [Bookseller: Legends In History]

Résumé : Partant de l'opposition du miel et du tabac, qui tient une place considérable dans la vie et la pensée des Indiens de l'Amérique du Sud, l'auteur explore à travers leurs mythes deux itinéraires qui se rejoignent : le miel exprime la puissance séductrice de la nature, tandis que la fumée du tabac, s'élevant vers les êtres surnaturels, retient l'homme sur la voie qui l'éloigne de la culture.

Handbill for the Human Be-In San Francisco: Bindwood Press. (1967). Handbill announcing "A Gathering of the Tribes for a Human Be-In" and listing some of the participants -- Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, Jerry Rubin, Timothy Leary, Dick Gregory, "All SF Rock Groups," etc. along with the pertinent details: "Saturday Jan 14 1-5 P.M., Free, Polo Field, Golden Gate Park." The Human Be-In was conceived as another of the unstructured celebrations of the San Francisco hippie community, in the tradition of the earlier Trips Festival. The presence of a roster of superstar figures was intended to help draw out the largest possible crowd, but the star of the event was intended to be the crowd itself. Indeed, the speakers could not be heard much of the time but no one much cared. The bands played in the afternoon, and included Quicksilver Messenger Service, the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Country Joe and the Fish, and others. After the sound system broke down at one point, it was announced that the generator would hereafter be guarded by the Hell's Angels. The event went smoothly: tens of thousands of people showed up, many smoking pot or tripping on LSD, but the police kept a low profile and didn't arrest any of the people openly smoking pot; a priest from the San Francisco Zen Temple meditated on stage throughout the day. At the end of the day, Gary Snyder blew a conch shell -- a traditional Japanese Buddhist ritual instrument -- and Allen Ginsberg led a Buddhist chant, at which point the crowd drifted apart. The Human Be-In became one of the milestone events of the emerging counterculture and, in retrospect, one of its high points. It succeeded for a time in bridging the gap between the San Francisco hippie culture and the Berkeley-based radical political movement, finding some common ground for the two -- a joining of two disparate, and sometimes divergent, movements that has had repercussions to the present day: today, cultural experimentation and alternative lifestyles go hand in hand with political critique, a trend that was considerably more uncommon prior to this occasion. There were several variant designs for the poster: this one was designed by Stanley Mouse, Alton Kelley and Michael Bowen and was the original poster design -- an image of an Indian swami with a third eye added by Mouse. The image was also used as the cover for issue number 5 of the Oracle, the San Francisco underground newspaper, which took on a decidedly more psychedelic look with this number, timed to coincide with the festival. Reportedly, Mouse wasn't especially happy with the design: he felt that the image of the Hindu holy man had been foisted on him, which helps explain the number of different posters for the event. Purple and gray on white. 8-1/2" x 11". Fine. (Jerry Rubin's last name is misspelled as "Ruben.") Scarce and ephemeral; it would seem that few of these have survived.

He spent a long period in isolation, living in a rented residence in Jamaica with no telephone, composing the book. In recent decades, it lapsed out of print until Beacon Press published an expanded edition in 2010, which featured a new introduction passage by Vincent Gordon Harding.King looks back at the civil rights struggle of the 1950s and 1960s. He discusses the question of what African-Americans should do with their new, dearly fought for freedoms found in laws such as the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He concludes that all Americans black and white must unite in order to fight poverty and create a new equality of opportunity. King emphasizes that he is neither a Marxist nor a doctrinaire socialist; he instead advocates for a united social movement that would act within both the Republican and Democratic parties.Background:Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 ?" April 4, 1968) was an American pastor, activist, humanitarian, and leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He is best known for his role in the advancement of civil rights using nonviolent civil disobedience based on his Christian beliefs.On October 14, 1964, King received the Nobel Peace Prize for combating racial inequality through nonviolence. In 1965, he and the SCLC helped to organize the Selma to Montgomery marches and the following year, he took the movement north to Chicago to work on segregated housing. In the final years of his life, King expanded his focus to include poverty and the Vietnam War, alienating many of his liberal allies with a 1967 speech titled "Beyond Vietnam".In 1968, King was planning a national occupation of Washington, D.C., to be called the Poor People's Campaign, when he was assassinated on April 4 in Memphis, Tennessee. His death was followed by riots in many U.S. cities. Allegations that James Earl Ray, the man convicted of killing King, had been framed or acted in concert with government agents persisted for decades after the shooting. The jury of a 1999 civil trial found Loyd Jowers to be complicit in a conspiracy against King. The ruling has since been discredited and a sister of Jowers admitted that he had fabricated the story so he could make $300,000 from selling the story, and she in turn corroborated his story in order to get some money to pay her income tax.Condition:Condition is Very Good.
