Zhao Ziyang , High-ranking politician in the People's Republic of China (PRC). He was the third Premier of the People's Republic of China from 1980 to 1987, and General Secretary of the Communist Party of China from 1987 to 1989 (1919-2005).
        Signed portrait photograph.
      n.p., n.y. - 240 : 175 mm. Official German press photograph of the Chinese politician Zhao Ziyang together with German politician Ernst Albrecht. Signed by both on the recto. - As a senior government official, Zhao was critical of Maoist policies and instrumental in implementing free-market reforms, first in Sichuan, subsequently nationwide. He emerged on the national scene due to support from Deng Xiaoping after the Cultural Revolution. He also sought measures to streamline China's bureaucracy and fight corruption, issues that challenged the Party's legitimacy in the 1980s. Zhao Ziyang was also an advocate of the privatization of state-owned enterprises, the separation of the Party and the state, and general market economic reforms. Many of these views were shared by then-general secretary Hu Yaobang.[2]His economic reform policies and sympathies to student demonstrators during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 placed him at odds with some members of the party leadership, including Premier Li Peng. Zhao also began to lose favour with paramount leader Deng Xiaoping. In the aftermath of the events, Zhao was purged politically and effectively placed under house arrest for the next 15 years. He died in Beijing in 2005, from a stroke, but because of his political fall from grace he was not given the funeral rites generally accorded to senior Chinese officials. His unofficial autobiography was published in English and in Chinese in 2009, but the details of his life remain censored inside mainland China. [Attributes: Signed Copy]

DOWD, John M
        In the Matter of Peter Edward Rose, Manager, Cincinnati Reds Baseball Club: Report to the Commissioner (a k a The Dowd Report)
      New York: Office of the Commissioner Major League Baseball. May 9, 1989. First. First edition. Quarto. Plastic comb-bound photo duplicated pages with a clear plastic front cover, and card rear cover. 225pp. Handwritten copyright notice on the title leaf. A small chip and tear on the plastic front cover, page edges a bit thumbed, a near fine copy. The damning report prepared by attorney John Dowd for the Commissioner of Major League Baseball, which resulted in the lifetime ban of Pete Rose from Major League Baseball. This copy Inscribed by the Commissioner of Major League Baseball to a young attorney in Dowd's office: "To ---, Thank you for all your help -- Bart Giamatti." Purchased by us directly from an attorney, then working in Dowd's office, who reports that when Giamatti received the final report at Dowd's office, he promised to sign autographs for the staff, most of whom proffered baseballs. Our friend offered the report instead, the evidence of which we offer here. Apparently later generation copies of this report occasionally appear in the sports world signed by either Dowd or Rose, but we have not heard of another signed by Giamatti, who died less than four months later at the age of 51, only eight days after his final decision to ban Rose. Rare thus. .

PARKER, Robert B. and Joan

Quartos. 58pp, 59pp., 60pp., 55pp., and 55pp., with two groups of additional revisions laid in of 15pp., and 4pp., respectively. Bradbound in red studio wrappers, each with various color sheets: white, blue, red, yellow, green, and "buff." Near fine with some light wear at the edges. A collections of five versions of the screenplay for the Spenser: For Hire spin-off television series, A Man Called Hawk, based on the Robert B. Parker character played by Avery Brooks. The scripts include: "First Draft" (1/27/89), "Final Draft" (2/9/89), "Revised Final Draft" (2/10/89), "2nd Revised Final Draft" (2/14/89), and another "2nd Revised Final Draft" with two separate groups of loose sheets laid in, each with additional changes (2/21/89 and 2/22/89). Together the scripts show the difficult development process that television scripts undergo and are particularly interesting in revealing Parker's involvement with this story penned along with his wife Joan. The episode, first titled "White Poison," was originally broadcast on March 25, 1989 as "Poison." Screenplays for Spenser: For Hire are available on the market, with copies written by Parker notably scarcer. We have seen no other screenplays of A Man Called Hawk, let alone several versions of the sole episode written by Parker. .

B/W photographs documenting buildings and people in Sarajevo 1989 and 1993-1994, including a Muslim boy evacuating out of Bosnia to Israel with the help of Jewish-sponsored rescue convoys. Evocative images include Jacob Finci, President of LA Benevolencija in the Jewish Museum of Bosnia; Zayneba Hardaga, the first Muslim to receive a righteous gentile award; keys taken by Jews leaving Spain in 1492 from the collection of the Jewish Museum of Bosnia; Sarajevo University Library, and the Sarajevo Jewish Cemetery, which was the front line of the Bosnian War. The project was underwritten by The Doron Foundation (Tel Aviv) Mordechai Mevorach (director) and The Righteous Persons Foundation (Santa Monica) Steven Spielberg (chairman). Fine condition. Housed in original gray linen clamshell box, bumped with some cloth separation along rear hinge. "As a documentary photographer specializing in contemporary Jewish life in Central Europe, when Sarajevo was besieged I wanted to see how a post-Holocaust Jewish community would react to war and "ethnic cleansing'" for the second time in fifty years. I wondered; would all the Jews leave? would those remaining lock their doors, letting their neighbors fight it out among themselves? After all, this was a war between Serbs, Croats and Muslims, in which the Jews play no contentious part. and while the majority of Jews fled the city, a vital core remained to stand with their friends and neighbors. Working together, they have turned history on its head, because for the first time during a modern European war, Jews are saving and protecting Christians and Muslims, wherever, whenever they can."

Borrowed Angel, by Annie Joyce Duke, is a simple, yet heartfelt story of a young couple's devotion to their retarded child. In a time when no help could be had and none offered, facing overwhelming hardships and death, Ellen and Mark meet their challenges with faith, joy, and an underlying love. The entrance of Bambi, their borrowed angel, changes their comfortable lives into a series of triumphs, tragedies, heartbreaks, and hopes. Facing each day with doubt, fear, and uncertainty, their faith is put to an even greater test - an unplanned pregnancy. Can they risk having another retarded child? Birth or abortion? Only God can help them find the answer. Mrs. Duke's Borrowed Angel is a truly inspiring story about one family's strength, determination, and love in God.
