Contact seller5-star sellerVintage black-and-white double weight still photograph of director Paul Morrissey and actor Joe Dallesandro, shot during the making of Andy Warhol's 1968 film "Flesh." Photographer Werner Bokelberg's rubber stamp and manuscript pencil annotations to the verso. Morrissey's first production for Warhol, Dallesandro's second leading… role, and an intentionally envelope-pushing film, Dallesandro plays a bisexual prostitute who tricks in order to fund his wife's lover's abortion. "Flesh" was considered so explicit that it was confiscated by the police in 1970 during one of its early screenings, and features an overabundance of scenes that depict our main character's genitalia. The two would work together on five more Warhol films following "Flesh," including "Lonesome Cowboys," and "Heat." 9.5 x 11.75 inches. About Near Fine.

File folder containing over 50 offprint clippings for sail plans, newspaper clippings, 4 TLS & ALS (2 on letterhead), 1 5 x 7 in. photo of Mabry, and more. These extraordinary sail plans, designs, specifications, and clippings trace the career arc of a marine architect career with some of the most significant yacht and ship designers in New York and Boston, and Southern California. Mabry (1882-1949) launched his career with the storied Gardner & Cox Naval Architects of New York, later William Gardner, as chief draftsman, and later inspector for the firm. He was responsible for designing the earliest version of the Star Class keelboat which produced a large chunk of the top U.S. sailors for years, and served as pipeline for training America's Cup Racers, as one of the older one-design classes. His initial design made its regatta debut on Long Island in the Spring of 1907, which was then adapted by storied designer Francis Sweisguth who adapted the size of the hull and sail plan. This archive includes the blueprint Hull Body Plan, Lines, and Sail Plan for the Cyric, a Class "S" 32 foot sloop built for Eldon H. Trimingham, which raced for the LIpton Cup on Gravesend Bay, and later carried the Trimingham colours until the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club brought in a fleet of seven one-design sloops in 1925. It later raced in the 1930 International Yacht Races. Also included are the Block List, Body Plan, and Lines for Hull No. 254 by Gardner which was a 46 foot Class "S" finished in 1912 originally for Seward Prosser who also owned the yacht Constance. Of additional significance are the Hull Plans and Specifications for the Larchmont "O" Class sloops built in 1917 with six sister ships -- Georgia, Varuna, Nimbus, Grey Dawn, Maisie, and Betty with all except for the Varuna fitted with Gaff rigs. The Varuna fitted with a groundbreaking Marconi Rig proved to be the fastest design at the close of World War I. The tragic Sea Call, one of yachting's greatest schooners as well as one of its greatest lost opportunities is well represented here including the Main Mast Head, Mizzen Mast Head, Sail Plan designs, together with the typescript Block List. In the design Gardner specified a combination of vanadium steel and monel metal which resulted in violent electrolysis and within three weeks of her first sea trial the decision was made to scrap her. She was designed to hold 10-12 guests, with a private owner's deckhouse. During World War I subsequent to working on the Larchmont "O" Class for Gardner, Mabry contracted with J.F. Duthne & Co. in Seattle as chief draftsman, and after the War set up in Los Angeles as a Naval Architect. While working for the Los Angeles Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Co., he drafted the designs, and plans for the Steamers "Yale" & "Harvard" which had originally served as coastal steamers for the Admiral Line with the Pacific.
