ONE: Christmas card. 12mo bifolium, with coloured illustration of Christmas candle on cover. Pearson writes: 'FOR [corrected from 'from'] | Edward. A. Carrick | from his old inspirer | George Pearson | 1970'. The association between the two men was warm. In the acknowledgments to his 'Designing for Moving Pictures' (1941) Craig writes that chief among those in the film industry who helped him was 'George Pearson, who gave me my first job as Art Director to his film company in 1927 and who has encouraged me ever since.' In the acknowledgments to the revised edition, 'Designing for Films' (1947), Pearson's name is the only one given in block capitals, as Craig writes: 'To GEORGE PEARSON, as friend and teacher, a special debt of gratitude is owed, for his encouragement at all times has made the future of the films seem worth striving for.' Craig's entry in the Oxford DNB describes his 'first break into the film world. In 1927 Edward Carrick, as he was to be known professionally for the rest of his film career, began working for the enlightened film-maker George Pearson at the Welsh-Pearson-Elder company, at Stoll Studios, Cricklewood.' See also Pearson's entry in the Oxford DNB. TWO: 'Photographic Journal' article. 4pp., 4to. Extracted from magazine. 'This paper, illustrated by films, was read by Mr. Pearson at the Western Conference on 29 February 1948.' In fair condition, with slight discoloration to one corner. Accompanied by a slip of paper with typed cutting from the end of a letter::'PS . . . And here is the shade of the palm into which I have had to withdraw from the dazzling light of the highway. GP'. From the Edward Carrick papers. Seller Inventory # 17918
