PHOTO ALBUM / SCRAPBOOK, filled with color snapshots, some booklets and other paper ephemera from a 1987 trip, likely by a U.S. Slavic Church group, to Yugoslavia. There are 26 leaves (52 pages) in the album, with photos (and some paper ephemera) pasted onto both sides of the leaves. Most pages have 3 or more 3.5x4.5 inch snapshots, some have booklets or other paper ephemera. There are a total of 115 snapshots. The first 21 photos are of the church group at a Pope's mass at an outdoor stadium somewhere. The photos are of the the crowds at the stadium mass, members of the church group, and other scenes at the stadium. Next comes a large photo postcard of Zagreb captioned with a handwritten note stating "Zagreb / First city for us in Yugoslavia". Then begins a large section of photos and some ephemera related to the group's visit to Medjugorje. Their stay in Medjugorje seems to have been the main purpose of the trip. There are 45 snapshots and several pieces of paper ephemera. The snapshots are accompanied by the following handwritten notes: ******Our group and first views of Medjugorje; Family dinner at Medjugorje, three Fathers one Sister, Jesusa and her Mother; Medjugorje Parish Church, Father McDonald of our group from San Francisco and others behind organ and beneath choir left of Apparitions; Chinese Mass in Apparition Room at Church with Mary giving the Hail Mary; VISITING THE VISIONARIES VICKA AND MARIJA AT THEIR HOMES; Andrej Subie took us to visit.

Then some photos of Mostar, more pictures of the group, a photo card of a bush with a miraculous appearance of the Virgin Mary which "was shown to the children in Medjugorje, Yugoslavia, and it was confirmed as true". Then a few photos of buildings on Lopud Island. Quite an interesting album, especially so since the snapshots were taken in 1987, only a few years before the Yugoslavian Civil War (the Yugoslav War) which began in 1991 and devastated the former Yugoslavia for the next ten years. Condition: The album is sturdy, the photos are bright and clear, the photos and ephemera are glued on to the album pages and cannot be removed, the thin plastic covering to the album pages is sometimes torn or missing but that does not affect the items on the album pages.

ORIGINAL DRAFT FILM SCREENPLAY of THICK AS THIEVES, a 1998 film starring ALEC BALDWIN, Andre Braugher, Rebecca De Mornay, Julia Sweeney, and Janeane Garofalo.

Award Winning MAKE-UP ARTIST ALLAN APONE'S PERSONAL WORKING COPY, with his name at the top of the title page. Allan Apone was the HEAD OF THE MAKEUP DEPARTMENT for the film.

What makes Allan Apone's copy especially rare and wonderful is that it is filled with 105 unique color photographs of the stars, including many of a 1998 Alec Baldwin. The photos are tipped-on to the blank backsides of many pages of the script, facing pages in which the stars have a scene requiring special makeup. The photographs show the stars in various poses, mostly without make-up (a few with some trial blood and wounds), mostly in what appear to be their home or yard settings, in poses and with facial expressions probably called for by Apone in order to help him decide how to make them up for various scenes (what scar goes where, what blood should cover that nice shirt, how should that face look when struck by a bullet, how old should I make that face look, etc.) The photographs are mostly 3x5 inch, all in color, all unique.

A true working copy. There is green highlighting throughout, and blue lines highlighting scenes requiring makeup: "Blood is on his right hand and the right sleeve of his jacket. He takes off the jacket, turns it inside out, uses it to wipe his hand clean." There are also a couple notes written in the margin regarding makeup: "Muscle bleeds from right side corner of mouth down chin".,

The script is a revised draft dated March 25, 1998, with multi-colored revision pages (blue, pink, and yellow) dated to April 13, 1998. There are 113 8.5x11 inch pages, various colors, .photocopied on one side only, 3-hole punched in the left margin, bound with 2 brass brads. The script was written by Scott Sanders & Arthur Krystal, based on the novel by Patrick Quinn. It was directed by Scott Sanders.

GOOD Condition: The script shows general signs of handling and use (it's a working copy after all) with some creases and a bit of soiling here and there; the title page has torn from the brass brads and is laid on loosely, it has tearing and creases around its upper and lower holes, and some edge wear and corner creases; otherwise a complete, bright, clean and clear copy. The photographs are all very bright and sharp, a couple are creased where the script folded on them incorrectly.

A unique insider look into the world of film makeup. With the 105 photographs of the stars, most as blank slates ready to be changed by the makeup artist, this script is truly a wonder.

And there is Alec Baldwin to boot!

THREE ORIGINAL PANORAMIC PHOTOGRAVURE ENGRAVINGS of BREST (France) by ARTAUD ET NOZAIS, Nantes, undated but circa 1915. Fold-open panoramic plates - photo engravings, numbered 1 - 3, originally of a set of such engravings. Each photogravure is 22x9.5" (56 cm x 24 cm). Each has printed information at the bottom right corner: "ARTAUD ET NOZAIS, IMP.-EDIT., NANTES." One of the plates is hand-tinted. 1. BREST - LE PONT DE RECOUVRANCE (Though this bridge was Officially the "Pont National" prior to its being destroyed, rebuilt, and renamed "Le Pont de Recouvrance" after World War II, this is an early image of the Original Bridge circa 1915. The bridge, even in 1915, was often referred to as the Pont de Recouvrance because it connects to the Recouvrance District of Brest.) 2. BREST - LE PORT DE COMMERCE ET LA RADE. (This Photogravure is beautifully HAND-TINTED.) 3. BREST - LE PORT DE GUERRE. Only FAIR CONDITION. The photogravures each have a stiff vertical fold down the middle as issued; there are also numerous vertical creases, probably from being rolled-up numerous times; there is edge and corner wear; there is light foxing; and there are general signs of handling. Nonetheless, these panoramic plates remain clear and the images are wonderful. The postcard images by Artaud et Nozais are easily found, but these ORIGINAL PANORAMIC PHOTOGRAVURE PLATES circa 1915 are VERY SCARCE.
