All the ear-marks of a sneaky Jap!

Image
Description: Black & white cartoon drawing of two men talking. One hushes the other, while pointing upward at a drawing of a human ear centered on a Japanese flag design. In the background is a large ship and a factory. Two flags fly over the factory: One with an "E" on it, and another with "RCA" on it. Note: "Litho. in U. S. A." "Form 1S5269RE" Based on the printer's mark and RCA flag in the image, this poster was most likely produced by RCA as part of its production incentive campaign.  E-mailed RCA and its parent company Thomson requesting referral to librarian, but did not receive appropriate response. 5/11/04  Other posters by Alexander are listed at DB#799 & 800.

Christie's returns to the car auction biz

Image
This is going to run at work on Friday (the link will not be active until then), but that's a long time to wait for a blog post, especially one it took me all freaking day to assemble. As no one reads this, I can post it here and at least have the satisfaction of seeing it myself. HAM, GEO (GEORGES HAMEL 1900-1972) M.C.F. ( Motor Club de France--ed ) lithograph in colours, printed by Max Courteau, Paris, condition A-; not backed 16 x 12in. (40 x 30cm.) At their May 20 South Kensington sale next week , Christie's is featuring period posters, with dozens of iconic racing and advertising images. These are not from the age of Jimmy's Photoshopped Corvette Posters--these are serious works of art, some closing in on a century old and priced as such.

The American Automobile Factory Map project

As part of a story I'm working on, I put the Staver factory in Chicago on a Google map. Since then, I've added another few dozen factory locations, and am launching it as an open map project, since I couldn't find anyone else who had done such a thing. Collaborators are welcome.
