Union Central Life Insurance, 1953. Very Good. Vintage ink blotter featuring advertisement for the Union Central Life Insurance Company with a vignette cartoon by Chas Addams, notable for his "Addams Family" and dark, macabre humor. Blotters were useful during the heyday of fountain pens (a device that tended to bleed ink), to be placed behind the parchment to absorb the excess ink and keep safe any surfaces beneath. Other blotters featuring the Union's ads include calendars with woodcut art by Lumen Winter. About 4 x 9 inches, card stock, printed on recto, plain blue verso. Very Good overall, foxing, rubbing, toning, a few bumps and creases but discreet. A rare Addams appearance.

Johns Hopkins University, 1993. Near Fine. First Edition, published simultaneously in hardcover and softcover. Square octavo, 80pp, full-color. Photography of the US Eastern Shore around the Chesapeake Bay. Abandoned buildings, ghostly houses, crumbling architecture. Near Fine.

N.p., 1970s. Very Good Plus. Vintage silver gelatin black-and-white photograph featuring adult film star and pinup model, Uschi Digard. Uschi is standing nude, slightly askew, holding up a tasseled white shawl, circa late 1960s/early 1970s. Notable photographers worked with Uschi, including regulars at Parliament News like Ron Vogel, and the pulchritudinous purveyor of buxom B-movies, Russ Meyer. Approximately 8 x 8 inches, black-and-white, single-weight, blank verso but with "5308" series number stamp. Very Good Plus, with only faint surface wear and toning overall. For mature, consenting audiences.
