Vintage double weight borderless portrait photograph of director, editor, and writer Rob Wagner, circa 1920s. Insignia of photographer George H. Seeley from the negative at the bottom right corner of the recto. Prolific pictorialist photographer George Henry Seeley attended the Massachusetts Normal Art School from 1897 to 1901 f…or painting, before a meeting with photographer F. Holland Day kindled an interest in photography. In 1904, his photographs were included in the First American Photographic Salon in New York City, and as a result of this showing he was invited by Alfred Stieglitz to join the invitation-only photographer's group the Photo Secession. Although he enjoyed a lengthy career as a director, screenwriter, and magazine writer, Rob L. Wagner is best remembered today as the editor and publisher of "Script," a left-leaning, weekly literary film magazine published in Beverly Hills between 1929 and 1949. A lifelong Socialist and advocate for progressive causes, Wagner used "Script" to give a voice to blacklisted screenwriters (including Dalton Trumbo and Gordon Kahn) and prominent leftists, including Upton Sinclair, Max Eastman, and William C. deMille. Wagner also worked as the part-time secretary of Charlie Chaplin starting in 1915, and with Chaplin and others founded the Motion Picture Relief Fund (which later became the Motion Picture and Television Fund) in 1929, providing financial aid to film industry workers. 7.5 x 9.5 inches. Near Fine.

Vintage borderless vernacular photograph of actor Charlie Chaplin, writer Upton Sinclair, and editor and publisher Rob Wagner on the set of the 1918 silent film. Annotations in manuscript ink on the verso identifying subjects. Wagner was the editor and publisher of "Script," a left-leaning, weekly literary film magazine publishe…d in Beverly Hills between 1929 and 1949. A lifelong Socialist and advocate for progressive causes, Wagner used "Script" to give a voice to blacklisted screenwriters (including Dalton Trumbo and Gordon Kahn) and prominent leftists, including Sinclair, Max Eastman, and William C. deMille. Wagner served as something of a father figure to Chaplin (who was about 17 years Wagner's junior) after the two men met sometime in the mid-1910s. The pair formed a close friendship, with Wagner serving as Chaplin's part-time secretary for a period, and accompanying the actor on his Third Liberty Loan tour through the American south in 1918. Wagner introduced Chaplin to Sinclair and Max Eastman, and together the three writers exerted a strong influence over Chaplin's political world view. Chaplin would go on to co-found the Motion Picture Relief Fund (which later became the Motion Picture and Television Fund) with Wagner in 1929. Approximately 5 x 4 inches. About Near Fine, lightly age toned.
