Vintage studio still photograph from the 1970 film. With an American International Pictures stamp to the verso, alongside a cello-taped mimeograph snipe. Featuring a "black militant" being forcibly removed from the room by actor Larry Hagman, while Harlene Jones and Judy Pace look on. A lighthearted comedy and a movie that probably could not be made today, in which Wes Stern fails out of college attempts suicide, only to be saved against his will by university president Larry Hagman, who flunked him. In grumpy retaliation, Stern decides to bed the three women most important to the president: his mistress, his wife, and his daughter. Set against the backdrop of Civil Rights campus upheaval. Shot on location in New Mexico. 8 x 10 inches. Near Fine.

Three vintage oversize photographs from a circa 1962 performance from the pioneering improv group The Premise, one featuring founder and performer Theodore J. Flicker, one featuring original players James Frawley and Joan Darling, and one showing theatre entrance. Each with the stamp of "Horizon" magazine on the verso, along with manuscript annotations crediting photographer Morton Shapiro, and noting one of the photograph's inclusion in the January 1962 issue. Beginning with his work at Chicago's legendary Compass Players, Flicker, alongside the likes of Mike Nichols, Elaine May, and Del Close, helped create and codify the rules and structure of American improvisational comedy. In 1960, he founded The Premise Theatre troupe in New York's Greenwich Village, where they would perform improvised shows from 1960 to 1962, before eventually moving to the Comedy Theatre in London's West End. In addition Frawley and Darling, who would go on to long careers as television directors, where Darling would become one of the first women to receive an Emmy nomination, The Premise help launch the careers of Gene Hackman and Buck Henry. Flicker and Henry would co-write the 1964 film, "The Troublemaker," based on their work at The Premise, and which Flicker would direct, and in which they both would appear alongside Frawley, Darling and other members of the troupe. Two photographs 13.5 x 9 inches. One photograph 14 x 8 inches. Near Fine, mounted on board.
