Ink inscription to front free end page: "To Mitchell Rogovin, with my regards and good wishes-" dated "June 11, 1974" and signed by Elizabeth Black. Shelved in Room F. Mitchell Rogovin (1930-1996) was a prominent American civil liberties lawyer and U.S. government counsel. In private practice, he was known for his 1971 defense of New York Times reporter Neil Sheehan for his role in the publication of the Pentagon Papers. Second Story Books is honored to offer this item from the personal collection of Neil and Susan Sheehan. Neil Sheehan (1936-2021) and Susan Sheehan (1937-2026) were a distinguished husband-and-wife team whose careers helped define American literary journalism in the second half of the twentieth century. Neil Sheehan, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter for The New York Times, is best known for his role in bringing the Pentagon Papers to public attention and for his landmark book "A Bright Shining Lie", while Susan Sheehan built a parallel reputation as a leading voice at The New Yorker, crafting deeply reported narrative nonfiction on subjects ranging from mental health to social institutions, earning her own Pulitzer Prize in 1983. Their longstanding ties to major publications, particularly The New Yorker, placed them at the center of an influential cultural and intellectual network, and the books from their library carry added provenance through this close connection to the magazine's editorial and artistic community. 1413143.

An original black and white photograph of the 1967 Warren Supreme Court, boldly signed by all nine justices. A group portrait showing the justices in two rows, signed in the blank lower margin, each justice near his own portrait:Â Abe Fortas, Potter Stewart, Byron White, Thurgood Marshall, John Marshall Harlan, Hugo Black, Earl Warren, William O.

The Warren Court refers to the Supreme Court of the United States from 1953 to 1969, the years in which Earl Warren served as Chief Justice. One of the most transformative periods in the Court's history, the Warren Court handed down a series of landmark decisions that reshaped American life, from Brown v. Board of Education, which struck down racial segregation in public schools, to Gideon v. Wainwright, Miranda v. Arizona, and Reynolds v. Sims. This photograph captures the Court near the end of the Warren era, following the 1967 appointment of Thurgood Marshall, the great civil rights lawyer who had argued Brown before the Court and who became the first African American to serve as a Justice of the Supreme Court.…

First edition of this glimpse into the personalities of the justices of the Warren Court. Quarto, original publisher's cloth, illustrated with two intimate portraits of each justice by Yousuf Karsh. Association copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper to celebrated portrait photographer Yousuf Karsh, "To Yousuf Karsh with good wishes John P. Frank." With a note laid in from Frank, "Dear Yousuf - You will find an autograph in here for you from each of the Justices. Regards, JPF." Additionally signed by each Justice and inscribed to Karsh beside their portraits, in order of appearance: Earl Warren, Hugo L. Black, William O. Douglas, Tom C. Clark, John Marshall Harlan, William Brennan, Potter Stewart, Bryan R. White, and Arthur J. Goldberg. The recipient, Yousuf Karsh, is recognized as one of the leading photographers of the twentieth century. Arriving in Canada in 1924 as an Armenian refugee, Karsh eventually settled in Ottawa. Over six decades, he mastered the art of portraiture and created a unique chronicle of his time through images of celebrated legends. Some of his most notable subjects include Winston Churchill, Audrey Hepburn, Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Ernest Hemingway, among others. A celebrity in his own right, he was an elegant and charming public figure, captivating audiences with compelling stories told in images and words. Karsh sought to capture, as he put it, the âelusive moment of truth,â revealing the essential nature of his subjects as reflected in their eyes, hands, and attitudes. From the collection of Yousuf Karsh with his estate label to the front pastedown. Held by the Estate of Yousuf & Estrellita Karsh; after Yousufâs death in 2002 passing to Estrellita Karsh; after Estrellitaâs death in March 2025 passing to Katherine Getchell.

A unique piece of history. The Warren Court during the period from October 1967 to May 1969 represented the culmination of the Courtâs liberal constitutional revolution. This lineup presided over several landmark decisions that reinforced civil liberties and the rights of the accused. In Katz v. United States (1967), the Court expanded Fourth Amendment protections to include electronic surveillance, holding that the Constitution protects people, not just physical places. In Epperson v. Arkansas (1968), the justices struck down a state ban on teaching evolution, strengthening the Establishment Clause. Moreover, the Court advanced principles of racial equality and free expression, setting precedents that shaped American law well beyond Warrenâs retirement in 1969.…
