Vintage "A Big Hand to Warners for 'The Big Sleep'" gatefold brochure from the Mystery Writers of America (MWA). In recognition of the 1946 film noir, based on the 1939 hardboiled crime novel by Raymond Chandler, directed by Howard Hawks, and starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, the MWA brochure, found here, bestows honorary memberships to Executive Producer Jack L. Warner and actors Bogart and Bacall, and features five short essays lionizing the film and the novel by Clayton Rawson, Ken Crossen, Edward D. Radin, Dorothy Hughes, and Hugh Pentecost in the fold-out. Hard-boiled private eye Philip Marlowe investigates the mysterious circumstances surrounding a wealthy young woman's gambling debts.

Four vintage photographs from the 1933 film, one double weight and sepia, one double weight and black-and-white, and two single-weight and sepia. Based on William Faulkner's 1931 literary potboiler "Sanctuary," about a wealthy southern belle who goes to trial for murdering the violent bootlegger who abducted her and forced her into prostitution. Every bit as controversial as the source material, the film's depiction of sexual violence was graphic and shocking even among films of the era, and, along with the same year's equally sensational "Baby Face," was directly responsible for the stricter enforcement of the Production Code in 1934, bringing the pre-Code era to a close. George Raft, then under contract to Paramount, was assigned the role of the bootlegger, but found the part repulsive and went to battle with the studio in a suit that nearly cost him his career. Unavailable for decades outside of 16mm bootlegs, the film was restored by the Museum of Modern Art in 2011 and screened at the TCM Classic Film Festival, but still awaits a commercial release. Photographs between 9.75 x 7.5 and 8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus overall. Grant US.…
