Collection of 3 vintage studio still photographs from the 1968 film. From the library of Christopher C. Geest, with his stamp on the verso of each photograph. Based on John Haase's 1966 novel, "Me and the Arch Kook Petulia," about newlywed San Francisco socialite Petulia Danner (Christie), who is determined to have an affair wit…h physician Dr. Archie Bollen (Scott). Petulia's pursuit of Archie is relentless, even as he dates another woman, and culminates in a curious twist. The film makes use of various time jumps, but even with an uneven plot still remains an overlooked gem of 1960s New Hollywood. The Grateful Dead and Big Brother and the Holding Company lend tunes for the soundtrack. 8 x 10 inches. Fine.

Willoughby traveled from Zanzibar to the borders of the Masai. One of the first books to discuss the hunting of game and the animals present in this region of Africa. Willoughby, on leave, met his friend Sir Robert Harvey and the two set out for virgin land with Mombassa being the starting point for the journey inland from the coast to the forest of Taveta.virgin ground in the plains surrounding the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, an isolated and giant mountain on the borders of the warlike Masai. They had a reliable following and a lead man, a Maltese who had proved his eminent fitness during his term of service to Mr. J. Thomson, the well known explorer of Masai-land. A journey of two hundred fifty miles from the coast and within ten miles of the base of Mount Kilima-njaro. Here, they would set up a base camp from which to journey out in search of animals of the area.
