Description:
Los Angeles: Bridgers-Robertson-Schmidt Defense Committee, 1950. Ink notation on address side (unaddressed), otherwise fine. Postcard, 7-1/4 x 5 in., printed on both sides. Announcement of a mass-rally at LA's Olympic Auditorium that featured appearances of Harry Bridges and his two co-defendants, along with their legal team of Vincent Hallinan, James Martin MacInnis and Robert W. Kenny. A prominent and charismatic labor leader as head of the longshoreman's union, the Australian-born Harry Bridges was prosecuted and convicted under the notorious Smith Act for having denied on his naturalization application having ever been a member of the Communist Party. Fellow unionists J.R. Robertson and Henry Schmidt acted as character witnesses for Bridges and were convicted criminal fraud and conspiracy, verdicts that were eventually overturned in 1953. The Bridges case became one of the most high-profile of the red-scare era.

Description:
Vienna. -. Folded, and somewhat rumpled.. One page, approx. 9 X 11-1/2 in. Secretarial letter signed by Laube, as director of the Vienna Stadttheater, returning two plays the Karpeles had submitted for consideration. Laube adds a lengthy postscript offering encouragment to Karpeles and praising his dramatic efforts. Karpeles would become well-known as a critic and a scholar of Heinrich Heine, and never enjoyed much success as a dramatist. Heinrich Laube (1806-1884) was a highly successful writer and a member of the radical "Junges Deutschland" movement in the 1830s. By 1848 he was one of the best-known playwrights in Germany and he was elected to the Frankfurter Nationalversammlung, but resigned to take up his post as director of the Burgtheater in Vienna. Later, after his retirement, he would found the Stadttheater.
