Telhados do Mundo: Les Maledictus Sound - (1968)
Classic and rare LP from Les Maledictus Sound on the awesome Telhados do Mundo blog. The first track "Kriminal Theme" was featured on dusty fingers #8 comp. from Forced Exposure:
"Originally released in 1968, this is one of the most bizarre records ever released and one of the most sought after titles on the collectors' market. The Maledictus Sound are to instrumental rock what Frankenstein was to science... a laboratory monster... a strange creature assembled from a mish-mash of diverse musical sounds... psychedelic pop, romantic ballads, musical tongue-in-cheek, drugged out chipmunks, near-delirium sound effects, horror movie screamadelia and a mega-twisted '60s vibe... eclectic, epileptic... for Jello Biafra this is 'some of the most screaming exotica-psych I've ever heard in my life.'"

Still from "Lancelot du Lac" (1974)
Robert Bresson lenses a haunting version of the Camelot legend that begins as the Knights of the Round Table return from their fruitless search for the Holy Grail. Lancelot is reunited with Guinevere, who begs him to become her lover. Convinced his unchaste thoughts are the reason he hasn't found the Grail, Lancelot refuses, vowing to continue the quest. But when jealous Mordred spurs rebellion, Lancelot decides to remain in Camelot and fight.

Not only was The Electric Company a hugely successful show aimed at improving kid's reading skills, with a stellar cast including Bill Cosby, Morgan Freeman, and Rita Moreno, psychedelic early video effects, and funky music, but it was a program in love with letters. Every episode was filled with various type and lettering, and I believe it planted a seed in my mind that would flourish years later as a love of lettering and found typography. Enjoy!

Palmer Cox (April 28, 1840–July 24, 1924) was a Canadian-born artist and freemason[1], best known for his series of humorous verse cartoons about the mischievous but kindhearted Brownies. The cartoons were published in several books, such as The Brownies, Their Book (1887). Due to the popularity of Cox's Brownies, one of the first popular handheld cameras was named after them, the Eastman Kodak Brownie camera. (from wikipedia)

Reverend W. S. Harris (1865- ?)
William Shuler Harris is the author of 7 books which have become collectible less for their religious content than their usual presentation. Unlike the vast majority most religious books written for the general public of his day, Harris offered books whose covers alone captured the attention of the potential reader. Venturing beyond the striking cover graphics, the reader found unusual allegorical illustrations, moral & religious education presented through parables, allegories, and other appealing literary devices.

Odds series 1: Alexis Vincent Charles Berbiguer de Terre Neuve du Thyme
Odds series 1: Alexis Vincent Charles Berbiguer de Terre Neuve du Thyme
Originally uploaded by pantufla.
Alexis-Vincent-Charles Berbiguier de Terre-Neuve du Thym, (1765 - December 3, 1851), was a French author and demonologist who may have been suffering from psychosis. He was born, and died, in Carpentras in the south of France, and was the heir to an estate, which he used to finance the publication of his unusual memoirs. He is remembered chiefly for his lengthy biography, Les farfadets ou Tous les démons ne sont pas de l'autre monde ("The Imps; or, All the demons are not from the other world"), originally published in three volumes between 1818 and 1820. The book was handsomely illustrated by a series of lithographs whose originals were sketched by Berbiguier himself.
This autobiography recounts Berbiguier's life long struggle with farfadets, "imps" or "goblins". He relates that these imps harassed him persistently ever since his unfortunate encounter with two "sibyls", or fortune tellers, whom he consulted in an idle moment in his youth. For this sin, he was delivered into the hands of impish tormentors. The imps continued to follow Berbiguier through several lengthy stays in Avignon and Paris. The chief imp among his tormentors was named Rhotomago; Rhotomago's immediate superior was Beelzebub himself. He alleged that he received, and answered, written correspondence from all of these Hellish dignitaries.
By research and experiment Berbiguier determined a number of herbal and other remedies that had the power to keep the imps in check. He wrote his book, he relates, to reveal his struggles and his methods to the world. In an eloquent if presumptuous dedication, he addresses himself to:
A TOUS LES EMPEREURS, ROIS, PRINCES, SOUVERAINS DES QUATRES PARTIES DU MONDE
Sires,
Pères des peuples, qui représentez sur la terre de Dieu de Paix et de consolation, qui est dans le ciel, réunissez vos efforts aux miens pour détruire l'influence des Démons, Sorciers et Farfadets, qui désolent les malheureux habitants de vos Etats. Vous voyez à vos pieds le plus infortuné des hommes; les tourments auxquels je suis en lutte depuis plus de vingt-trois ans sont les plus beaux titres que je puisse avoir à un de vos regards paternels.
Ah ! Il y a déjà longtemps que les persécutions diaboliques des Farfadets auraient eu un terme sur la terre, si quelqu'un de vos sujets avait eu le courage de vous les dévoiler. C'est pour les démasquer que je vous dédie mon ouvrage; vous ne serez pas insensibles à mes tourments, vous les ferez cesser dès qu'ils vous seront connus.
-
- TO ALL THE EMPERORS, KINGS, PRINCES, AND SOVEREIGNS OF THE FOUR PARTS OF THE WORLD
-
- Milords,
- Fathers of nations, you who represent the heavenly God of peace and consolation on earth, unite your efforts to my own to destroy the power of Demons, Witches, and Imps, that devastate the unhappy dwellers of your countries. You see at your feet the most unfortunate of men; the torments with which I have struggled for these twenty-five years are the best titles that I can bear before your paternal gaze.
- Ah! The diabolical persecutions of the Imps would have long since been ended on Earth, had one of your subjects had the courage to reveal them to you. It is in order to unmask them that I have dedicated my work to you, that you may not be heedless to my torments, and that you will work to end them now that they are known to you.
The autobiography relates Berbiguier's struggles with the imps. He was able to capture some of them, and confine them in bottles. Sulphur and thyme were two odours he found were effective to repel them. The book tells of an adventure he had with firefighters during a sojourn in Paris, where he attracted the alarmed notice of neighbours by burning sulphur to keep the imps at bay. Notwithstanding his efforts, the imps continued to tempt and torment him. The title de Terre-Neuve du Thym was self-bestowed; it means "of the New World of Thyme," and shows his hope that revealing his methods will renew the world and purge it of impish influences. He also bestowed upon himself the style Le Fléau des Farfadets, "the Scourge of the Imps."

Odds series 2: "General" Daniel Pratt Jr., "The Great American Traveler"
Originally uploaded by pantufla.
"General” Daniel Pratt, Jr. (born 11 April 1809 in Prattville, Chelsea, Massachusetts; died 21 June 1887 in Boston) was an American itinerant speaker, author, performance-artist, eccentric, and poet.
Trained as a carpenter, Pratt abandoned this craft and instead spent his time in wandering about the country doing freelance lecturing. He claimed to have walked over 200,000 miles, from Maine to the Dakotas, visiting 27 states and 16 Indian tribes.[1] He was widely known as the “Great American Traveler,” which was how he referred to himself in his characteristic disdain for modesty. His visits to American colleges came to be regarded by the students almost as a regular feature of campus life.[2]
He was often an appreciated and honored guest and speaker, though usually met with tongue-in-cheek praise. At times, though, his welcome came pre-worn-out, as when he rushed in on Leonard Bacon as he was entertaining guests at home, shook his hand and announced expectantly, “I, Sir, am no less a man than Daniel Pratt — Daniel Pratt, Sir, the great American traveler!” Dr. Bacon, unimpressed, replied, “All right — Travel!”[3]
Pratt was a prolific and generous generator of ideas, but in spite of this was heard to complain that “it was utterly impossible for him to talk fast enough to get out his ideas, so rapidly did they grow in his fertile brain.”[4]
