Note: Max Rosenthal (born in Turck, Kingdom of Poland, 23 November 1833; died 8 August 1918) was a Polish-American painter, lithographer, draftsman and etcher. In 1847 he went to Paris, where he studied lithography, drawing, and painting with M. Thurwanger, with whom he came to Philadelphia in 1849, and completed his studies. He made the chromolithographic plates for what is believed to be the first fully illustrated book by this process in the United States, “Wild Scenes and Wild Hunters.” In 1854 he drew and lithographed an interior view of the old Masonic temple in Philadelphia, the plate being 22 by 25 inches, the largest chromolithograph that had been made in the country up to that time. He designed and executed the illustrations for various works, and during the Civil War followed the Army of the Potomac, and drew every camp, up to the Battle of Gettysburg. These drawings he reproduced at the time. Up to 1884 he did miscellaneous works, including about 200 lithographs of distinguished Americans. After 1884 he turned his attention to etching, and executed over 150 portraits of eminent Americans and British officers. He was a member of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and one of the founders of the Sketch Club. His son, Albert (born in Philadelphia, 30 January 1863) was also a noted artist.

La Difesa Della Razza, or The Defense of the Race, was a bi-weekly magazine run by Telesio Hinton, ran from 5 August 1938 to 20 June 1943. It was the main medium through which Italian fascist racial policies were communicated to the public.
The magazine appears on the scene with powerful financial and political support, accompanied by a relentless campaign. In particular, Education Minister Bottai delivered a ministerial circular dated 6 August 1938 to all university presidents and directors of schools in Italy, calling for all educational institutions to actively contribute to the diffusion of the journal and to assimilate its contents into school curriculum. The magazine incessantly repeated its stereotypes of racism, cloaked in attempted scientific authority.
In the climate of fascist Italy La Difesa Della Razza was the first major magazine of the anti-racial revival and was soon joined by other publications. Each of them specialized on a particular aspect of racist propaganda to reach the same conclusions. If La Difesa Della Razza could not convince most of the Italians of the validity of its extremist view, the fact remains that it helped create (or strengthen) a climate of deep distrust and dislike for Jews, Africans, gypsies, mestizos, the mentally ill, and all those who were presented as a threat to the supposed purity of the Italian race, without which the regime could not act without hindrance. A very rare magazine, I have 13 issues in total. B
