http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/79888627

A collection of film footage, photographic material, audiotracks, and correspondence recording the cinematographic collaborations and personal friendship of Dadaist filmmaker Hans Richter and photographer Arnold Eagle. The collection documents several of Richter's post-World War II film productions, including: Dreams that money can buy, 8 x 8, Chesscetera, Dadascope, and Richter's incomplete animation film based upon a Kasimir Malevich script of 1927. Correspondence, film scripts, story boards, color film footage and sound tracks highlight Eagle's repeated attempts to complete the Malevich animation project, and outline the difficulties confronted in the film's production and its unfinished state.
