Women Employment Automobile
Independence through Motor Cars in the Age of Woman Suffrage
Early Women's Liberation and the Automobile in the Age of Suffrage. Collection of 4 pieces tracing the new path to independence gained by women with the invention of the automobile. Coming of age at the same time as the suffrage movement was reaching full swing the new technology offered by the automobile allowed women not only a newfound sense of freedom but the ability to travel unimpeded to demonstrate mastery of a new technology and even opened careers in mobility. This collection's vintage pieces include rare printed material on women and the automobile a signed license letters and photos from women who drove right over gender barriers explore the new world opening to women in the 20th century. <br/><br/>Leading up to the 20th century automobiles became a symbol of women's increasing social mobility and financial independence. Car makers and dealers realized that a significant number of women wanted and were capable of purchasing their own cars; and so they developed vehicles and marketing campaigns specifically for the female population. This collection's early 1913 brochure "To the American Woman" represents this trend and it declares that "the automobile . is of the greatest use to the woman.because of the importance of her work a woman's need for saving time and effort is imperative." The car saved wives and mothers time as they executed familial duties. It also provided some single women with independent incomes. As young women purchased their own vehicles some used the technology to support themselves by becoming mechanics and chauffeurs. These women are represented in this collection by a 1923 "Motor Magazine" with coverage on women car owners a vintage photo of the first woman to motor from Africa to London and an original 1929 Professional Chauffeur's License for Vivian Pickard. Pioneering women like those in this collection overcame gender barriers by increasing their mobility taking advantage of opportunities for mechanical and technical education thus opening new possibilities for women in transportation technology. unknown books

No other copies in institutional or library collection in the US according to OCLC Worldcat. "The daughter may may marry but her husband may die.or be too poor to support her and her children; let her at least be trained beforehand to some possible way of getting her bread." Bessie Rayner Parkes one of the most prominent women's rights activist of her day writes that girls and young women must receive an education or a useful trade in the same way that boys do. "We lay it down as a primary social law conceded by all political economists that a father ought to provide for all his children or give them the means of providing for themselves." She emphasizes how common it is for middle-class women to join the workforce: "Probably every person present has a female relative or intimate friend whom trade-failure the exigencies of a numerous household or the early death of husband or father has compelled to this course; it is the experience of every family." An argument for the importance of skilled and educated women in the work force their place in the market and the challenges that they faced. Repairs to top right corner and right edge of page 1.

Bill for Limiting Child workers Hours in Factories 1873
Mr. Mundella's Bill for Limiting the Hours of Labour in Factories. Observations of the Employers upon the Speech of Mr. Mundella M.P. made in the House of Commons U.K on Wednesday the 11th of June 1873. Manchester: John Heywood Excelsior Printing Works 1873. 32 pages. First edition. 8 1/4 x 5 in. Original paper wrappers. Includes three data tables in appendix regarding worker mortality rates. Liberal Party politician A.J. Mundella famous for his defense of safety bills and public education for all children speaks on unsafe working conditions and "shameful treatment" of laborers; he cites high mortality rates for women and child workers and includes mortality rate information on newborn infants who suffered neglect when their mothers were forced to return to work days after giving birth: "the return of the mother to the mill was a sentence of death on the child." In this document factory owners counter the speech given by Mundella cite statistics that claim quality of life is improving for these factory workers; while marginal gains had been made in recent decades factory labor was still very dangerous and politicians like Mundella ensured the health and safety for thousands of the least represented workers in England.

Women Film Unsell Eve Curtis Edward
Portrait of Eve Unsell
Los Angeles: Edward Curtis 1927. Silver Gelatin Print 5 x 7 inches with Curtis's Biltmore Hotel address and Unsell's name to verso. Signed by Curtis in ink on recto. Excellent. Eve Unsell was a highly prolific scenarist who wrote for over 95 films during her active period from 1914 to 1933. She first trained for the Kansas City Post before spending a year at Emerson College. Unsell impressed the theatrical agent Beatrice deMille with one of her short stories. Hired by deMille as a play reader Unsell learned the art of plot construction while reading plays. She met David Belasco through deMille and after a short career performing turned her career to writing by 1913. She sold two several scenarios to Pathes Freres and Kalem getting her big break in 1914 when Kalem produced Unsell's scenario The Pawnbroker's Daughter. She would go on to enjoy a lengthy career as a writer oscillating between freelance and contract work. She wrote under her own name and also used the pseudonym Oliver W. Geoffreys as her name E. M. Unsell as was common for women screenwriters at the time. Edward Curtis best known for his work photographing American Indians moved to Los Angeles in 1919 with his daughter Beth following a divorce. He opened a studio at the Biltmore Hotel. To finance his field work Curtis worked for Cecil B. DeMille as a still photographer and cameraman. Curtis lived off and on in Los Angeles until his death in 1952 leaving in 1927 to complete the final volume of his North American Indian series. At some point probably in the early 1920s whether through the DeMille friend circle or elsewhere Unsell had her picture taken by Curtis in his Biltmore Hotel studio. The image shows Unsell in the customary style of the time with Curtis's name etched into the negative. Near fine condition overall with a few slight indentations. Overall a wonderful and scarce image showing an important figure in Hollywood. Edward Curtis unknown

Eve Unsell was a highly prolific scenarist who wrote for over 95 films during her active period from 1914 to 1933. She first trained for the Kansas City Post before spending a year at Emerson College. Unsell impressed the theatrical agent Beatrice deMille with one of her short stories. Hired by deMille as a play reader Unsell learned the art of plot construction while reading plays. She met David Belasco through deMille and after a short career performing turned her career to writing by 1913. She sold two several scenarios to Pathes Freres and Kalem getting her big break in 1914 when Kalem produced Unsell's scenario The Pawnbroker's Daughter. She would go on to enjoy a lengthy career as a writer oscillating between freelance and contract work. She wrote under her own name and also used the pseudonym Oliver W. Geoffreys as her name E. M. Unsell as was common for women screenwriters at the time. <br /> <br /> Edward Curtis best known for his work photographing American Indians moved to Los Angeles in 1919 with his daughter Beth following a divorce. He opened a studio at the Biltmore Hotel. To finance his field work Curtis worked for Cecil B. DeMille as a still photographer and cameraman. Curtis lived off and on in Los Angeles until his death in 1952 leaving in 1927 to complete the final volume of his North American Indian series. At some point probably in the early 1920s whether through the DeMille friend circle or elsewhere Unsell had her picture taken by Curtis in his Biltmore Hotel studio. The image shows Unsell in the customary style of the time with Curtis's name etched into the negative. Near fine condition overall with a few slight indentations. Overall a wonderful and scarce image showing an important figure in Hollywood. Edward Curtis unknown books
