‎Women; Suffrage; Victoria Woodhull & Emily Faithful‎

‎'The Anvil'. Woman's Rights article in Dartmouth College newspaper‎

‎Hanover NH: Dartmouth Press 1873. Vol. I No. 1. Good overall. First issue of the Dartmouth newspaper which ran for only the year 1873-1874 with an article supporting women's suffrage but attacking Victoria Woodhull titled "A Hindrance and a Snare" accompanied with 2 additional numbers No's. 12 & 19. There is also an article about suffragette Emily Faithful. The editor argues in favor of the notion that "women may soon be allowed to go to the ballot box without being arrested and imprisoned therefor" and reasons that the movement and change should be "allowed to grow" rather than "to thrust it prematurely upon an unwilling people". This change by the way took another 46 before the constitutional amendment extending the right of suffrage to women was approved. Next however the editor quickly moves on to single out and attack Victoria Woodhull a leader of the American women's suffrage movement who had just run for president as the candidate for the Equal Rights Party. 'The Anvil' denies that Woodhull is a leader of the movement states that she "sounded her own trumpet" has no followers that she is "her own worst enemy" and "a garrulous bundle of absurdities". Woodhull is viciously badmouthed and called irrelevant: "It is certainly a little singular that so slight a snag can entangle so large a ship. We do not anticipate that this woman will serve as any permanent barrier to the progress of the suffrage movement ." Woodhull is dismissed as insane: "We do not regard her as responsible for her own actions" and is compared to Mrs. Sherman "the murderess". Lydia Sherman was a serial killer who poisoned 3 husbands and 8 children 6 of whom were her own. Vol. I No. 1 p5. Interestingly the very next article is one praising Miss Emily Faithful sic an English women's rights activist and publisher and her "hearty reception on this side of the water". ."she has won the hearts of all classes in England and . gained for herself many friends among the best people in America". A New York reception held by the city's working women for Faithfull is recorded. Emily Faithfull 1835 - 1895 established a female run printing press The Victoria Press which published the feminist 'English Woman's Journal 1860-1866. Many newspaper readers and editors of the day were offended by Woodhull's 1872 publishing of a graphic account in her paper 'Woodhull & Claflin's Weekly' of the alleged adulterous affair of Henry Ward Beecher with parishioner Elizabeth Tilton which had resulted in Woodhull's arrest on obscenity charges. Woodhull reported on this well known and nationally covered scandal as part of her campaign against society's acceptance of influential married men having mistresses on the side. She was duly punished for it. 'The Anvil' was the personal venture of a talented graduate of Dartmouth 1873 Fred A.

‎WOMEN; WORLD WAR II.‎

‎Original manuscript notebook.‎

‎Ramsgate: April 1942 - March 1943. Unique manuscript account of the friendship and exploits of six young women during the Second World War Small quarto pp. 70 230 x 180 mm. Commercial lined notebook of green cloth-backed paper-covered boards green endpapers 31 pages neatly written in English in black ink 4 pages in green ink "Teddy Bears Picnic" song typed on blue paper and pasted in poster drawn in blue red and black paint tipped-in to rear pastedown. Illustrated with original ink and watercolour drawings 10 of which are full-page. A little wear to spine ends front hinge tender split to lower part of gutter at first page unused final pages neatly excised. In very good condition. A poignant manuscript notebook amusingly illustrated recording the friendship and lively exploits of a group of six young women from Ramsgate during the Second World War. The group who named themselves "the Order of Little Bears" consisted of Maud Isabella Milgate the primary author of this manuscript her sister Blanche Adelaide Milgate "Bibs" and their friends Rose Anne James Margaret Hessie Vince "Meg" Elsie May Smith "Smut" and Dorothy Eccleston Back "Pat" who drew the illustrations. The notebook covers the creation of the "Order" and how they created entertainment for themselves against the constant backdrop of the war bombing raids and their work. Opening on 7 April 1942 at Easter the six head out for their first picnic of the year on Easter Monday: "we viewed with horror the devastation caused by the bombs on Sturry and were glad to take ourselves up into the woods". Rose a teacher is based in Stafford for most of the year where she finds life very dull and relies on the girls for most of her amusement. The Milgate sisters work in a shop owned by the father their mother died two years prior in 1940. Smut leaves Ramsgate to train with the WAAF from which she returns on leave intermittently and the girls throw her a farewell party at which they get rather merry: in the centre of the table was a "glass bowl. in which floated two pink roses. Pat insisted on giving these roses frequent drops of wine. She said she was toasting Rose who was of course in Stafford". Two of them are reprimanded by policeman on their way home from one of their "binges" who sternly "informed them that singing in the street after 10.30pm is not allowed ladies!" In the summer of 1942 the four remaining in Ramsgate acquire an allotment: "this walled in garden gave us sunny recreation among sylvan surroundings and sea breezes. I did not care whether the allotment grew potatoes or dandelions". The girls go to visit Smut who is rather miserable in her WAAF posting to take her for a river outing and do some country dancing in the lanes while waiting for her: "not even life in a bombed town. can damp the vivid life in some people especially if those people happen to be little bears and to see those four dancing in the middle of the road that glorious summer day in August is something I shall not soon forget. the scene was more reminiscent of Merrie England than of bomb shattered Britain". On their return to the station the girls get drenched in a sudden shower and hang their wet clothes from the luggage rack to dry "the compartment soon looked like a gipsy encampment so much so that a man attempting to enter our carriage at a wayside station gave one look at our wet belongings exclaimed 'Good Lord!' and shut the door again quickly!". Towards the end of the summer they celebrate Rose's homecoming after she is recalled to Ramsgate to teach at the local school and Maud's birthday "however the company had hangovers the next morning and drank tea and smoked cigarettes while lolling on my bed in an attempt to pull themselves together". Rose clears up her bombed-out house in Ramsgate and the "Bears" hold a house-warming party for her new home - Rose adds to the notebook an amusing account in verse of the raucous evening. Smut has her confirmation on 17 December 1942 by the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr William Temple: "not even the wailing of the siren nor the broken bomb shattered window above the quiet altar could destroy the illusion of peace that age-old ceremony inspired. two things he said remain in my mind. One was that one of God's best gifts was friendship and we were not sufficiently thankful to God for our friends"; a news clipping about the Archbishop's visit is pasted in. The year concludes with the staging of a Little Bears Variety Show in their local church hall at Holy Trinity on 18 December worked up from a number of items that "we had done for our own amusement to keep our minds off raids": the girls sang performed skits and played the violin piano mandolin and accordion. A hand-drawn poster for the night is included at the rear of the notebook and a newspaper clipping on the evening is pasted in. Pat's brother Wilfred is reported killed just before Christmas in Libya and Maud writes that "such however was Mrs Back's fortitude that she did not allow her personal grief to intrude upon the pleasures of Christmas". The account finishes at March 1943 with a brief report on the first part of the year. Loosely inserted is a sheet of paper in manuscript proposing the creation of associates of the "Order" 13 months after its creation. Ramsgate: hardcover‎

‎Durchgehend mit meist farbigen Abbildungen versehen. Tom Wood's (*1951) fotografische Arbeiten zeichnen sich durch einen direkten, offenen Blick auf seine Lebensumwelt aus. Seine oft langjährigen Projekte umkreisen den Alltag der Menschen, das klassische Porträt, Situationen auf der Straße und Zuhause, in den letzten Jahren auch Landschaften. Wood's Stil lässt sich als sozialdokumentarisch beschreiben, geht aber keinem festen Konzept nach. Seine Bilder entstehen spontan und sind unkonventionell komponiert. In den Serien erkennt man eine ehrliche und humorvolle Haltung des Fotografen, die bei aller Konfrontation nie den Respekt vor seinem Gegenüber verliert. In den letzten Jahren kombiniert er zunehmend Aufnahmen von Menschen aus dem persönlichen Umfeld mit welchen aus anderen Kontexten. Wood arbeitet mit einer Kleinbildkamera im 35-mm-Format, benutzte aber auch Mittel- und Großformatkameras für Porträts. Bis Ende der 1980er Jahre fotografierte er meist auf Schwarz/Weiss-Negativfilm, danach auf Farbnegativfilm. Seit ein paar Jahren widmet er sich auch stärker der Landschaft und nimmt diese mit einer Panoramakamera auf. Seine Fotografien, die mit Titel, Ort und Jahreszahl aufgelistet sind, präsentiert er in Ausstellungen und Fotobüchern, wobei er auch immer wieder alte und neue Bilder aus dem Archiv heraus kombiniert (Wikipedia).‎
