19th Cent Women Education
One of the Earliest Formal Debates on the Value of Education for Women Concludes that Education is Necessary For All Women and Their Daughters 1827
1827. Philis Mr. Report of the Commission Charged to Examine Memoirs Relative to the Education of Women. Third Subject: Morality. 1827. This 1827 manuscript records one of the earliest sustained formal debates advocating systematic education for women across social classes. Structured as a commission evaluation of submitted memoirs the text advances the argument that education should be universally accessible to women "from the daughter of the Prince to that of the most humble of the subjects" asserting that the "elements of Language and Calculations" are "necessary and indispensable to women in all stations." At a time when formal education for girls was limited and higher education for women virtually nonexistent the manuscript situates female instruction not as ornamental refinement but as moral and civic necessity.<br /> <br /> Philis Mr. Report of the Commission Charged to Examine Memoirs Relative to the Education of Women. Third Subject: Morality. 1827. Folio manuscript in paper boards. 68 pages of handwritten script in black ink. The manuscript is organized around three submitted theses: "The Education Best Adapted to Form A Good Mother of A Family Is That Received at Home"; "It is Well Known That The Bad Education Of Women Does More Harm Than That of Men."; and "To Instruct the Children One Must Enlighten the Mothers." While the framing reflects prevailing assumptions that motherhood constituted women's primary social role the author strategically reverses that premise arguing that education is precisely what "nature formed women to be" capable of fulfilling their duties. Written one year after the opening of the first public high schools for girls in New York and Boston and more than a decade before women would begin earning college degrees the manuscript provides early evidence of reformist thought that linked women's education to broader civic improvement. Boards show wear with light soiling and scattered stains; manuscript evenly toned with occasional minor soiling; text clear and complete. Overall condition very good to good. unknown

[ Victorian women and the legal profession ] [ Sir Richard Harington (1861-1931) of Ridlington, 12th Baronet, judge ]:
Victorian women and the legal profession. Illustrated humorous manuscript valentine poem in the form of a 'Brief for the opinion of Mr Harington' on what would happen if the 'ladies' appeared 'in wig and gown' with 'â€chambers†up in town.'
London. Dated at head 'February 13th. A.D. 1890'. 3pp. 4to. Bifolium. Folded in customary fashion with 'Brief for the opinion of Mr Harington' on the outside of the packet beneath which in another hand: 'Feby 14th. 1890 Richard Harington Esq'. The author's hand is clearly disguised as is usual with valentines the writing being markedly ornate. There are various crude drawings in the margins ranging from images of a barrister and a woman faces of two women one smoking a pipe to small representations of cigar boxes briefs and books. The text of the poem which is unpublished reads: 'I sit me down and take my pen And write to you this line To greet you as in former years. Upon Saint Valentine Another year has rolled away Since February last And think of all those briefs & balls Now reckoned with the past. And may you of the latter have Enough to renovate you And joined with these this year I hope Ten thousand briefs await you. But I must further add – I trust That “Hawky†will have done And not keep you all sitting up Till some time after one! You say some day that ladies will Appear in wig and gown And armed with blue bags & with briefs Have “chambers†up in Town. Its rather sad to think of it What would you poor men do If your briefs went to Mrs. A Instead of going to you The Judge must be a lady too - I'd quite forgotten that But we've no ladies now-a-days To sit as Portia sat And then to think if all the girls Were so Su-per-i-or There'd be no dancing & no fun All would give way to law. No no I'm a conservative And you'll agree with me Let men remain the barristers And women what they be!' Last four lines and the word 'Su-per-i-or' in red ink the rest in black. From the Harington family papers. Sir Richard Harington of Ridlington 12th Baronet was educated at Eton and Christ College Cambridge. Called to the Bar in 1886 he practised as a barrister on the Oxford Circuit before taking up an appointment as a Puisne Judge in the High Court of Justice at Fort William in Bengal in 1899 serving in that capacity until returning home in 1913. In later years he acted as Justice of the Peace and Deputy Lieutenant for Herefordshire. [ London. ] Dated at head 'February 13th. A.D. 1890'. unknown

[ Women Education ]
The Education of Undergraduate Women at Princeton: An Examination of Coordinate Versus Coeducational Patterns.
<p>Princeton New Jersey: Princeton University March 1969 Pale bule printed paper wrappers. . Octavo. With a full-page table comparing educational models. Fading and light foxing to front cover. Very bright and clean throughout. A very good copy of an uncommon item reporting the results of a study on how Princeton University could implement their decision to admit women. A committee of Princeton students faculty and administrators considered five models for incorporating women into the college: 1 "Separate educational institutions joined by a 'treaty' which makes possible some sharing of facilities and faculty"; 2 "Two institutions with separate formal identities but with one faculty identified with the men's college"; 3 "A separate women's residential college or zone within the University"; 4 "A single institution with an established ratio of women to men students but with no separate residential college"; and 5 "A single institution with no established ratio of women to men students." The present item summarizes the characteristics advantages and disadvantages of the five models. Princeton began admitting undergraduate women in the fall of 1969 under the fourth proposed model. The model allowed women to choose between living on campus in designated spaces women-only dorms or women's sections in larger dorms or living off campus and between eating and socializing in communal spaces with men or in their own dorms and private residences. The text reads: "This model avoids any connotations of 'segregation' and thus is attractive on grounds of principle to those who believe it is important that men and women students learn how to know each other simply as 'people'" p. 9.</p> Princeton University,]

[ Women workers ]
Made-Up Saleslady. Gossiping Wash-Lady. The Laundress. Three comic valentines a.k.a. vinegar Valentines or penny dreadfuls.
n.p.: ca. 1895 Three leaves two sized 7" x 10" one sized 6 " x 11 ". . Printed in color with caricatures mocking the appearance and character of three working women. With captions in verse. Some creasing and a few small open tears to edges. Two sheets reinforced with document tape on versos. A few stains to "Made-Up Saleslady." Pencil signatures of Clementine Allen to rectos of "Gossiping Wash-Lady" and "Made-Up Saleslady" plus pencil inscription on verso of the former "To Clementine from Lloyd 1895" and date 1895 on verso of the latter. A very good set of these fragile "vinegar valentines." These insulting valentines commonly referred to as vinegar valentines or penny dreadfuls sharing the nickname with Victorian-era dime novels first appeared in the 1840s and maintained a prominent place in pop culture well into the twentieth century. They were produced from the cheapest paper and were designed to be sent anonymously; the inscriptions in the present set however beg the question of whether Clementine sent a vinegar valentine to Lloyd in return. Vinegar valentines were "designed to caricature the shortcomings of the recipient and encapsulate the spirit of the Victorian era…During the 1920s and 1930s they were very popular among schoolboys who were more than happy to give their cranky teacher their grouchy neighbor and bullish schoolgirls. Every trade or profession was represented in terms far from flattering including politicians…Vinegar valentines reflected the spirit of the times between the late 1800s to 1920s with rising taxes wartime and the women's suffrage movement."

[19th Century Women Physicians] Abell & Priest (photographers)
Two Portraits of Dr. Pauline Root Cabinet Cards
San Francisco: Abell & Priest 1892. Two fine images of pioneering physician Pauline Root dressed in a sari presumably one she wore in Madurai India while working as a doctor for the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions ABCFM. <br /> <br /> Root 1859–1944 graduated from the Women's Medical College in Philadelphia and was the first female doctor to hold many posts throughout her working life. She spent seven or eight years in India establishing a Woman's Hospital in Madurai. She left India in 1891 and visited China and Japan before returning to the West Coast of the United States giving talks on her work to Christian groups along the way. She gave a lecture to the Occidental Board of Foreign Missions in San Francisco on February 3 1892 and these photographs are likely to have been taken at that time. <br /> <br /> After returning to the East Coast Root studied surgery at Cornell obtained licenses to practice in Massachusetts and New York and took a position as the resident physician at Smith College. In the 1920s she taught "social hygiene" sex-ed for the Bureau of Indian Affairs. <br /> <br /> Nineteenth century photographs of Dr. Root and other female physicians are uncommon. Drexel University has two poor condition cabinet cards of Root in Japan a few months before she arrived in San Francisco. Both images are fine with medium contrast sepia tones. The albumen silver prints measure 3-3/4 by 7-7/16 inches on 4-1/4 by 6-7/16 inch mounts. The photographer's imprint is "Abell & Priest Bancroft Building / 723 Market St. S.F. Cal." Both have blank backs with the notation "Dr. Pauline Root" and "India. Abell & Priest unknown

[Abolition Movement – Women Authors] Kemble, Fanny
ALS by the Author and Actor Fanny Kemble to an Editor Regarding the Publication of an Article
London United Kingdom 1800. Single four page letter measuring 4 ½ x 7 inches. Near fine. Frances Anne “Fanny†Kemble 1809–1893 was a British actor writer and later abolitionist. After her initial retirement from acting she married Pierce Mease Butler maternal grandson of American Founding Father Pierce Butler. Butler and Kemble lived in Philadelphia but Butler had been deeded three large plantations—and the people enslaved on them—on Butler Island in Georgia. Kemble finally saw the plantations for herself several years into their marriage and during this time wrote Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation in 1838–1839 which was critical of the conditions of the enslaved people. Butler forbade Kemble to publish the Journal; the two divorced but it was not published until 1863.<br /> <br /> Offered here is a letter from Fanny Kemble to a publisher or newspaper editor about printing her response to a statement in an article about American slavery likely written following her return to London in 1877. Kemble is frustrated about not having received a reply to her initial note to the publisher which was:<br /> <br /> “in consequence of an article which appeared to me extremely likely to the public judgement upon the subject of American slavery – I was extremely anxious to offer some reply to the statement in that article & wrote to you to beg you could tell me whether you would receive & publish such a communication from me . it contained some references to my own private circumstances which I intended for you & no one else.â€<br /> <br /> Of interest to scholars of the abolitionist movement especially women abolitionists. unknown

Cabinet Card Photograph of Gertrude Easton Pictured in Her Maid's Uniform Together with a Later Vernacular Image of Her As an Older Woman
Philadelphia: C.M. Gilbert 1902. Very good. Albumen photograph 5.5 x 4 inches on a cardboard studio mount. Minor surface rubbing dust-soiling and edge wear. A wonderful original photograph of Gertrude Easton dated in March 1902 and produced by the C.M. Gilbert Studio in Philadelphia. In the present photograph Gertrude Easton 1878-1950 is dressed in a domestic servant's uniform. A later vernacular photograph of Easton is also present here and sheds clear light on Easton's work via the manuscript notation on its verso: "Gertrude Easton originally from New Haven Conn went to work for Rebecca & Grellet Collins in Wynwood Pa. at 16 yrs old. Spent later life at Dott & Mort Gibbons Neff." The older photograph here has a small printed sticker on the back belonging to Grellet Newell Collins with his address in Philadelphia. Collins was half-owner of Dill & Collins Paper Company in Philadelphia. An interesting pair of photographs capturing a young African-American domestic worker in her young years and then her later life. C.M. Gilbert unknown
