Women Americana
Three Sisters: An Intimate Photo Album of the Midwest Between World Wars
Women. Photo Album: Three Sisters. Midwest 1918-1927. Oblong octavo. Covers are brown cloth boards held by ties. Oblong octavo 11" x 7" inches. Title "Photographs" in gilt. 230 snapshots in a variety of sizes most 3.5" x 4.5" inches but also 2.25" x 3.5" 1.5" x 2.25" and 7" x 5". Both black and white and sepia in glossy and matte finishes. Very occasionally torn along the fold and minor silvering to a few photos. The life of three sisters growing up in the Midwest is captured with warmth and incredible detail creating a culturally significant document of middle-class family life between the World Wars. The majority are captioned in white pencil or white ink with the name of the person in the photo and a brief description like "Sunday best"; some are a little ironic tone such as "Seeking sunburn" underneath a photo of two of the sisters sweaty and bare armed in a row boat and "No water but our tongues" under a picture of the sisters as little children in bathing suits on their porch pulling silly faces. We follow the women from childhood through early adulthood through their schools and summer camps across suburban Ohio the shores of Michigan and the wooded Ozarks. The private lives of these young girls are revealed to be impish spirited and silly in these intimate photographs; At the same time they were growing up in a period of great change. With the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920 they were the first generation of women to come of age in a time when they could exercise the right to vote. Bumping at corners and a half-inch tear at top of spine otherwise clean. First page separated. A fascinating cultural artifact of a historically significant period for women's rights. unknown books

Women Education
Antique Needlepoint Sampler 1815
Girls' Education Original vintage cross-stitch sampler. 1815. 11.5" x 15" in. Alphabet cross-stitched in capital and lower case letters with decorative embroidered border and information on maker stitched at bottom: "Mary Ruffle October 25 1815 Aged 9". Samplers were valuable parts of girls' education from the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries as it demonstrated both their skill in needlepoint and their achievements in literacy. From the 1800s the very first schools and academies for young women in America had their students create needlepoint pieces with decorative motifs such as verses or the entire alphabet being stitched on the sampler. The parents of these young women proudly displayed their embroideries as showpieces of their daughter's talent and status. In recent years these samplers have become important in museum collections as representations of early American female education. Alphabet "&" numbers 1 through 8 and motif of trees vines flowers and a crown in navy orange pink dark green brown and white thread. C. Toned. Few threads frayed. Very good. unknown books

Women midwives
Four 18th century decrees for Mainz School of Midwifery
Childbirth Midwives were responsible for the safe delivery of the foetus. Their work could be a steady and chosen occupation. Initially there was no formal training or the need to obtain a license but this changed within Europe in the 1700's since some town authorities recognized the need for trained midwives in order to protect the safety of the public. In contrast to the 'norm' of the 15th and 16th centuries midwives were women concerned with public affairs since they were employed by the municipal authorities and were entitled to a salary. They were also paid by their private clients. Hence in a male oriented society midwives -who came from the lower middle class were called to challenge gender divisions. <br/><br/>Four decrees printed in German block lettering related to the Mainz School of Midwifery from 1784-1785. 5 sheets 12 ½ x 7 ½ in. Decrees relate to registration exam protocols and professor approbation's issued by Baron von Frankenstein. Documents contain handwritten notes at bottom. Light scattered foxing and thumb-soiling. Horizontal crease in all sheets. Very good condition. unknown books

Women Academy
Turn of the Century American Boarding School Life Monson Academy Massachusetts Photo Album 1899 to 1901
1899. Monson Academy student photo album circa 1899-1901 documenting coeducational secondary education and student identity at a Massachusetts preparatory institution during a period of expanding academic opportunities for both men and women. The album records individual students through formal portraiture providing evidence of enrollment class affiliation and institutional culture at one of the earliest coeducational academies in the United States. The material supports research on preparatory education gender integration in schooling and the development of academically oriented boarding institutions at the turn of the twentieth century.<br /> <br /> Photo album containing 43 original silver gelatin photographs including 25 cabinet sized portraits and 18 smaller prints primarily consisting of individual bust length student portraits with several group images. Many photographs include handwritten pencil annotations on the verso identifying sitters and class years such as "W. H. Ballard Class '01 M.A." The album is bound in an ornate leather cover with gilt and brown decorative elements and a central cameo portrait with pages arranged to display both larger and smaller format photographs. The images present male and female students in formal studio style compositions reflecting conventions of academic portraiture and documentation of student cohorts.<br /> <br /> Created at the turn of the twentieth century the album situates Monson Academy within broader developments in American education including the growth of coeducational institutions and preparatory training aligned with emerging scientific and technical fields. Founded in 1804 the academy later developed a reputation for preparing students for institutions such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and earlier admitted international students including Yung Wing who became the first Chinese graduate of an American university. The album provides a visual record of student populations within this institutional context documenting the presence of both men and women in a shared academic environment. Light wear to album with minor foxing to pages; photographs clear and well preserved; overall very good. A cohesive photographic record of coeducational preparatory schooling in the United States. unknown

Women at Oxford Admission of Women
Admission of Women to Oxford University- Archive 50 Very Rare Documents 1896
Women at Oxford. Archive of papers recording the great debate between the Association for promoting the Education of Women AEW at Oxford and the faculty and students who opposed their entrance. 1895-1896. Total of 50 separate documents ranging from printed single page letters through bound booklets. The majority of these documents are known to exist only in one single additional copy held by the University of Oxford; and several of the papers are not noted to be included even within Oxford's collection as per OCLC worldcat. <br/><br/> This collection of papers is ripe for scholarly research. Forming a cohesive archive of 50 documents it includes synopses of the contents and resolution of meetings of the AEW arguments concerning various aspects of the question of inclusion of women at Oxford and advice for members concerning upcoming resolutions put to vote. The AEW was founded in 1873 to gain the full educational enfranchisement of women at Oxford who had actually been attending classes in small numbers by special permission since 1866. Despite vigorous support for the cause Oxford maintained as nearly the last hold-out against coeducation among British Universities not allowing women to gain the full B.A. degree until 1920. Some documents of the archive include "The Due Recognition of Women by the University of Oxford" 1896; "A Brief History of the Proposal to Admit Women to Degrees at Cambridge in 1887-8" by Thomas Case 1896; "The Value of a Genuine Diploma"; and "The B.A. Degree for Women." Full list available upon request. Individual pages or booklets sizes vary. Some hole-punched a few corner tears light edge soiling and toning. Some stamped with circular stamp "Board of Education Library"; most with numerical markers in red to upper right corner of documents. All in good condition and clearly legible. Full of sagacity and wit this archive evidences the reasoned support of women's right to the diploma over twenty years before it was finally granted.<br/> <br/>A partial List of Publications and some OCLC Worldcat search results: "most" are held only at Oxford University and no other copies at any institutions or library worldwide. 4 items had no copies at any Liabraries as per OCLC not even Oxford.
