1925réf. 5916Cleveland: Interstate School of Commerce 1925. Folded brochure. Very good . One folded brochure which unfolds to the size of a poster about 3.75" x 9" folded; 15" x 27" unfolded. In very good or better condition with old folds and trivial foxing at the fore-edge of the front wrap. Fantastic ephemeral document which promotes the Interstate School of Commerce a kind of private vocational school. When fully unfolded a collage of more than 100 recent graduates appears superimposed on the buildig that houses the school. Most interestingly the school is co-educational and seems to make very little distinction between its male and female students. At the first stage of unfolding the following is printed: "The Field of Woman's Endeavor is an Ever Widening One." This brochure was meant to be mailed although this example never was. There are no separate listings for this document in OCLC and we presume it to be scarce. Interstate School of Commerce unknown
