1911Best.-Nr. 169931911. Photo album compiled by a female student at Wellesley College between 1911 and 1919 documents women's higher education collegiate ritual and professional transition into teaching during the Progressive Era. The album traces the compiler's path from secondary schooling through her collegiate years and into her early career as an educator offering sustained visual evidence of female academic community at a time when women's access to advanced scientific and liberal education was expanding but remained institutionally distinct. Founded in 1870 Wellesley College had by the early twentieth century established itself as a leading center for women's study particularly in the sciences employing more female scientists than any other American institution of higher education. The photographs record campus architecture traditions intellectual life and female peer networks situating the album within the broader history of women's collegiate culture and professionalization in the years immediately preceding and during the First World War. Album contains 143 original silver gelatin print photographs dating from 1911 to 1919 mounted on approximately 100 pages within original black cloth boards measuring 9 x 12 inches; photographs range in size from approximately 2 x 3 inches to 4 x 9.5 inches. Numerous images depict Wellesley College campus scenes including Lake Waban and the chapel student residences labeled "Wellesley 1911-1912" and groups of students identified as "Students." Candid captions document daily academic life: six women bundled in hats and coats captioned "Off for math exam" students reading outdoors communal meals and informal portraits labeled with nicknames such as "Chub" "Selina" "Honey" and "Marion." Five photographs record the May Day 1912 "Senior Hoop Rolling" tradition. Additional academic images include interiors labeled "Drawing Room" "Mr. Wilson's Room" "Assembly Room" "Physics Lab" and "Library" at "M.H.S." as well as a group of sixteen boys wearing "M" shirts with three coaches and a trophy banner reading "OCIAA Relay Race 1912." Other collegiate references include "Harmony Hall" with caption "Inmates of H.H. 1913" and two large group photographs of women in white dresses before a banner reading "ETA Clionian" one dated 1914 associated with the teachers' college at New Paltz. Geographic excursions are documented through images labeled Frontenac Point Minnewaska Mohonk Yankee Lake in upstate New York and Digby Nova Scotia. Later photographs depict the compiler's transition into teaching with groups of children labeled "Primary" and "Intermediates" a staged school production featuring children in Pilgrim costumes and a building identified as "Quassaick Hall." Spanning the years 1911 to 1919 the album bridges the final prewar era of Progressive reform and the wartime transformation of American educational institutions. The visual record emphasizes female intellectual labor in mathematics and science campus ritual sororal association and the socially sanctioned pathway from collegiate training to professional teaching. Wellesley's prominence in scientific instruction for women situates the album within broader developments in women's access to laboratory education and academic employment. The inclusion of regional travel and teacher-training imagery further contextualizes the educational mobility of middle-class women in the northeastern United States. One page detached but present; minor handling wear to boards; photographs generally clear with strong contrast; overall very good condition. A cohesive and expansive visual archive documenting women's higher education peer culture and professional formation in the early twentieth century. unknown

1879Best.-Nr. 422485Washington D.C. 1879. Very Good. Autograph Letter Signed by John Wesley Powell Director of the Bureau of Ethnology in Washington D.C. together with an accompanying photograph which he sent in 1880 to John S. Billings a surgeon and a statistician on medicine in the U.S. Army. The one page letter is written on "Smithsonian Institution Bureau of Ethnology" letterhead dated: "Ap. 27" 1880 and is addressed at the bottom to "Dr. John S. Billings Surgeon U.S.A. Army Medical Museum." Some water staining to the edges and related blurring to the manuscript text still legible and three-inch tear repaired with tape on the verso good only. The Albumen Print measures 9 ½ x 12 inches laid down on a cardboard mount 11 x 16". Contemporary manuscript caption in ink on the bottom margin of the mount: "3824 Photo. Tailed man" and on the back in French which identifies the photograph as a being from the Society of Anthropology in Berlin. Dated "Oct. 18" with "1879" inserted in pencil. Light soiling and toning to the mount with a tear to the top margin of the mount very good. The photograph of a tailed man which Powell takes "pleasure in sending" to Billings is an enlargement of the photo taken in 1879 by Surgeon-General Bernhard Ornstein chief physician of the Greek army. The original photo sent to the Berlin Anthropological Society sparked a decade-long debate about whether such protuberances were "atavistic tails" or "pathological protuberances." Powell was a celebrated naturalist and explorer who despite losing an arm in the Civil War led the first known passage through the Grand Canyon in 1869. When Congress created the Bureau of Ethnology in 1879 Powell was named its first director a post he held until his death. John Shaw Billings is best known as the modernizer of the Surgeon General's Library the nation's first comprehensive library for medicine. He also started Index Medicus a monthly guide to contemporary medicine that ran until his retirement at the Medical Museum and Library. A nice association. unknown

This charming book presents an important discovery - a previously undocumented album titled Ipswich Days that comprises forty-one cyanotypes that Dow produced in 1899. Dedicated to his poet-friend Everett Stanley Hubbard "Ipswich Days" offers a fresh new look at Dow's attention to the abstract aspects of form colour and cropping in the creation of his designs while documenting his deep personal attachment to his rural and historic hometown. "Ipswich Days" analyzes this album and its significance in the artist's career. Each of the images depicting Ipswich's clam shanties marshes farms people trees flowers and boats alike is handsomely reproduced and reflects the beauty that Dow saw and uniquely interpreted in this quintessentially New England town. . 2008. 0300132913 .
