1920réf. 64634Minneapolis MN & Chicago IL: Washburn-Crosby Co. Edwards & Deutsch Lithographing Co. ca. 1920. Two large colour lithograph linen-backed posters sized 28 x 41 in. with the first illustrating the 24 steps with illustrations and text in green black & red green & red borders and lettering; 2nd cutaway image of wheat kernel on deep blue background minor edgewear dustsoiling to fore-edges some minor creasing & wear still a VG pair of original posters. First editions thus of these marvelous colour lithograph advertising and education posters detailing the Gold Medal Flour Milling process by the Washburn-Crosby Co. mills during the Progressive Era. Washburn-Crosby Co. had been founded in the 19th-Century and after inventing the middlings purifier for producing high quality flour from the Spring wheat grown in Minnesota and the Dakotas quickly expanded. Washburn-Crosby also introduced the gradual reduction process through pulverizing porcelain chilled iron or steel rollers to gradually pulverize the purified middlings and integrate the gluten with starch and finally they installed the exhaust system of William de la Barre to reduce the risk of explostions. A smaller version of this cutaway design of a Washburn-Crosby flour mill first appeared in the 1915 Wheat & Flour Primer advertising their Gold Medal Flour and this one was issued just a few hours later in a larger format detailing how the consumer could trust the purity of Gold Medal Flour. The second cutaway poster vividly illustrates the ideal Spring wheat kernel used by the company and details the various layers and their terminology. Edwards & Deutsch Lithographing Co. was first founded in 1896 and continued to be one of Chicago’s most successful poster and packaging colour lithography printers through the 1920’s.

Original printed softcovers minor chipping head & foot of spine slight chipping couple lower corners dustsoiling still a VG bright copy. First edition of one of the earliest American studies on Chinese Sugarcane Sorghum and the possibilities that this was the sorghum plant that American farmers hoped would grow in the Northern United States and definitive work on growing harvesting and distilling sorghum. A variety of “Chinese Sugarcane” was imported by Father Du Halde from Sichuan China in 1851 where it was quickly adopted also under the name of “Northern Chinese or Shanghai Sugarcane” as a crop to provide sugars for alcoholic products filling the void left by the grape crop failure in the 1850s. Chinese Sugarcane seeds were first brought into United States by Jay Browne Esq. in 1854 and a few intrepid American nurseries began planting and determining if it could be planted and harvested profitably in the North. Hyde writes that in his test crop he was able to secure a dark sugar from the cane molasses and notes that it will be of tremendous value in producing alcohol and confectionaries and that the Sorghum remnants could be fed to livestock. Hyde 1825-1898 worked with his father James Hyde in developing the very successful nursery emphasizing fruit trees ornamental trees and cash crops. He was a pioneering environmentalist who founded the first improvement society in the United States the Newton Centre Tree Club whose purpose was to emphasize beautifying the roads and commons in Massachusetts. He was Newton MA first mayor after the city was incorporated in 1873 and was also successful in persuading the Boston & Albany RR to acquire the existing single-track line of the Charles River Railroad to aid his nursery business.

Fourth editions of both treatises which “were essentially practical guides that placed considerable emphasis on the medical wisdom of moderation in diet and drink. . . In medical theory for example he was much committed to directing attention from the body’s fluids to its fibrous solids his uncited guide in this matter almost certainly being the influential Leiden professor Hermann Boerhaave.” One of the drugs he urges in dealing with pain common miseries and other medical issues was Opium with its “wonderful effects. . . which when properly prescribed and prudently managed is a most certain and sudden relief in all exquisite and intense pain p. 213.” Cheyne 1671-1743 was a Scottish physician and mathematician who first lived in Scotland before moving to London in the early 1700’s and he focused his practice and writings on the lay reader. Much of his commonsense advice in these two works was based upon his own hypochodria gouty arthritis and continue struggle with obesity.

This intriguing Pure Food Fair promotion guide compiled by the noted Swiss-American western food fair display designer and promoter captures the energy and impact in Colorado Washington Massachusetts and the United Kingdom following the passage of the Pure Food & Drug Act of 1906. Across the United States and in the UK there was a tremendous growth of the public’s interest in sanitary food manufacturing packaging new products and more importantly booths designed to demonstrate that there products were unadulterated safe & modern. The Denver Retail Grocers Association and the Spokane Grocers’ Association contracted with the intrepid salesman and show promoter to present “up-to-date carefully managed City and State-wide advertised indoor exposition of pure foods household electrical gas auto labor-saving appliances and industrial exhibits of every nature” in the two Western Cities. The 1908 Boston Food Fair was a lavish Progressive Era production which featured the band and performances of John Philip Sousa to entertain participants and fair-goers. Tremp b. 1873 first emigrated into Oakland CA before setting himself up in Denver CO until just before World War I with a focus on “Pure Food” fairs but after World War I would move back to California and remained there as a show promoter until the 1950’s.
