1969rif. 0010041Madison Georgia. Good with no dust jacket. 1969. Hardcover. On offer is a 1969-1970 American diary from 71-year-old Florida Lamar Poullain Campbell Prior of Madison Georgia. Prior was the descendant of the Poullain and Lamar families who have called Georgia home since the early 1700s. Prior was born in Madison in 1898 and lived her life in that community. She married Walter Truman Prior and had a daughter named Florida C. Prior Jr. Prior passed away in 1991 at the age of 93. Although her name is not inscribed on the book context and the individuals named in her entries point to Priors identity. This diary was printed in 1925 but entries were sporadically made between 1969 and 1970. Prior's writing paints a detailed picture of life in the American South at this time. Personal relationships were very important to Prior and her entries are replete with references to family and friends. She also describes the social events that she participates in and the simple pleasures she experiences in her daily life. "Roy M. Prior passed away around 6: 00 AM. Today. He was my sweet and true friend. We will miss him. Ruth has stayed with us some during his illness and Flo & I have enjoyed being with her" April 11. "Today Florida C Prior Jr & Myself watched astronauts Neil Armstrong & Edwin Aldrin Jr. Walk on the moon & heard Pres. Nixon talk to them from Washington and heard their reply to him. UNBELIEVABLE" July 20. "Claire Stovall Inez W. Kroger Georgia Mallory Marguerite Little Helen de Beaugrine Fanny Harris & Ruth Attaway had lunch with me at Ye Olde Colonial Restaurant. We missed Martha Rhoades & Sara Knight who could not be with us. I enjoyed these sweet friends" July 25. "Mell Burgess Paine invited Flo & I to come to Decater for the day & to go to new S. DeKalb Richs. We took morning train for Atlanta -- first time I have been on this train in over 45 years. It was a great experience" August 20. "Elizabeth Cochran Prior & Roy Prior were married this afternoon at the Apalachee Baptist Church. Martha & Paul Rhoades went with Flo & me. It was very sweet" November 8. The diary measures 7 inches by 5 inches contains 183 pages and is approximately 20 percent complete. The cover binding and pages are all in good condition and the handwriting is quite legible. This small diary offers an interesting grouping of family and friendship links that can flesh out genealogical lines in this historic community and county in Georgia. It also offers insight into life in the South at a time when Americans were landing on the moon and experiencing major social upheaval. ; Manuscripts; 7" x 5"; 183 pages; Keywords: Florida Campbell Prior; Lamar; Lamer; Madison Oaks Inn; 766 East Avenue; Poullain Heights; Morgan County; American South; Georgia; Madison; Historic; The South; Scull Shoals; Antoinne Poullain; Rebecca Lamar; Sarah Poullain Campbell; Thomas Poullain; Ye Olde Colonial Restaurant; Apalachee Baptist Church; Moon Landing; Moon Walk; Neil Armstrong; Edwin Aldrin Jr; Buzz Aldrin; AMERICANA; HANDWRITTEN; MANUSCRIPT; DOCUMENT; LETTER; AUTOGRAPH; WRITER; HAND WRITTEN; DOCUMENTS; SIGNED; LETTERS; MANUSCRIPTS; DIARY; DIARIES; JOURNALS; PERSONAL HISTORY; SOCIAL HISTORY; HISTORICAL; HOLOGRAPH; WRITERS; AUTOGRAPHS; PERSONAL; MEMOIR; MEMORIAL; ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT; VÉLIN; DOCUMENT; MANUSCRIT; PAPIER ANTIKE; BRIEF; PERGAMENT; DOKUMENT; MANUSKRIPT; PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO; ATTO; VELINA; DOCUMENTO; MANOSCRITTO; CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD; HECHO; VITELA; DOCUMENTO; MANUSCRITO; PAPEL . hardcover
1910rif. 62983St. Augustine: The Record Company ca. 1910. An Early Promotional Booklet for the City Beautiful An early promotional booklet issued by the Orlando Board of Trade encouraging "all newcomers" to "visit this beautiful little city by the lakes." In an effort "to secure tourists winter and permanent residents" the publication touts the city's "superior advantages" "especially in point of situation climate freedom from troublesome insects up-to-date business houses comfortable dwellings good hotels healthfulness paved and shaded streets good schools and churches fine sporting accommodations best drinking water on earth and many other advantages too numerous to mention." The booklet is richly illustrated with halftones from photographs depicting a variety of natural civic and commercial landmarks as well as people engaged in a range of recreational activities. Among other things the illustrations show Orange Avenue the San Juan Hotel people playing golf and lawn tennis a match at the Orlando Polo Club horse-racing and the track of the Orlando Driving Park Association the recently inaugurated Automobile Carnival a newly constructed public school building the Orange County Courthouse various city churches the Rosalind Club House a young woman posing in front of a grapefruit tree and agricultural laborers working in a celery field. Also included are various images of tree-lined streets and the city's many lakes including Lake Sue Lake Minnie Lake Lucerne Lake Eola and Lake Highland. Most of the illustrations were likely taken from photographs by Clarence E. Howard 1858-1930. A native of Pennsylvania Howard first arrived in Orange County Florida in 1883 before settling permanently in Orlando in 1904. There he worked in the publishing business and as a photographer. He edited a number of publications including the Orlando Star the Orange County Reporter the Reporter-Star the Sentinel and later owned and edited the Orange County Citizen. He was active in the civic life of the community serving twelve years as city alderman and as chairman of the District School Trustees. Notably Howard was also for several years secretary of the Orlando Board of Trade the body responsible for producing the present publication. Howard is buried at Orlando's historic Greenwood Cemetery. The date of publication can be roughly surmised from a reference to an "Automobile Carnival" inaugurated a year prior to publication. We find a reference to the Orlando "Automobile Parade" in the Automobile Blue Book from as early as 1912. The present publication must therefore predate that. This copy bears an inkstamp on the titlepage saying that further information could be had from D.S. Shine of Jacksonville. An intriguing and early glimpse of life in Orlando long before it became an international tourist destination. Oblong octavo. Original publisher's red wrappers stapled title in raised gilt letters on front wrapper. Wrappers lightly faded and soiled. Small chip to bottom edge of front wrapper and title leaf not affecting text. Old stamp in purple ink to titlepage see below. Very good. OCLC 882242309. OCLC 1750611. C.E.

1910rif. 15233St. Augustness: The Record Company 1910. First Edition. Pamphlet. Near fine. Promotional booklet for Orlando located in Orange County Florida published by The Record Company circa 1910. Oblong octavo 32pp. Publisher's maroon wrappers title printed in gold on cover bound at spine with staples. Sunning to covers staples beginning to rust. A scarce pamphlet showing the local infrastructure farming operations municipal buildings and churches all in half tone illustrations. Illustrations likely by Clarence E. Howard who worked as a photographer and newspaper editor. A reference to the first Automobile Carnival dates this pamphlet prior to 1912. OCLC 882242309 A scarce work. Orlando Florida traces its roots back to the 1830s during a period marked by the Seminole Wars where the U.S. Army built Fort Gatlin south of the present-day Orlando city limits to protect settlers from attacks by Native Americans. By 1840 the area around Fort Gatlin was settled leading to the growth of a small community that by 1856 was known as Jernigan named after the Jernigan family who established the first permanent settlement. The name Orlando was adopted in 1857 though the origin of the name is subject to various legends one of the most popular claims it was named after Orlando Reeves a soldier who allegedly died in the area during the Second Seminole War. The city was officially incorporated in 1875 and by the late 19th century Orlando became a significant hub for Florida's citrus industry. The Record Company unknown
