1929réf. 10268Boston: various 1929. Archive. One medium-sized file box containing approximately six hundred twenty-five items including: commercial brochures 121 samples 11 posters 3 typed letters signed/TLS 304 autograph letters signed/ALS 149 postcards & telegrams 29 and periodicals 5. The commercial or trade brochures are mostly small booklets bi-folds and tri-folds graphically illustrated with images of the equipment on offer and frequently printed in two colors or in duotone. A small but deeply engaging archive depicting the business activities of the Boston Massachusetts kitchen equipment supply firm W.H. Davenhall. The supply company serviced businesses with food production and serving needs far beyond the traditional restaurants and hotels. There are in fact few of those represented therein. The company's stock in trade seemed to have been the many "secondary" food establishments growing in number in the early twentieth century including soda fountains candy shops tea rooms diners cafeterias educational dining facilities gas stations with food offerings cafes lunch shops beauty parlors fraternity houses and military bases. The types of equipment depicted in the archive represents changes in food production for a population rapidly moving away from traditional home dining and increasingly consuming food in new types of establishments. The rapid economic expansion that made all this change possible came to a halt with the Crash of 1929 and the Great Depression. The archive illustrates the experience of a small business in the years leading up to the Crash with issues collecting debts bankruptcy of suppliers and clients etc. The correspondence includes offers of new equipment or supplies often the line between brochure and correspondence is blurred orders inquiries demands for payments complaints requests for new supplier arrangements bankruptcy notices of former customers and more. In addition to the typed and handwritten letters there are postcards and telegrams. A handful of label samples and posters are included as well. Finally there are materials produced by trade periodicals including: Institutional Merchandising Hot Off the Griddle published by Westinghouse American Restaurant Magazine and The Soda Fountain. A wide range of business topics is visible in this archive: bill collection disputes about what was delivered or when disputes about salesmen adding items to an order bankruptcy of a client price changes a UNH fraternity orders a half dozen aluminum pitchers surprised complicated returns of defective merchandise development of school cafeterias the Crash of '29 deliveries abandoned or rejected and more. Condition is generally very good or better. A more detailed description including complete lists of suppliers and clients is available by request. various unknown
1885réf. 10269Boston: Parker House 1885. Menu on silk 31 x 15 cm. printed recto only and with hand painted floral ornament. In thick blank card stock bound with thick pale blue and white silk cord. A banquet menu presented to members of visiting Commercial Clubs of several Midwestern cities. Highlights of the menu include Penobscot Salmon a la Hollandaise Philadelphia Squab and a Pistachio Cream Meringue.

Some lighter creases are present as well and there is light soiling. Still very good plus. Parker House hardcover

A menu and wine list for the hotel restaurant of Revere House issued in the hotel's inaugural year. Built on the site of home of Boston's Kirk Boote Revere House became one of the city's leading hotels hosting guests that included Charles Dickens Jenny Lind and Walt Whitman and Daniel Webster addressed audience from the steps of the portico. Paran Stevens 1802-1872 at times the general manager and later a co-owner of the hotel was to become proprietor of additional luxury hotels in Claremont N.H. Philadelphia and New York. He had a considerable reputation as connoisseur of wines and liquors and was said to have the finest nose in the country. The "Stevens Sherry" was tailor-made to suit his palette and it was said that his cellars were "never equaled in America". The Wine List includes the usual categories: Madeira Sherry Champagne Hock Sauterne Port Burgundy and Claret along with a short selection of Porter and Ale. What is unusual is the detail in the descriptions of some of the Madeira and Sherry including Dornelios Vasconcellos Sercial Rapid East India Madeira imported by J. W. Boott Esq. in 1819 - bottled in 1822 and Governor Phillip's imported in 1820 from Page Phelps & Co. ~ Paper is age-toned and has a water stain along the bottom edge. Still bright and legible. Very good. No records of other copies of this menu have been located. Menus from any location in the United States prior to 1850 are very scarce. Rare. unknown
