Black and white photo on one side with advertising copy on the reverse along with a small illustration of the printing press.

The reverse touts their typesetting machinery and maps that come with subscriptions. Of note is the front side photo depicting three African-American boys sitting on a wall giggling and laughing rendering this somewhat of an anomaly unfortunately of a 19th century trade card where racist stereotypes were more often than not the norm.

1932ref. 021730Calvert TX: Calvert Colored High School Publisher 1932. Wraps. Good. Single sheet folded into four pages 8 ½ by 5 ½ inches. Cover mentions day and location of the commencement May 23rd at the WW.O.W. Temple. Interior lists the names of the senior class students as well as class officers Board of Education members and faculty members. The Calvert Colored High School was built in 1929 with aid from the Rosenwald School Fund. It was originally named Calvert County Training School. This school was a step toward providing real education to Black students in the area as most of the students at that time attended "plantation" schools until they were old enough to work in the fields. The school offered vocational training although apparently focusing on skills that would not conflict with occupations commonly held by white people Texas State Historical Landmark text. The school changed its name to the W.D. Spigner High School in 1961 named after its long time headmaster. GOOD condition. Appears to have been removed from a scrapbook or photobook as there are large areas of black paper adhered to the blank rear page. Horizontal fold crease present. Minor toning wrinkling and creasing.

ref. 019671No Place: No publisher. Unbound. Good. Collection of 15 invitations to US State dinners wedding invitations and other similar events. All various sizes and pagination. Some include dinner menus seating information. All from the same private collection from an executive of a very large international insurance firm name of owner and firm withheld for privacy. The previous owner saved these items for an apparent planned scrapbook mounting most on paper with either glue or staples. The owner was a highly placed executive in an insurance company and travelled throughout the world extensively. They were active in politics through donations and fundraising and it appears their family was friendly with the Roosevelts especially Eleanor Roosevelt. The previous owner's work for the insurance company led them to meet with various heads of state worldwide including US government officials. Some of the people associated with this firm were also involved in World War II activities including financing the Flying Tigers in China as well as work for the OSS using knowledge gained from insurance work. While we have not found any direct connection to intelligence work by this owner their ties to those who did are strong. NB: we are starting the process of cataloguing four boxes of material from this individual both personal and business correspondence. More information on the collection available on request. Included in this lot: invitation to a 1966 dinner in honor of Takeo Fukuda Japanese Minister of Finance; invitation to a 1966 dinner in honor of Ferdinand Marcos President of the Philippines; invitation to a 1966 dinner in honor of Makato Usami Governor of the Bank of Japan; Several items relating to a 1967 state dinner with the Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany including the invitation from President Johnson; a wedding announcement and invitation to the reception of the marriage of Hope Aldrich daughter of John D. Rockefeller; a several page seating list to a 1966 banquet in honor of Ferdinand Marcos and his wife; a program to the preceding event; an invitation sent by Vice President Humphrey to a 1967 luncheon with the President of Mexico; an invitation and two other items to a luncheon in honor of Nikita Khrushchev in New York in 1959; a 1959 invitation to a dinner marking the presentation of the General William J. Donovan Memorial Award one of the founders of the OSS; an invitation to a special US Court of Appeals 2nd Circuit celebrating the 50th anniversary of Judge Learned Hand; a pamphlet invitation for a 1956 closed circuit telecast featuring Adlai Stevenson Harry S. Truman John F. Kennedy Eleanor Roosevelt and others. All in GOOD or better condition with some fold creases stapling or gluing some ink notations as to whether the invitations were accepted or declined and other minor wear.

1854ref. 020858Nashua NH: Published for J.R. Dodge 1854. Unbound. Poor. Single sheet 34 ¾ by 24 ¼ inches. Linen backed varnished map.

Ex-library with a title label affixed to the reverse. Heavy creasing and tearing to the entire piece with some loss along the extremities and to the face of the map from the cracking/tearing. Map toned and faded with the varnish not doing it any favors. Some soiling and staining. The map is extremely fragile and will be prone to further deterioration with more handling.
