1957réf. 5265St. Louis: The School Press 1957. Very good. 180pp. Profusely illustrated with photographs. Original orange printed self wrappers staple. Minor rubbing soiling and some edge wear to wrappers. Internally clean. A seemingly unrecorded photographic annual for a prominent African-American dance school in Jim Crow Missouri. The Les Pierrettes Dance School was a well-respected institution for the training of young dancers in St. Louis. The school's director identified in the present work as "Maitre d'Ecole" was Anita W. Roland a prominent dancer with experience on the stage in North America Latin America and Europe. The work opens with a couple of introductory poems and a table of contents; thereafter the work features almost sixty dance students both male and female in two-page spreads with a poem on the verso and a photographic portrait of the students in their dance uniforms on the rectos. This section is described on the table of contents as "A group of mirth-laden girls and boys make truth-laden statements about themselves" indicating the biographical poems were written by each of the students. The middle of the work features the dancing school staff and "Studio Demonstrators" i.e. dance instructors with some biographical details about each person. This is followed by a long section of well wishes and congratulatory messages from the dance students' family friends and the larger community. The rear of the work also includes a section of advertisements from local businesses. The present work was edited by Anita Roland's husband Philip Roland here listed as the Director of Program Activities for the dance school and editor of Foto-Feature. The work itself is identified on the table of contents as "Vol. 2 No. 1" indicating it is likely the second in a series. We could locate no exact matches of the present work in OCLC or auction records though there might be one other example at the Missouri History Museum the OCLC record does not specify volume number.

Generally folded vertically twice with some wear and tearing at folds; toned with wear and damage especially to margins. Very good. The Red Man and Helper a newspaper published by Carlisle Indian Industrial School had several iterations first published under the title Eadle Keatah Toh 1880-82-Lakota meaning roughly "morning star" the title was an interesting choice for the newspaper of a school where only the English language was allowed. It was published as The Morning Star then The Red Man: His Past Present and Future until "His Past" was removed in 1888; then The Red Man until 1900 when it merged with The Indian Helper running as The Red Man and Helper from 1900 to 1904.1 The contents with contributions from students educators and other publications generally concern the value of an off-reservation Euro-American education and the capabilities of Indigenous students to assimilate into the Euro-American way of life.

1916réf. 156401916. Collection of 43 original vintage photographs documenting the Public School Gardening Movement in Queens New York City 1916-1920 provides concentrated visual evidence of Progressive Era educational reform linking urban environmental transformation to child development and civic formation. Produced at the height of the national school gardening movement which flourished between 1900 and 1920 these photographs capture the integration of nature study playground reform tenement house activism and City Beautiful urbanism into the daily life of immigrant and working class children. The images support research in Progressive Era reform environmental education immigration history urban studies and the construction of civic identity through public schooling demonstrating how agricultural labor was reframed as moral physical and democratic training within dense metropolitan neighborhoods. Forty three original photographs primarily silver gelatin prints Queens New York City 1916-1920. Most measure approximately 2 by 4 inches with several bearing manuscript dates between 1916 and 1920 and occasional notations identifying individuals or activities. The photographs depict schoolchildren planting seeds watering beds harvesting produce carrying baskets of vegetables and working collaboratively under teacher supervision in organized garden plots. Visual evidence indicates structured rows tool distribution and adult oversight underscoring the pedagogical framework rather than informal recreation. The movement in New York was shaped by the work of reformer Frances Griscom Parsons who established the Children's School Farm in Hell's Kitchen in 1902 to provide immigrant youth living amid warehouses factories and docks with access to cultivated land. Parsons articulated gardening as instruction in "brotherhood cooperation self respect and the dignity of labor" envisioning children as "little farmers" rehearsing democratic citizenship within an idealized urban microcosm structured into "boroughs" with its own elected governance. The Queens photographs reflect the diffusion of this model into outer borough public schools during the final years of the First World War and immediate postwar period. The timing of the archive coincides with national concern over urban crowding industrialization and the assimilation of immigrant communities as well as wartime food production campaigns that reinforced agricultural instruction in schools. School gardens functioned simultaneously as environmental intervention civic laboratory and instrument of Americanization embedding Progressive reform ideals directly into children's bodily practice and daily routine. The photographs materially document how educational institutions operationalized nature study principles and urban reform agendas on the ground offering granular evidence of children's participation in structured agricultural labor within New York City's public school system. Minor edge wear and light surface handling marks to several prints; occasional light fading consistent with age; manuscript annotations legible. Overall very good condition. A cohesive visual archive illuminating the intersection of urban reform environmental education and immigrant childhood in Progressive Era New York. unknown

1890réf. 13391890. Good. Ink and gouache with yellow heightening on fibrous brown laid paper with a Jaipur Court Fee tax stamp in purple ink on the recto and the Jaipur State Council Stamp dated June 5 1894 and the 1889 Jaipur State Council stamp in black ink on the verso 12 1/2 x 9 inches 318 x 230 mm. Toning handling creases and minor scattered surface soiling throughout. There are scattered coeval Hindi inscriptions in ink on the recto. The first revenue stamps in India were issued in the mid-nineteenth century during the Raj and they are still being issued to this day. Apart from issues for the whole of India many princely states provinces and other states also had or still have their own revenue stamp issues. Before independence Indian revenue stamps were closely modeled on similar designs from Great Britain as is the case with this carriage motif stamp from Jaipur. The stamps were issued to denote various denominations including rupees and annas. An anna or Änna was a currency unit formerly used in British India equal to 1â„16 of a rupee. It was subdivided into four old Paisa or twelve pies thus there were 192 pies in a rupee. When the rupee was decimalized and subdivided into 100 new paise one anna was therefore equivalent to 6.25 paise. This particular stamp was used as evidence of court taxes remitted for property dealings. unknown
