1931réf. 14390Minden LA 1931. Very Good. Minden LA: 1931. Original black and white photograph 15.5x25.5cm. depicting the girls' basketball team alongside their coach Mr. Russ each player identified in ink manuscript along bottom of image. Photograph slightly curled with very small flaw at bottom of image else Very Good overall. Misidentifying manuscript label mounted to verso identifying the team in "Shreveport LA / Circa 1947 / Washington ". The label is a red herring misdating and misplacing the photograph sixteen years late and thirty miles west. The center player holds a basketball dated '31 nineteen years before Booker T. Washington High School was founded. The school almost certainly is Webster High School in Minden Louisiana thirty miles east. The building in the background and the women's slightly mismatching uniforms conform to those depicted in W.L.G. Abney's 1950s booklet "The History of Webster High School." Indeed the simple whitewashed wooden structure sitting on a brick pile foundation appears to be either the back of the dormitory or the newly-completed library the ground still unpaved dirt. The story of the founding of Webster High School less than ten years earlier in 1922 displays the dedication and financial burden of a Black community in the heart of the Jim Crow South. According to Abney's history a Colored Board of Trustees comprised of members of the community first set out to find a suitable site for a new school settling on a piece of land "owned and occupied as a home by one of Minden's colored citizens Mr. Henry Harris who was perfectly happy there and had no desire to sell." Abney glosses over the displacement of Harris but the site was secured and approved by the White Parish board "with the understanding that the colored people themselves would have to make substantial financial contribution if they were to secure this site because no money had been budgeted for the cause at that time." Indeed by 1931 the list of state-sponsored schools in Louisiana for White and Black students was sixty-eight to four. Webster was not one of those four schools. As Abney's history delineates however the money was raised by the community through the leadership and outreach of the Colored Board of Trustees and by 1931 a library had been erected and numerous sports teams active. The date is also significant as it coincides with the founding of two of the first all-Black all-women's professional basketball clubs the Philadelphia Tribune Girls and the Chicago Romas. Perhaps these pioneering teams inspired the formation of Webster High School's girls' basketball team. In any case the members listed are as follows: Coach Mr. Russ Tena Lowery Hazel Garrett Willie Stewart B. Green M. Ford Bran Watson M. Gafford E. McCorey Ella B. Gafford Lorscie Henry and Louella Ruffin. unknown books
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.

It was taken in front of Winchester Hall then part of Yale's Sheffield School of Engineering. The building is no longer standing but we have included an reproduced image of the building for the new owner's reference. Much like medical class photographs which are prized for skeletons and other medical oddities collectors prize surveying instrumentation in Civil Engineering class photographs. This one has lots of great surveying instruments including four instruments on tripods surveying sticks an axe and a model of a bridge span. Several equations are chalked on the building pillars. "FUNDAMENTALS" is chalked on the street in front of the subjects. Photographs this large are very scarce on the marketplace this is the largest we have owned in the last 15 years.

1950réf. 5036Washington DC: Cortez W. Peters Business School 1950. About very good. 60pp. Original purple wrappers printed in silver. Some soiling and staining to covers minor chipping and rubbing. Small unobtrusive stain to fore-edge of text overall even toning. A seemingly-unrecorded yearbook from the Washington D.C. branch of the Cortez W. Peters Business School the first African-American-owned business school in the United States. The co-educational school was founded in 1834 in the Nation's Capital followed in the next few years by branches in Chicago and Baltimore. The founder Cortez W. Peters taught himself to type as a child and went on to become the first African-American champion of the World's Amateur Typing Contest. Peters' school was one of the first to teach typing to Black students while also offering instruction in shorthand and other clerical skills. The present yearbook begins with a message from Peters which strikes a conciliatory tone in the wake of racial tensions that followed the conclusion of the Second World War: "We naturally resent discrimination lack of opportunities oppression.But on the other hand there are many other values to be considered which should make us tolerant and willing to work out these traditional handicaps generally." This is followed by messages from the dean and class president Eva Itene Brown then portraits of students and faculty a class history a class prophecy class will class poem and twelve pages of group photographs including shots of the men's and women's basketball teams the coronation ball and images featuring students in the classroom. Many of the students both men and women have included words of advice or stated their personal goals which are printed beside their portraits "To be a good typist" "To be a stenographer" and so forth. OCLC lists a single copy of three similar yearbooks all under different titles from other years and branches of the school Washington D.C. and Chicago in 1948 and an undated yearbook from Baltimore but not this particular year at the school's home base.
