Established in 1906 it offered a variety of courses on contemporary topics traditional subjects and socialist theory taught by intellectual leaders of the socialist movement distinguished academicians and trade union leaders. The growth of the School along with the increased strength of the socialist movement provoked the New York State Assembly to appoint a special Committee to investigate radical activities in the state. Under the chairmanship of Senator Clayton R. Lusk this committee engaged in a campaign of harassment against the Rand School and its administrative board the American Socialist Society and attempted to close the school by court ordered injunction. The School was able to successfully counteract the Lusk Committee and expanded its course offerings and special educational programs in the areas of child development trade union policies education music art juvenile delinquency race relations etc. Some of the notable instructors for the courses advertised on this broadside for the 1939 Winter Term include Theodore Reik Psychoanalysis August Claessens Public Speaking Richard Plant The Motion Picture Today Jacques Barzun Oswald Garrison Villard and Géza Róheim Race Theories and Democracy.

Small 4to. 37 ff. mostly with newspaper clippings neatly pasted in on both sides 4 ff. in manuscript "Summary of Scores" from 1871-1877 and 1910.

We find on certain stubs "Ai" followed immediately by "Ao" and then several leaves later: "Her. - Hes" followed by "Io." Binding rebacked with smooth calf. In very good condition. Highly interesting homemade album of Cricket Scores available nowhere else specifically documenting the triumphs of three young members of the Blomfield family namely: E.G. Edward George C.J. Charles James and R.T. Reginald Theodore. One wonders if the present album was created in order to promote friendly competition between the brothers two of whom went to Haileybury School and one went to Charterhouse; all three went up to Oxford. There are scores and game synopsis of matches were between Haileybury Charterhouse Marylebone Cricket Club MCC Westminster Trinity College Oxon. Exeter Oxon. and more. One of the more interesting features about the album is that it provides a fascinating record of one family's love of the game: ¶ Edward George 1853-1885 entered Charterhouse School London in 1865 and transfer upon the School's removal to Godalming in 1872; in 1873 he went to Trinity College Oxon. where he earned a B.A. in 1877 and M.A. in 1879; thereafter he served as Curate of St. Mary's Portsea until 1883 and then Vicar of St. Mark's Woolston until his death in London in 1885. ¶ Charles James 1855-1928 went to Haileybury School; he underwent military training at Sandhurst and served as an army officer in India Sudan and Natal. He attained the rank of Major General before his retirement in 1917. NB: this individual is not to be confused with a noted architect of the same name b. 1862 d. 1932. ¶ Reginald Theodore 1856-1942 also went to Haileybury School; he earned his B.A. from Exeter Oxon. in 1880 and M.A. in 1884. He became an architect and was knighted in 1919. He is remembered mainly for his work designing British war memorials. ¶ The parents of the three young men were Rev. George John and his first cousin Isabella Blomfield of Bow Devonshire whose own father Charles James Blomfield was Bishop of London. ¶ At the end is a "Summary of Scores" for the years 1871-1877. Following this in a different hand is the year 1910; although the initial of the last name "Blomfield" remains the same the other initials belong to Reginald Thomas and his two sons Henry George and Austin. ¶ See Stedman Charterhouse Register 1872-1900 passim. CATALOGUER'S NOTE: We are grateful to Catherine Smith Archivist of Charterhouse School for much useful information concerning the Blomfield Family. hardcover books
