1925218901925. Women in Sports Archive of four photographs documenting women's track and field achievements from 1925 to 1956 highlighting pioneering female athletes in Olympic and exhibition competition. Includes NEA and United Press photo service stamps and typed caption slips on versos. The images span the 1920s to post-WWII era and depict notable moments in women's sports history from athletes representing Australia the Netherlands and beyond. They capture critical milestones in the visibility and legitimization of women in professional athletics especially in Olympic contexts where female participation was still relatively novel and contested.<br /> <br /> Included is a striking 1956 action shot of Australia's Shirley Strickland clearing the final hurdle en route to her gold medal victory in the 80-meter hurdles at the Melbourne Olympics where she set a new Olympic record of 10.7 seconds. The image is identified via an INP Radio Soundphoto caption. A 1952 United Press photo from Helsinki captures the dramatic baton drop in the women's 4x100 relay by Australia's Marjorie Jackson who had earlier taken gold in the 100-meter sprint; the caption dramatically underscores how the error "killed Australia's chances." A third image shows Dutch Olympic legend Fanny Blankers-Koen-winner of four gold medals at the 1948 London Games-greeted with tulips and accolades at New York's Idlewild Airport in May 1955. The accompanying caption notes her role as both a mother and athletic icon foregrounding the persistent framing of female athletes through maternal identity. Lastly a ca. 1925 press photo shows an unnamed track competitor on the field with the reverse stamped August 11 1925 suggesting the early presence of women in organized publicly documented competition during a decade when such participation was still controversial. All images well-preserved with clear annotations on three captioned photos. Overall very good condition. This archive offers an illuminating view into women's evolving presence on the global athletic stage highlighting moments of both triumph and adversity in a narrative of gender progress within competitive sports. unknown
1910219051910. Archive of original photographs documenting women's participation in athletics and organized physical culture during the early twentieth century when women's sports and exercise programs increasingly became accepted within schools colleges camps and recreational organizations. The photographs show women engaged in archery synchronized gymnastics calisthenics and cheer leading during a period when female athletic participation expanded alongside broader debates concerning women's health education public visibility and social independence. The photographs provide visual evidence of the physical culture movement as it shaped women's recreational and educational environments in the United States and abroad preserving both formal athletic training and communal performance activities that contributed to changing expectations surrounding women's physical activity and public presence.<br /> Collection consists of seven original silver gelatin photographs dating approximately from the 1910s through the 1930s. The archive includes several photographs of women participating in organized physical education exercises and athletic activities while dressed in period sporting attire. One image dated July 5 1928 documents uniformed women performing synchronized gymnastic drills during a Sokol Festival dress rehearsal in Prague capturing rows of participants in coordinated motion during a major international physical culture gathering influenced by Central European nationalist and athletic traditions. Another photograph from the 1910s-1920s shows a group of young women posed with medicine balls Indian clubs and batons while wearing sailor-inspired gymnasium uniforms associated with school or collegiate athletic programs. A separate 1930s image depicts a cheerleading squad in matching lettered "S" sweaters posed in formation within a school auditorium. Archery appears prominently throughout the archive.

Another image depicts Stella M. Ives identified in manuscript drawing a bow while dressed in full sporting attire. A vernacular photograph portrays four young women practicing archery in the hills above Troy New York including one identified as Louise Hatch of Troy with a handwritten verso inscription linking the group to Bridgewater Massachusetts. The final photograph shows a large assembly of young women gathered on outdoor steps beside a prominent archery target possibly at a camp or collegiate event emphasizing organized recreation and group participation.<br /> The archive documents the increasing visibility of women's athletic participation during the early twentieth century when organized exercise and sports became associated with women's education health reform and public modernity. Physical culture programs in schools colleges camps and civic organizations promoted athletics as both disciplined recreation and social training while sports such as archery and gymnastics offered women expanded opportunities for public competition and physical expression.

1875315094New York: William H. Murphy 1875. First edition. viii 9-72 pp. 1 vols. 12mo. Publisher's blue cloth front cover stamped in gilt and black. Spine ends rubbed light soiling to cover and spotting to text but in all an attractive copy. First edition. viii 9-72 pp. 1 vols. 12mo. First edition of this important early mathematical approach to poker; along with Blackbridge's The Complete Poker Player 1875 it is the earliest book devoted soley to the game. The author Henry T. Winterblossom advertises himself as a Professor of Mathematics and his book is the first to treat the mathematical aspects of poker. Winterblossom argues that knowing the odds and probabilites of success with each hand mitigates the risk inherent in gambling and reduces the player's reliance on dumb luck: "All games of chance create a morbid appetite in those who indulge in them in proportion to their ignorance of the mathematical basis upon which those games are constructed." <br /> <br /> "The National Game" a New York Times article for February 12 1875 suggests that Winterblossom is a pseudonym and though the author's real name is not revealed he was thought to be a member of New York's literary Lotus Club.<br /> <br /> The earliest contemporary notice of Blackbridge's Complete Poker Player considered with Winterblossom the first books on the sport was a review in the 10 April 1875 edition of the New York Times - evidence perhaps that Winterblossom's work has precedence as the first book on poker.
