A small archive of material from 1910 for the Riverview Park development in Glendive Montana a town that was expected to gain prominence backed by government funded irrigation projects new railroad lines and general westward expansion.

Berry proprietor of Glendive's Hotel Jordan urged prospective buyers: "I can and do advise all that can purchase one or more of these lots to buy. I can further honestly say that there is no addition to any town in the State of Montana that will have the improvements placed on it when the work is completed by the Glendive Montana Company Inc. beautiful ornaments streetlights shade trees concrete walks water mains."<br /> <br /> The testimonial letters and a few small pieces of ephemera have been affixed to stiff black scrapbook sheets; otherwise the materials are in very good condition and provide a unique view of land development and western expansion. unknown

Dédié Aux enfans associés de la petite oeuvre des Savoyards de Bordeaux, par un de leurs amis, A.X., 1 vol. in-12 reliure de l'époque pleine basane racinée, Se Vend à Bordeaux Au profit de la petite Oeuvre des Savoyards, A la chapelle de l'Oeuvre, place Henri IV, 1832, 2 ff., 282 pp. avec 8 planches hors texte Très rare exemplaire de l'édition originale de ce petit ouvrage orné de 8 charmantes lithographies. "Il n'est personne qui n'ait connu dès son enfance quelques-uns de ces pauvres petits gentils étrangers qui descendent chaque année dans nos grandes villes, des montagnes de l'Auvergne et de la Savoie, et auxquels nous sommes accoutumés à donner le nom de Petits Savoyards. Les connaître, c'est connaître leur humble et utile ministère ; c'est connaître leur misère, leur candeur, les dangers auxquels ils sont sans cesse exposés au milieu de nos rues et de nos places publiques ; c'est connaître ou plutôt deviner de coeur le but de cette Oeuvre intéressante comme eux". Le Père Antoine-Adolphe Dupuch (1800-1856) fonda l'Œuvre des petits savoyards à Bordeaux sur le modèle de celle de Paris et s'en occupa jusqu'en 1838 où il fut nommé évêque d'Alger. Très rare édition originale (Perret, 1454, mais il décrit l'édition de 1833 comme la première). Etat satisfaisant (rel. frottée avec ancienne restauration au dos en queue, cahiers brunis). Français

19201265Williams Mt: Western Office 1920. Good. 8pp. Two loose folio sheets. Previously folded with several separations repaired with tape along old folds. Even tanning. An unrecorded promotional for the town of Williams Montana. In its post-World War I heyday it thrived as a result of its proximity to the Valier Irrigation Project and its location on the purpose-built spur from the Great Northern Railroad but today is a ghost town east of Valier. The text extolls these geographic virtues of the town as well as the agricultural benefits from the irrigation project and the good prospects from Montana's other industries in the region. Perhaps most valuable are the descriptions of the town as it existed in 1919 -- its businesses its residences its attractions -- and accompanying photographic illustrations. At the time of publication Williams was an electrified town with its own grocery bank train station blacksmith pool hall and grain elevators situated in the midst of 125000 acres of reclaimed land but the fortunes of its investors declined and the town dwindled to nothing before World War II. Not in OCLC. Western Office unknown

19021365Great Falls: Tribune Job Print 1902. About very good. 222pp. 12mo. Original limp calf wrappers. Head of spine chipped; some edge wear and rubbing to wraps. Very minor chipping at fore-edge of text block. Slightly later ownership inscriptions on rear endpapers. Light tanning. An unrecorded handbook for the short-lived Barbers' Protective Union of Great Falls Montana which was established as a subsidiary of the American Labor Union and the Western Federation of Miners. The formation of the union was prompted by the efforts of the ALU to organize the service industries in mining towns across Montana. Ultimately these attempts lasted only a few years cut short by the violent response of mine owners to unionization and the Barbers' Protective Union was absorbed into the Industrial Workers of the World after 1906. According to the preamble of the guide "The history of Journeyman Barbers throughout the country has been but the records of constant struggle against oppression and.trouble has arisen almost entirely from lack of unity." This copy bears the ownership inscription of John William Stacy a Spanish-American War veteran and a barber in Great Falls during the time that the union was active. Not in OCLC.
