Fruit Produce Butter and Eggs Shipper Journals

187027000105Chicago 1870s-1890s. Extensive information on growers and producers and the networks required to feed America at the time. The assumption of Chicago for the first journals is based on the bookseller labels in the journals and the accompanying letterhead. The Boston location was determined by reference to Boston based individuals in the journal and the address on the accompanying envelopes. All of these materials were found in one location without further information. A collection of five journals for Fruit Vegetable Butter and Egg Shipper Journals from the 1870s-1890s. The four larger format journals are most likely from Chicago detailing the various farms from which they received their product. Four of the journals list out each farm and their location and are believed to be from the 1870s-80s. They are accompanied by a letterhead for J. C. Wallace Commission Merchant Jobber and Shipper in Foreign and Domestic Fruits Nuts Produce etc. Chicago 1875. The titles of these four journals are: "Early Fruit and Vegetable Shippers No. 3 Bermuda Veg. Shippers" "Butter and Eggs" "Shippers of Early and Late Potatoes" and "Shippers of Blueberries Blackberries Raspberries Huckleberries Gooseberries Whortleberries Snowberries Dewberries Currants Cherries and Winter Green Berries and Elderberries". Each of these journals is approximately 120 pages long with an alphabet index tab on the side. The shippers are organized alphabetically by last name followed by their location. With the exception of the "Early Fruit and Vegetable" journal which also includes locations in Bermuda all the farming locations are from various towns all over the United States. Often within each letter there are subcategories mostly references to either 'early' or 'late' seasonal shipments. However the Berry Journal is also subdivided by individual berry type all of which were listed in the title of the journal and the Butter and Egg Journal which has the subcategories of Butter and Eggs Creamery Butter Roll Butter and Pickled Eggs.

Courier Journal Job Printing CoABAA

Small Lot of 19 Typography Books from the Technical Library of the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company

1819SS321-001Various: Various 1918-1955. Hardcover. Very Good. For an itemized list of the items in this lot please inquire. Condition Very Good to Good. The Courier-Journal newspaper began publication in Louisville Kentucky in 1868 - the last run of the Courier-Journal newspaper was Sunday February 28 2021; the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company printing facilities closed for good on March 4th 2021. The material offered here is dated 1918 through circa 1955 and includes technical material used by apprentices and compositors working in the composition and press rooms of the Courier-Journal Job Printing Co. Included are 6 volumes of the Typographic Technical Series For Apprentices Part VI Nos. 32-40 out of series Chicago IL: Published by the Committee on Education United Typothetae of America 1918. All copies with the bookplate "Property of Courier-Journal Job Printing Co. For EMPLOYES' sic Use Only Return to Superintendent's Office" in a handsome Art Nouveau design on the front paste-down. This educational material demonstrates that the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company was unionized at least from the beginning of the twentieth-century and highlights the power and influence of typographers who were among the most educated economically mobile wage laborers in the United States and who were represented in every major urban center in the newspaper industry; the typographic unions won a 48-hour work week in 1897 and a standard wage scale throughout the newspaper industry; as an example of the power of the typographers unions in the 1930s the International Typographical Union introduced the 40-hour work week across the industry which spread to other unions and has sinse been codified across the labor sector by federal legislation; the typographers occupied an important if ambiguous place in the development of American labor history in as much as American labor was never successful in uniting all laborers together in one force but tended organize within industries. This grouping tends to focus on the tools of the trade including type specimens and catalogs of process inks issued in the 1920s and 1930s; Courier-Journal typographers left notes to themselves in these catalogs indicating material they felt needed representation in the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company's shops. Something of an outlier in this grouping is an accordion-fold volume of photographs of printing equipment available for use in the 1950s by the competing print shop The Standard Printing Company Incorporated of Louisville Kentucky. Most likely a salesman's dummy to show potential clients that The Standard Printing Company had the latest printing equipment and the most prestigious customers this undated circa 1955 without imprint accordion-fold photo-archive of printing equipment shows the most modern print shop of the 1950s. The earliest book printed by the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company was issued in 1884. An interesting article by Chris Kenning in the Louisville Courier Journal March 11 2021 gave some valuable insights into the history of the newspaper the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company and the challenges to the newspaper business and printing in general in the United States with the advent of desktop computers and the rise of the internet. While the Kenning article did not touch much on the time period 1918-1955 there are still interesting stories to tell about the printing industry in America the place of printing in the American labor movement and printing technology in the first half of the twentieth century that can be told using the materials offered here as visual aids. With the sale of the Courier-Journal to the Gannett Co. Inc in 1986 the road to the shut down of the Courier-Journal Job Printing Company was opened. Now the Courier-Journal newspaper will be printed in Indianapolis IN. The current print circulation of the paper is now under 60000 while the Courier Journal's digital journalism garners 4.5 million monthly visitors to their website. Media consolidation has been made possible with the internet's ability to distribute news on a minute-by-minute basis making regional newspapers printed on paper a redundancy. The Cincinnati Enquirer the Lexington Herald-Leader the Bowling Green Daily News are all regional newspapers that will no longer be produced locally after having been produced in Louisville by the presses of the Courier-Journal. This consolidation of the newspaper industry means the loss of 102 Louisville jobs including printing press operators mailroom and transportation jobs that have been lost to the relocation of the press work to Indianapolis.
