Q567Chicago: Montgomery Ward & Co. Good. Complete set of 20 stencils 4.5 x 6.5 inches each plus a stock of practice papers and four sheets with a child's examples on each side. Enclosed in original box 7.5 x 5.5 x 1 inches. With original 4p leaflet with instructions for developing drawings from the stenciled image by connecting lines adding shading etc. This set of 20 stencils includes images letters numbers and words. Stencils generally in Very Good condition with occasional markings from use. The house stencil has a torn piece which is still present; the stencils are otherwise without major damage or loss. The box is in Fair to Good condition moderately soiled and worn at the edges. Bottom slightly crushed and with about 2 inches of lip missing from the lid; still rests squarely. A selection of stencils originally designed and manufactured by Milton Bradley Co. beginning in the late 1800s. These represent number 1 in a 4-part series sold in the Montgomery Ward Stationery Department in the early to mid 20th century. Undated possibly ca. 1920 which may also account for the attention paid to explaining the German manufacture of the stencils and promoting the designs including a baseball theme and ad for Milton Bradley Co. Kindergarten Blocks as distinctly American: <br /><br />"The German drawing stencils made from leather-paper with perforations for the insertion of a lead or slate pencil have become very popular as fascinating and educational busy work at home and in sub-primary schools. Owing to the peculiar nature of the material and the processes of manufacture all these goods have thus far been imported and a large proportion of the designs are consequently peculiarly foreign. In the "Little Artist Stencils" many are new from American designs and consequently more attractive to American children; these are found in no other collections. Each set is in an ornamental box with chromo label bearing the title as above "Drawing Stencils for our Little Artist." <br /><br /> Montgomery Ward & Co. hardcover

Milton Bradley 1836-1911 published the first American book on the kindergarten Paradise of Childhood in 1869 and soon began producing toys teaching kits kindergarten manuals newsletters and children's books. He is largely responsible for popularizing Froebel Gifts a movement of teaching toys originating in Germany and board games in America. Numerous publishers followed Bradley's suit in the latter nineteenth century. These publications and products came in the wake of milestones like the first English-language kindergarten in the United States which was founded by Elizabeth Palmer Peabody 1804 – 1894 in Boston in 1860. Bradley's eponymous business enterprise would outlive him by some seven decades before eventually being bought by Hasbro in 1984.</p> Milton Bradley Co., hardcover
