Ward had conceived of the idea of a dry goods mail-order business in Chicago Illinois after several years of working as a traveling salesman among rural customers. He observed that rural customers often wanted "city" goods but their only access to them was through rural retailers who had little competition and did not offer any guarantee of quality. Ward also believed that by eliminating intermediaries he could cut costs and make a wide variety of goods available to rural customers who could purchase goods by mail and pick them up at the nearest train station." In 1896 the US post office started to offer free rural delivery. This led to expansion of the mail order business. - Smithsonian Montgomery Ward & Co paperback

1943WRCLIT75412Washington Providence Montauk etc. 1943. Thirteen pages on six quarto and octavo lettersheets one folded to quarter panels. Three in ink one in pencil. Folded for mailing otherwise fine accompanied by two envelopes addressed in his hand hastily torn open at one end. Four substantial boisterous opinionated and occasionally inebriated letters from Flagg to Willis Birchman addressed variously as "Kid" "Country Gentlemen" "Dear Temperamental Meringue" and "Will Bill" who became one of Flagg's frequent correspondents as a consequence of Birchman having featured Flagg in his 1937 book FACES & FACTS BY AND ABOUT 26 CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS. One letter 4pp. in ink on letterhead of the Providence Biltmore consists of an account of a rather Cutty Sark driven meeting with "Cecil" likely film star Cecil Humphreys with whom he had a long association. Another letter 4pp. written on letterhead of Montauk Manor at Montauk Beach is in pencil and opens with an attractive pencil drawing of a beach scene with cars parked and facing out over the ocean; it relates chiefly to the circumstances of his stay at Montauk and is signed "Cap. Kidd." Another letter 4pp in ink on letterhead of the Hotel Raleigh relates to events surrounding a vague series of meetings in Washington DC involving representatives of the Australian and British governments stops at embassies a meeting with Sumner Welles etc. The last letter dated simply Friday 2pp. in ink is somewhat diffuse but mentions a pending trip to Washington and meetings there perhaps anticipating the stay mentioned in the letter above. Flagg 1877 - 1960 was in his time one of the most prolific and popular of American artists and illustrators. His best known work was one of the most widely distributed recruitment posters for the US military: the iconic image of Uncle Sam captioned "I Want YOU for U.S. Army" unknown books

The feature item of the archive is a binder of over 50 typescript poems with occasional pencil notations and corrections in what we presume to be Gilliland's hand accompanied by a typed and incomplete List of Publications. Given that several of the poems were typed on the blank verso of her husband's life insurance office stationery it seems likely that these were Mrs. Gilland's personal collection comprised of both published and apparently unpublished poems. Also included is a copy of Indiana Poets: An Anthology of 48 Living Writers New York: Henry Harrison 1935 in which Gilliland is one of the featured 48 writers; 20 issues of various poetry magazines one duplicate containing publications of her poetry; and two b/w photographs one of which is identified as a portrait of the author. Mary Winona Gilliland lived in Indianapolis most of her life graduating from Tudor Hall and then DePauw University before marrying Robert V. Gilliland in 1915. She was published in The American Mercury Poetry Kaleidograph Indiana Poetry Magazine Weird Tales Bozart Westward Better Homes and Gardens Wings and the 1937 issue of American Women Poets among other magazines and was invited to join the Poetry Society of America in 1937. A unique collection of material documenting the literary achievements of a largely forgotten mid-20th century poet. (various) hardcover books
