1930413180Ypsilanti Michigan / Virginia / California 1930. Softcover. Very Good. Oblong octavo measuring 8" x 6". 59pp. String-tied black leather over stiff paper boards. Contains 218 gelatin silver black and white or sepia toned photographs measuring between 2.5" x 1.5" and 4.5" x 2.75" with captions with additional ephemera from 1924 to 1930. Tears and chips with some pages detached but present thus very good with near fine photographs with tiny tears and creases. <br /> <br /> The photo album contains a plethora of photographs featuring Esther Davis and her adventures. Most pictures are of the three Davis daughters; Alice Rachel and Esther either posed or candid shots with their friends taken at Michigan State Normal College in Ypsilanti Michigan. Esther Davis is seen dancing and smiling with all her glee club members standing outside wearing fancy clothing or costumes and graduating high school and college. Esther Davis lived in the Bessie Leach Priddy House a sorority at Michigan State Normal College. <br /> <br /> While most of the pictures are from Michigan some are labeled from places in Virginia and California. Two of which feature photos of Mary Pickford on the set of Little Annie Rooney which was being filmed in West Hollywood California. Pickford was 33 at the time of filming but played a spry and determined young Irish girl. The movie became one of the highest grossing films of 1925. Pickford is seen smiling with the cast in one photo and then posing in the other. Both photos are fine with "Mary Pickford in ‘Annie Roonie" written on the bottom edge. <br /> <br /> An interesting collection of photographs from a young woman during 1924 to 1930 documenting her adventures with friends and family completing her education and her encounter with Mary Pickford. unknown

"In making a second collection of masterpieces of paintings that have given pleasure and afforded inspiration to many generations of mankind I have endeavoured to represent several great painters who did not appear in my former volume of which this is in some measure a continuation. Crivelli Luini Giorgione Moroni Landseer Mantegna and Perugino are among those who were left out of Great Pictures for lack of space. Even now looking at the two volumes together many favourite pictures will be missed; but it must be remembered how impossible it is to include within the limits of two small books every work that justly holds a firm place in the affections of all who love and reverence great art." ---- from the Preface.

A bright and attractive copy with just a bit of foxing to verso of frontispiece and toning to last few leaves. Contemporary ink gift inscription to upper flyleaf: "Mary Tollmash Clements - A birthday gift from her affectionate father." Very Good<br /> <br /> A collection of six stories by Esther Copley 1786 - 1851 an abolitionist children's author and public health advocate born in London to parents of Huguenot origin. Her tracts included Hints on the Cholera morbus 1832 a guide to remedies and prevention of cholera and domestic tracts for the working class that included information on childbirth and other health topics. Her numerous works for young readers included collections of stories for middle- and working-class children as well as nonfiction like The Young Reviewers 1821 which introduced children to literary criticism; Scripture Natural History for Youth 1828; and A History of Slavery and its Abolition 1836. A History of Slavery was a crucial work "tracing the course of slavery from scriptural times to Copley's own day. Her youthful audience was spared neither graphic descriptions of the sufferings of black slaves in the West Indies nor lengthy accounts of the proceedings of the anti-slavery movement" Oxford DNB. Copley's work remains "a witness to the significant commitment of nonconformist women to the anti-slavery cause" ibid. Very Good . Printed for Houlston and Co unknown
