General wear each issue with a mailing label and owner signature two issues with inked tic marks next to an article or two and one with a small area of loss to the corner of the first leaf a very good set of a rather uncommon magazine.

[African Americana]: Williams, Georgia BlakemoreBiblio.com

Autograph Letter Signed from Georgia Blakemore Williams a Pioneering African-American Pharmacist While Still a Student at Meharry Medical School to Rev. A.T. Stewart of Tyler Texas

19205516Nashville: February 29 1920. Very good plus. 6pp. on plain paper with original transmittal envelope. Original mailing folds light wear. A friendly and informative correspondence written by Georgia Blakemore later Georgia Blakemore Williams while studying at the famed Meharry Medical College in Nashville. Georgia Blakemore Williams was born in Tennessee in 1883. She graduated from Tuskegee Institute at the turn of the century and worked as a teacher in the East Texas Baptist Academy and in the public schools around Tyler Texas in her early career. Georgia graduated from Meharry two years after the present letter was written and opened her own pharmacy in Tyler in 1923 called the People's Pharmacy. By 1930 Georgia married a laborer named E.Z. Williams; she was noted in the 1930 census as the owner/manager of a retail drug store. Her correspondent in the present letter was Rev. A.T. Stewart a distinguished pastor educator and author in Tyler in the first half of the 20th century who was apparently a mentor to Georgia. In the present letter Georgia reports on her life at Meharry in Nashville. She details the harsh winter weather "I am 'snow bound' as Whittier wrote" her recent illness "I had a dreadful cold and cough but have rid myself of both" missing a local public lecture but avoiding disease "I'm sorry as I wanted to hear Dr. Ellington at Ryman auditorium this P.M. on his famous annual sermon 'The Prodigal Son' but the flu and pneumonia are raging and I am taking no chances" joining a church "You speak about the minister and the church I joined. It is exactly the one on Spruce & Cedar below the capital" reporting on visitors "Prof. A.M. Moore was here Xmas visiting his sons in Rodger Williams" and more. In her most interesting passage Georgia reports on her studies and the atmosphere at Meharry: "I went over the top in one exam in pharmaceutical arithmetic. Made 100% does that sound like I'm working I hope so. The passing mark is 80 and so one has to work hard to even make that as these old instructors are so hard expect so much and explain so little." She reiterates that "I don't go out so much. Have to study too hard. Went to the theater once this year to see the Smarter set. Everybody here dances. My dept. will give a big ball in March but that leaves me out. I just go to school and back home." A rare letter from an important and hard-working African-American pharmacy student in the years before she worked in this monumentally challenging field especially for a Black woman in Jim Crow Texas. Georgia's letter is accompanied by a typed letter of recommendation from Reverend Stewart dated September 28 1919. In his recommendation Stewart describes Blakemore as "a young woman of sterling worth" who has "as a student distinguished herself for her diligence accuracy integrity and conscientious discharge of every duty." Stewart closes by writing: "I hereby cordially recommend her to all good people every where and especially to those to whom she may offer her service." A unique correspondence from an educated African-American woman getting even more professional education for her pharmacy career at the outset of the Roaring Twenties. February 29 unknown

Compliments of Rev. Fuller.Known Throughout the World as the Elephant Face Boy wrapper title and first line of text

19405368N.p. likely Georgia 1940. Very good. 4pp. on a single folded sheet. Illustrated portrait. Old folds minor wear and soiling. Former owner's pencil inscription and notations on front and rear covers. A seemingly unrecorded and intriguing ephemeral item presumably handed out during a preaching tour of Georgia around 1940 by an extraordinarily obscure African-American minister who billed himself as "Rev. Fuller The Elephant Face Boy." Very little is recorded about Reverend Fuller; the only mention we could locate occurs in the January 8 1940 edition of The Macon News mentioning Fuller's recent appearance in Dawson Georgia about 120 miles southwest of Macon: "Dawsonites listened to an 'elephant-faced' preacher recently when they were visited by 'the Rev. Fuller a colored preacher born part human and part elephant and known throughout the world.' Fuller is said to be the only of 13 children in his family born in his condition. He has a formation of an elephant ear that hangs 17 inches two normal ears and three eyes but can see out of only one. An elephant trunk formation hangs 24 inches." The present leaflet echoes some of the language in the news article touting Reverend Fuller as "The Elephant Face Boy -- Born Part Elephant and Part Human" mentioning that he is one of thirteen children "born in this condition" and describing the same physical features. Additionally the work states that Fuller was "born 41 years ago in Brazil South America" and that he was born presumably with elephantiasis "due to his mother attending a Circus during which the elephants went on stampede" after which she became "so frightened that when the child was born he was in this condition." The brochure also states that Fuller "eats from 5 to 6 meals daily and drinks from 7 to 10qts. of water" that his "mind is normal" and he has "traveled throughout the European countries.with some of the leading side shows and circus." The text concludes by mentioning that Fuller has "spent many weeks in Hospitals in different parts of the country and has been examined by leading Doctors and Specialists. They all pronounced him to be the strangest Curiosity on Earth alive." Interestingly unlike the newspaper article quoted above the text of the present work does not identify Fuller as someone of African descent. The text is illustrated with a full-page drawing of Fuller on the second page in which about half of his face is obscured. In the illustration Fuller does appear to be of African descent; whether he was born in Brazil of American parents or immigrated to the United States at a later time is unknown. In fact a great deal about Fuller is unknown and the present work provides a wonderful opportunity to dive deeper into the mystery. The leaflet is also interesting for its treatment of Fuller as a medical oddity. No other copies located in trade auction history or institutional records. unknown

Photograph Album Belonging to Mabel Williams of Atlanta Georgia Documenting High-School Life at Booker T. Washington High School Friends and Family 1940s-1950s

1950List1810Mostly Atlanta 1950. Leatherette album measuring 12 x 9 inches. With over 225 images most 4 ½ x 2 ¾ inches. Very well preserved and nearly complete with three empty slots about fine overall. Near Fine. A compelling visual record of the childhood of Mable Williams of Atlanta Georgia a high school student at Booker T. Washington High School in Atlanta the first public high school for African-American students in the state. Williams graduated from Booker T. Washington High School in 1953 per a newspaper article included here and would attend Spelman College. Composed mostly of snapshot photographs of her friends and family as a group the album provides a visual record of a vibrant network of family and friends in Atlanta during the time period. The album begins with a picture showing her as a girl alongside a picture of a house perhaps hers and traces her life through early adulthood through snapshots and family photographs. We find records of Williams performing at the Greater Atlanta Music Festival in 1950 as a representative of her high school. A newspaper article laid in shows Williams in a newspaper showing her graduation picture and stating that she will attend Spelman College in Atlanta in September of 1953. Pictures show her in New York City visiting a friend at N.Y.U. She would later marry Billy Reid a local jazz musician from Atlanta and would remain active in the Spelman community after graduating in 1957. Overall a very well preserved document of the African-American community in Atlanta during the 1940s and 1950s. unknown

Small Collection of Materials Related to the Afro-American Life Insurance Company

19495007Atlanta Ga 1949. Very good. Eight printed documents most completed in manuscript. Some folds mostly minor dust-soiling wear and creasing moderate toning and some unobtrusive chipping. An interesting group of documents issued from the Afro-American Life Insurance Company's Atlanta District during the Jim Crow period. The collection includes a Member's Receipt Book issued by an agent of the company in La Grange Georgia with twenty manuscript entries in pencil collecting weekly insurance dues for a policy holder named Minnie B. Reed over the course of a few months in 1949; a small folder issued to Reed presumably to hold her receipt book; four loose partially-printed receipts for premiums paid by a man named Paul Ealy also in 1949 completed in manuscript weekly payments for life insurance for both of these policy holders was twenty-five cents; and two blank application forms for the company's insurance service. The application forms include the company's home office address in Jacksonville Florida and indicates the company's expansion through the use of several ink stamps applied to most of the documents indicating the material emanated from the company's Atlanta office. The present grouping provides an interesting snapshot of insight into the company's activities costs and reach during the period just after World War II. "Florida's First African-American Insurance Company -1901-2001. The Afro-American Insurance Company formerly the Afro-American Industrial and Benefits Association was founded in 1901 to provide affordable health insurance and death benefits to the state's African-Americans.
