The Flaming Sword - Vol.XLII Nos. 1-12 January - December 1928

192846058Estero FL: Guiding Star Publishing House 1928. First Edition. Twelve quarto issues 31.5cm; illustrated wrappers stapled; 16pp per issue. Seven of the twelve issues with brass eyelets along left edge one with eyelets removed; all issues show modest wear oxidation to staples some scattered soil light biopredation and occasional staining to wrappers; several with vertical folds smoothed-out; small loss to lower corner of Dec.1928 issue; contents fairly clean and complete with some occasional notes in the margins; Good to Very Good. Complete year of this periodical formerly edited and written by Dr. Cyrus R. Teed a Utica NY native and founder of the Koreshan Unity. "Koreshanity" as it was also known was born in the wake of two related movements: the millenial fervor that swept early-to-mid-19th century central and western New York State and the utopian communalism that began attracting increasing numbers of adherents during the same period and into the later 19th century." A graduate of Eclectic Medical College of the City of New York Teed's interests went beyond medicine to encompass alchemy botany physics and metaphysics and he would regularly conduct experiments in these areas inside his medical laboratory. It was in this laboratory in 1869 that "Teed conceived what would become known as Koreshanity after experiencing a late-night religious vision. During what he called his "illumination" he saw a beautiful woman who revealed to him a series of universal truths which formed the fundamental principles of Koreshan belief." Among Teed's most interesting beliefs was cellular cosmogony or the hollow earth - the notion that the earth was not a convex sphere but instead a hollow concave cell containing the entire universe with the sun at its center. After failed attempts at founding communal settlements in Moravia Syracuse and New York City Teed moved to Chicago IL where his persuasive oratory enabled him to assemble a firm core of followers in the late 1880's and form the commune called Beth-Ophra. Teed incorporated his organization there as the College of Life in 1886 and established a printing house that began producing three major publications: The Guiding Star The Flaming Sword and The Plowshare and Pruning Hook. "These publciations began a long legacy of Koreshan publishing aimed at the public as well as their own members intended to explain and promote their beliefs relate and preserve their story and discuss political social scientific and religious ideas and issues." Believing himself to be a messiah who would lead his people in establishing a New Jerusalem Teed assumed the name Koresh in 1891 after Cyrus the Great King of Persia. As with his previous locations Teed's beliefs did not endear him or his followers to the general public forcing him to relocate from Chicago to the quiet beach town of Estero FL in 1894 the final home of the Koreshan Unity where Teed would establish his New Jerusalem. It was here that the Koreshan Unity established a growing self-sustaining community though at the height of the movement their membership numbered no more than 250. Though Teed died in December 1908 The Flaming Sword continued to be published from Estero through the 1960's with the Koreshan publishing tradition continuing well into the 1980's.

THE HOME-SEEKER'S GREATEST OPPORTUNITY. FLORIDA LAND

1911WRCAM55624Jacksonville Fl.: Sutherland McConnel & Co. 1911. Broadside 24 1/4 x 18 1/4 inches. Faint tideline along right edge and bottom edge. Very good. A dazzling large-format promotional real estate poster touting the wonders of the Sunshine State in the early 20th century. Issued a decade before the Florida land boom really caught fire this broadside is emblematic of the promotions that led thousands to invest in their savings for the dream of a quick profit or a comfortable retirement. Advertising language is incorporated into and ranged around & inside a large arch with a citrus and floral background and two large pillars. The poster was commissioned by the Colonization Department of Sutherland McConnel & Company a Jacksonville real estate development company and was designed for use by Auck Brothers agents for Sutherland McConnel in Bucyrus Ohio. Among the "1000000 acres to choose from" speculators and farmers are called to the "First Grand Opening" of land in Duval County "generally considered to be the best tract for general farming purposes in the State of Florida.some 27000 acres in extent virtually in a solid body commencing within ten miles of the heart of the city of Jacksonville a most patronized South- Atlantic seaport." The poster touts Florida for its virgin soil pure water good schools fine churches a healthful climate big crops altitude and drainage and more. Two small "coupons" are incorporated at the bottom of the poster encouraging the interested real estate buyer to "Tear this off and mail today without fail!!" One is an order form for a promotional catalog entitled "Will Florida Land Earn Money." The other coupon reserves "a berth for me in your Special Sleeping Cars for the LandSeeker's Excursion on the First or Third Tuesday in February March or April 1911."

African American Photographica: FloridaABAA

PAIR OF COMMERCIALLY-PRODUCED PHOTOGRAPH ALBUMS FEATURING LARGE-FORMAT IMAGES OF AFRICAN-AMERICANS AND OTHER LABORERS ON A POTATO FARM IN FLORIDA

1920WRCAM54681Hastings Fl 1920. Two volumes. Eighteen sepia-toned photographs each approximately 7 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches. Oblong quarto. Contemporary black leatherette all photographs linen-backed and bound in on stubs. Mild shelf wear. Photographs in excellent condition. A very interesting pair of photo albums with large-format images featuring African- American field workers and other manual laborers working for Superior Brand New Potatoes in Florida in the early 20th century. The photographs were professionally produced by the Higginbotham Photo Company of Dallas Texas with their paper label affixed to the inside front cover of each album. Ten of the eighteen photographs feature African- American laborers in the fields on tractors posed outside the processing area or on trucks loading freight trains. Of the ten photographs four are unique examples and three are present in duplicate. In addition to the African-American workers several shots feature poor white laborers processing potatoes including one shot of workers using a Boggs Potato Grader. Hastings became the "Potato capital of Florida" in the early 1900s after Thomas Horace Hastings established a 1569-acre plantation to grow winter vegetables. Soon he switched to potatoes and by 1917 he enjoyed great success. Hastings remains an important agricultural center today serving as the packing and shipping center for a tri- county consortium of potato farmers with farms that also produce cabbage onions eggplant and other vegetables. hardcover books
