Condition: one screen lacking one embossed leaf the other screen lacking four of the same and with one leaf almost detached; else fine.<br /> <br /> A handsome pair of embroidered hand-held fire screens probably from the first decades of the 19th century in fine condition.<br /> <br /> “A beautiful addition to any room decorative pole screens served an important function in the 18th century: The tall thin screens shielded people’s faces from the direct heat of the fire. In the 17th and 18th centuries both men and women wore makeup to hide blemishes. It was said that before he turned fifty the Prince Regent’s face had turned waxen and copper colored from make up. The cosmetic preparation worn to hide small pox was thick and made up of wax and white lead. The lead was toxic especially when warmed and the heat from a fire could be life threatening. A pole screen protected the face from intense heat and prevented the wax from melting and the cosmetics from interacting with the skin. The earliest panels were made of wicker but these were replaced with beautiful needlework or embroidered panels that came in many shapes and sizes – oval heart-shaped rectangular etc. By the late 18th century skin disfiguration caused by plagues was no longer as prevalent as before and smaller polescreens became more fashionable.â€- Jane Austen’s World website viewed 4-6-26. unknown

Short narrative descriptions of incidents involving radioactive materials together with a table of radiation exposures for AEC Contractor personnel are included because of their special interest to the atomic energy industry.

A serious accident was defined as an accident required to be reported immediately to Commission Headquarters and included any of the following: a fatalities; b government property damage of $5000 or more; c an external radiation exposure greater than 15 rems received over a short period of time; and d other injury or industrial illness no matter how slight of five or more persons in one accident and other defined accidents.

The information in this supplement pertaining to the 1962 experience includes those accidents and incidents designated at "Type A" and "Type B" along with a few others of a lesser degree of importance which may be of interest.

Good. iv 30 pages. Footnotes. 8 Charts. Cover has some wear and soiling. Ex-library with the usual library markings. This report includes narrative descriptions of accidents involving radiation reported to the Atomic Energy Commission by its contractors in 1957 and 1958. Data are also presented on occupational injuries and fatalities in all activities of the Atomic Energy Commission since the beginning of the AEC as a civilian agency Jan 1 1947 through Dec. 30 1958. Narrative descriptions are included on all fatal accidents during 1957 and 1958. The contents are: Industrial Injury Rates AEC Fatal Accident Experience A Summary of Accidents Involving Fatalities in Atomic Energy Activities 1957-58 Lost Time Injuries from Radiation and A summary of Accidents Involving Radioactive Materials in Atomic Energy Activities 1957-58. Where comparisons are made the latest data on injuries published by the National Safety Council were used. The Commission's injury rates taken as a whole including accidents involving nuclear radiation compare very favorably with the best rates in the National Safety Council's annual report. The over-all AEC injury frequency rate for several years has been second or third from the top. In most cases of strains and sprains workers were lifting improperly or failed to obtain proper assistance. Over 90 per cent of the fracture resulted either from workers falling from a different level or from falling objects striking the workers. The fatality rate was attributed to increased construction activity. It was noted that at all times the rate deaths per 100000 employees had been below the average industrial occupational fatality rate reported by the National Safety Council.

A new table of inadvertent criticality situations is included in this supplement through the courtesy of Mr. William Stratton of the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. Also included in this supplement is a tabulation of exposure records at values from zero to 15 rems which reflects a measure of the control of radiation in the work places in Commission operations. The contents include: Serious Accidents 1959-1960; AEC Industrial Injury Frequency Rates Criticality Accidents Radiation Exposure A Summary of Accidents Involving Radioactive Materials in AEC Activities 1959-1960 and A Summary of Accidents involving Fatalities in AEC Activities 1959-1960.

Oblong boudoir sepia-tinted photo image mounted on card stock 4.75 x 8.5 in. printed photographers’ logo on verso slight edgewear excellent image w/ lots of contrast. This excellent original photograph was taken just after the 1883 fire the first of two major fires to strike Astoria which was struck again in 1922. The image shows the smoldering fire with smoke blooming above what is now 13th and Exchange street. The fire started in the Clatsop Mill which was built along the shore with planer shavings and trash discarded below providing a ideal fuel for fires. In the 1880s all of downtown Astoria was built on pilings with no fire hydrants water buckets or fire brigades. By the time it was extinguished as shown in the photo the fire had destroyed all the structures on Commercial Street between 14th and 17th with damage totaling $ 2 million. Crow 1853-1925 had moved to Astoria in 1882 and would continue as photographer there until the end of the 19th century before moving to Portland OR.
