1919WRCLIT73361Long Eaton 1919. Four volumes. Whole numbers 23 4 and 5. Quarto. Decorated wrappers. Some modest fraying or shallow chipping along a few overlap wrapper edges occasional light foxing first number pulled at staples otherwise very good. Early representative numbers of this annual published at the Long Eaton school which was found in 1910. While the indices of contributors yield up no names of literary stars the periodical is distinguished by the presence of tipped-in woodcuts some in color and examples of color stencil prints of embroidery designs. Number 3 is evidently wanting one of the woodcuts called for in the table which was evidently issued as a loose separate. Wrappers of two numbers denote it a 'Magazine' although the uniformity of 'Annual" is reflected on the title-pages. unknown books

Mailing information at rear wrap. Interior clean and bright. Very good. 12pp. <br/><br/>Catalog for the fall 1967 term at the Free School of New York also known as the Free University of New York.

This catalog which lists the school's 24 class offerings demonstrates a focus on the humanities with courses in filmmaking history fine arts and drama. Class offerings were predictably left-leaning with titles like "A Quest for Self" "The Thought of Mao Tse-Tung" and "Black Power and the "Ghetto Uprisings" and the faculty included counterculture figures such as Ed Sanders and Tuli Kupferberg. An ambitious and ephemeral offshoot of the 1960s counterculture movement FUNY closed after only a few years in operation. Free School of New York paperback books

Calvary Baptist Church emerged during the American Civil War establishing itself in the center of Washington in 1862. It was the locus of the forge for the Northern Baptist Convention in 1907 and calls itself still "the founding church of the American Baptist Convention." Education has been chief among its missions. The origin of the Gardez Class name is not explained but its membership - the 1924 roster appears on page 3 - was exclusively female. It is hard to resist speculation that the name derives from a famous nineteenth-century parable chronicling the life and moral temptations of a young working woman called The Factory Girl or Gardez la Coeur. The fate of the novel's author a surgeon with the 42nd Massachusetts Regiment who had perished at his post in 1863 would surely have resonated with a church whose founding had been so entwined with the Civil War and the Proclamation on 1 January of that year.
