193114390Minden LA 1931. Very Good. Minden LA: 1931. Original black and white photograph 15.5x25.5cm. depicting the girls' basketball team alongside their coach Mr. Russ each player identified in ink manuscript along bottom of image. Photograph slightly curled with very small flaw at bottom of image else Very Good overall. Misidentifying manuscript label mounted to verso identifying the team in "Shreveport LA / Circa 1947 / Washington ".<br /> <br /> The label is a red herring misdating and misplacing the photograph sixteen years late and thirty miles west. The center player holds a basketball dated '31 nineteen years before Booker T. Washington High School was founded. The school almost certainly is Webster High School in Minden Louisiana thirty miles east. The building in the background and the women's slightly mismatching uniforms conform to those depicted in W.L.G. Abney's 1950s booklet "The History of Webster High School." Indeed the simple whitewashed wooden structure sitting on a brick pile foundation appears to be either the back of the dormitory or the newly-completed library the ground still unpaved dirt. <br /> <br /> The story of the founding of Webster High School less than ten years earlier in 1922 displays the dedication and financial burden of a Black community in the heart of the Jim Crow South. According to Abney's history a Colored Board of Trustees comprised of members of the community first set out to find a suitable site for a new school settling on a piece of land "owned and occupied as a home by one of Minden's colored citizens Mr. Henry Harris who was perfectly happy there and had no desire to sell." Abney glosses over the displacement of Harris but the site was secured and approved by the White Parish board "with the understanding that the colored people themselves would have to make substantial financial contribution if they were to secure this site because no money had been budgeted for the cause at that time." Indeed by 1931 the list of state-sponsored schools in Louisiana for White and Black students was sixty-eight to four. Webster was not one of those four schools. <br /> <br /> As Abney's history delineates however the money was raised by the community through the leadership and outreach of the Colored Board of Trustees and by 1931 a library had been erected and numerous sports teams active. The date is also significant as it coincides with the founding of two of the first all-Black all-women's professional basketball clubs the Philadelphia Tribune Girls and the Chicago Romas. Perhaps these pioneering teams inspired the formation of Webster High School's girls' basketball team. In any case the members listed are as follows: Coach Mr. Russ Tena Lowery Hazel Garrett Willie Stewart B. Green M. Ford Bran Watson M. Gafford E. McCorey Ella B. Gafford Lorscie Henry and Louella Ruffin. unknown

1930176834Chefoo: Self-help Department Women's Bible School Presbyterian Mission c.1930. A dainty album of handmade papercuts by Chinese students at the Ai Dao Women's Bible School attached to the American Presbyterian Mission in Chefoo. Throughout the 1930s the school produced various themed papercut collections to raise funds and comparison with other copies of the same title reveals that each was bound in brocade of a unique design. The collection tells the story of seven moral exemplars who all displayed obedience and respectfulness towards their elders even when faced with hardships. The story of Jiang Si is typical: "The mother of this boy demanded fish to eat every day and insisted that all their food be cooked in spring water. This kept the family hard pressed as the son had to waste half of each working day while fishing. His little wife had to make a long trip to get the spring water also. But they did this uncomplainingly till in appreciation of such devotion the fairies gave them a wonderful spring right by their door and in it each day they found two fish!" The education of women became a priority for social reformers in the wake of the May Fourth Movement and schools like Ai Dao were at the forefront of this revolution in education. Landscape octavo 181 x 234 mm ff. 8. Papercut showing a master and his student mounted on title page 7 similar papercuts with captioned glassine guards. Original decorative silk brocade black thread xianzhuang stitching edges untrimmed. Explanatory sheet loosely inserted as issued. Light rubbing explanatory sheet creased and nicked in one corner: a fine copy. unknown

19505036Washington DC: Cortez W. Peters Business School 1950. About very good. 60pp. Original purple wrappers printed in silver. Some soiling and staining to covers minor chipping and rubbing. Small unobtrusive stain to fore-edge of text overall even toning. A seemingly-unrecorded yearbook from the Washington D.C. branch of the Cortez W. Peters Business School the first African-American-owned business school in the United States. The co-educational school was founded in 1834 in the Nation's Capital followed in the next few years by branches in Chicago and Baltimore. The founder Cortez W. Peters taught himself to type as a child and went on to become the first African-American champion of the World's Amateur Typing Contest. Peters' school was one of the first to teach typing to Black students while also offering instruction in shorthand and other clerical skills. The present yearbook begins with a message from Peters which strikes a conciliatory tone in the wake of racial tensions that followed the conclusion of the Second World War: "We naturally resent discrimination lack of opportunities oppression.But on the other hand there are many other values to be considered which should make us tolerant and willing to work out these traditional handicaps generally." This is followed by messages from the dean and class president Eva Itene Brown then portraits of students and faculty a class history a class prophecy class will class poem and twelve pages of group photographs including shots of the men's and women's basketball teams the coronation ball and images featuring students in the classroom. Many of the students both men and women have included words of advice or stated their personal goals which are printed beside their portraits "To be a good typist" "To be a stenographer" and so forth.<br /> <br /> OCLC lists a single copy of three similar yearbooks all under different titles from other years and branches of the school Washington D.C. and Chicago in 1948 and an undated yearbook from Baltimore but not this particular year at the school's home base.
