1925194211925. Archive of a Texas African American family in Dallas in the 1920s small archive of 5 items with four photos and a 1925 graduation program for Booker T. Washington high school which was for many years the first and only high school for Black students in Dallas. Four black and white sepia toned photographs two with handwritten captions measuring between 2.5" x 3" and 3" x 4.5". These photos have been removed from album pages. Depicted are a couple a young man captioned "my sweetheart" a girl sitting outside a house and a group of friends perched atop a stone wall captioned "a happy moment of my life". These photos are undated but are connected to the 1925 graduation program and depict several high school aged kids so they were likely taken around the same time. Alongside the commencement program there is a separate booklet with a class roll for Washington High School's 1925 class which despite being the only high school for Black kids in Dallas has a rather small graduating class of 39 of which only 13 were boys. The class motto for the school was "Solidarity" and its class flowers were a white carnation and a fern. The commencement speech was given by J.F. Williams president of Paul Quinn College of Waco Texas a historically black Methodist college. This archive is an interesting piece of regional history. Photos were removed from album pages with glue on versos overall In good condition overall. unknown

1890425898Roxbury Massachusetts 1890. Unbound. Near Fine. Three gelatin silver photographs mounted on cards with the image size measuring 6.5" x 4.5" and the card measuring 12" x10". Some silvering at the edge of one image else fine. The images capture a group of women posing by a stairwell with one woman on an early telephone playing cards around a table and enjoying music being played on a mandolin and piano which is topped with a minora. The house is finely decorated and the woman are all nicely dress; obviously a family with some mean.

43550Square octavo 180 x 145 mm original grey cloth over boards minor staining the front board embroidered in blue thread 'Album'; front pastedown with small ownership label of C. J. MacNaughton; containing approx. 30 pages with original drawings by three competent amateur artists mainly in pen and ink but some in watercolour or pencil which accompany numerous popular children's verses and rhymes all handwritten in ink plus a number of original humorous illustrations with captions; all of the works are signed by the artists most with the initials M. M. but some with A. M. or R. M.; the authors whose work is illustrated include Eugene Field 1850-1895 Jane Taylor 1783-1824 and Ann Taylor 1782-1866 Randolph Caldecott 1846-1886 Edward Lear 1812-1888 William Allingham 1824-1889 Charles Perrault 1628-1703 and Samuel Taylor Coleridge 1772-1834; last 30 pp. blank; very clean throughout. The subject matter of the satirical illustrations in this charming little album - and the use of the Scots vernacular in their captions - makes it fairly evident that the MacNaughtons were a Scottish family. As far as we can ascertain all of the highly accomplished pen and ink sketches which illustrate the popular verse in the album are also entirely original in the sense that they have not been merely copied from publications. hardcover

1855List3242Newport Rhode Island: N.p. 1855. Broadside measuring 21 ¾ x 10 inches folded with some damage to edges with two holes in the center intersecting with text. Very good to excellent. A HAP-HAZARD SONG was written around 1855 by an author using the pseudonym “Miss Terious Devil-up-mentsâ€. It concerns the legal cases of Ives vs. Hazard and Ives vs. Armstrong which involved a dispute over the sale of a farm belonging to Charles T. Hazard a less well-off cousin in the prominent Hazard family. Hazard assisted by his better-known cousin Thomas R. Hazard wanted to back out of the sale of his farm to wealthy Providence merchant Robert H. Ives claiming that his wife had not agreed to it. In 1855 the court decided against Hazard. The broadside mocks the Hazards’ efforts; it opens by telling the story of an “insane jackass†later “Assard†i.e. Hazard who is stung to death by bees and has its hide used to bind Thomas Hazard’s 1857 book concerning the case An Appeal to the People of the State of Rhode Island in Behalf of the Constitution and Laws. It then launches into a parodical song which seems to allege that it was Thomas Hazard not Mrs. Charles Hazard who wanted to keep the farm and that Hazard’s book accused Ives of greed when it was really the Hazards who were greedy; and mocks the opposition to farmland being sold off to the wealthy merchant class:<br /> <br /> “Then they made tremendous speeches / All about ‘the rights of man’ / Which literally translated means / ‘Each one get all you can!’â€<br /> <br /> The chorus which is “to be sung ironically†reads:<br /> <br /> “Ho! Yeomen of Rhode Island / Wherever you may stand / The farms belong to all of us / It is our Native Land.â€<br /> <br /> We find nine copies of A HAP-HAZARD SONG on OCLC. N.p. unknown
