1959214441959. African American family photograph album late 1950s to 1960s documents domestic life interracial relationships and social networks in New York City during the Civil Rights era and provides direct visual evidence of everyday experience within Black urban communities at a moment of significant social change. The photographs record gatherings leisure and home environments alongside public street scenes capturing both private and public dimensions of life in mid century New York. The presence of interracial couples within intimate domestic settings situates the archive within evolving attitudes toward race and relationships during a period marked by legal segregation's dismantling and ongoing social resistance supporting research into African American history urban studies and the cultural history of the Civil Rights era.<br /> <br /> Approximately 107 black and white silver gelatin photographs many with date stamps from the late 1950s through the 1960s arranged in plastic sleeves most measuring approximately 5 x 3.5 inches. Images depict interior domestic scenes with family members gathered in furnished living rooms featuring mid century décor including televisions console stereos and framed artwork. Numerous photographs show interracial couples in relaxed poses dancing or attending house gatherings alongside children engaged in play and multigenerational family interaction. Music appears as a recurring element with records instruments and dancing featured prominently including one image showing a young woman dancing near a record player and a displayed album associated with jazz performance culture. Exterior scenes include New York City streets and transit locations such as the Dyckman Street subway platform with visible advertisements including Levy's rye bread and Seagram's 7 as well as campaign signage for judicial elections. Additional photographs depict waterfront transit commercial storefronts such as Buster Brown Shoes beach outings likely at Coney Island or Rockaway and suburban yard scenes suggesting leisure and possible residential mobility beyond the city.<br /> <br /> Produced during a period of expanding civil rights activism and cultural transformation these photographs document how African American families navigated urban life while building social and cultural spaces that extended across racial lines. The inclusion of interracial relationships within informal personal settings reflects changing social practices that were not always visible in public discourse while the emphasis on music dance and gathering highlights the role of cultural expression in community formation. Street imagery further situates the album within the commercial and political landscape of New York linking personal experience to broader urban change. As a cohesive archive the photographs provide a detailed record of family life social interaction and environment during a transformative period in American history. Minor wear to some prints with overall strong image clarity and preservation in sleeves; overall condition very good. unknown

18362516AMERICAN BOOK PRODUCTION OF THE 1830s - A REMARKABLE WELL PRESERVED SERIES <br />30 of 36 vols. 12mo. in sixes 16 x 10cms. original unbleached cotton front and rear covers and spines printed in black with a 'title page' inside a double line border on the front covers and lists of Harpers' Family Library and other series titles on rear covers some minor foxing or light browning of some spines cloth on some front covers foxed else in fine original condition. Rare thus. <br />Title pages signed at head "Samuel Hollingsworth. 1841". <br /><br />A remarkably well preserved example of mass-market American book production of the 1830s with most volumes dated 1839. This series lacks vol. 4 Demosthenes v.2; vol. 12 Virgil v.2; Vols. 25 26 and 28 Livy v. 2 3 & 5; and vol. 29 Herodutus v.1<br />The printing form J. & J. Harper was founded in 1817 by the devoutly Methodist brothers James and John Harper and they were joined by brothers Wesley and Fletcher 1823 and 1825 respectively. Due to their early adoption of stereotyping technology by 1825 they had become the largest volume publisher in New York City. "In the early republic . with a new zeal for social and moral reform many printers and publishers became advocates and effective propagandists for an ideology of literacy that equated reading with the development of public and private virtue. Their moral cause was to promote a reading-habit among the people as well as and to prescribe or select what the people read. In the new democracy with increasingly diverse suffrage and expanding boundaries they thought it was crucial that as many citizens and families as possible be educated and have the means of improving themselves their communities and their nation. In the 1830s the white population of the United States reached twelve million and had an adult literacy rate of over eighty-percent among the highest in the world. . But the problem was that these men and women were not reading the kinds of works that would improve them. Amidst an abundance of newspapers lives of bandits and novels of "a Gothic taste and overstrained morality" social reformers and some publishers recognized a need for more books of useful knowledge and moral wisdom" Freeman.<br />It was these conditions that enabled the success of the morally as well as commercially motivated Harper brothers. One of their tactics for encouraging repeated sales was books published in series called a 'Library'. The most successful of these was The Family Library which was published from 1830 to 1842 in 127 titles in 187 volumes mostly reprints of British material but including some original publications. Additionally this Classical Library ran to 36 volumes and their Boys' and Girls' Library to 27 volumes. The books were printed from stereotype plates and remained in print for more than twenty years after their completion. The books were both pocket size and "also relatively cheap selling for about forty-five cents each. In 1830 this was about one fourth of day's wage for an artisan half of a day's wage for a manual laborer and a full day's wage for an agricultural worker" Freeman. With its booming business with a name change to Harper & Brothers the family's social influence and in 1844 James Harper was elected major of New York. The firm continued to grow until in 1853 a devastating fire destroyed the Harper building and everything in it.Samuel Hollingsworth 1827-1884 later minister of the Episcopal Church at Greenfield Maryland in later years moved to Europe and these books moved with him.<br />Robert Freeman <i>Harper & Brothers' Family and School District Libraries 1830-1846</i> 2003 Purdue University Epubs online. <br /><i>Columbia University Archival Collections.</i> Introduction to their Harper Brothers archive online.
