By Mike Prero Well, Right Off the Bat, I'm at a Disadvantage Here Because RMS BULLETIN NO. 574 May/June 2015 by Mike Prero Well, right off the bat, I‘m at a disadvantage here because these photos don‘t demonstrate what a Filigree actually is. The scanner can‘t capture the relief surface of the matchcover—the ups and down—and that‘s what a filigree is: a cover with a random, plastic-bubbled surface. Aside from the bubbles, themselves, these covers have the same feel as a Uniglo—a soft, plastic, almost ―oily,‖ feel. The bubbling is random, which I stress because when you find the bubbling channeled into designs, you‘ve crossed over from a Filigree to a type of Florentine. In any event, it‘s the feel of a Filigree that tells you right away that this is not an ordinary cover, that it‘s something special. And, special it is, which is why it‘s collected as its own category. Uniglo and Florentine are both Universal trademarks, so it‘s not surprising to see, then, that Filigree, itself, was a Universal Match Corp. trademark for such covers. Universal produced them from 1969 to 1987. They were quite a popular type of ‗Fancy‖ cover, judging from the numbers that exist— and from how many of the competing match manufacturers copied the process. Lion had its Stipple Finish; Maryland had its Rhapsody; Monarch/Superior had its Orleans; etc. continued on p.3 2 RMS Bulletin May/June 2015, No. 574 The President’s Message Greetings to all. I have just returned from the FUN IN THE SUN! JOIN US IN SAN DIEGO! Southern Swapfest in Altamonte Springs, FL. I think that I can safely say that it was a great April 30 and May 1, 2015 success. Certainly, there were plenty of covers to be had; and the auctions were active. Coming up next is the Trans Canada Swapfest being held in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario on April 30th, May st nd 1 and 2 . By the time this bulletin comes out, this event will be over. I would ask that perhaps you would consider attending this swapfest in 2016. Our Canadian friends attend so many swapfests and conventions, it would be nice if we could attend their event next year. Coming up, also, is the UES swap in Hagerstown, MD. The dates are June 3-6, 2015.

There are lots of Fancies to be seen in any Bank collection, and that includes Filigrees. And the variety of Filigrees is very satisfying, indeed—20s, 30s, 40s, Filigree Jewels and Jewelites; even Filigree American Ace boxes; all in singles and in beautiful sets. I don‘t remember ever seeing any Filigree 10s, though. Can‘t see any in my own collection. There is a listing of Filigree covers, but users should definitely be aware that it includes Filigree- like covers—IF you only look at the term ―Filigree‖ as meaning the Universal covers. The listing, then, is actually a ―Filigree-like‖ listing, wherein any cover that is an actual Filigree or like a Filigree is included. The original listing was initiated by Jim Moffett and then taken over by Evelyn Hovious. Ruth Richmond handled the list from 1981-1989, taking the list up to 6,063. Margo Houser added a supplementary list of older issues not yet listed. Today the list is dormant. There are still many unlisted covers, but no one has stepped forward to continue the listing. The first listed 150 Filigrees were made by Universal. However, by June 1970, Atlas Match, using a similar process, issued its first Filigree-type match, #152 on the Filigree list. This matchcover has a much different pattern, but is still of the Filigree type. Atlas also issued 3 covers from the China Doll in San Diego. These covers are perhaps the hardest to obtain of the early filigrees. Monarch Match, joining Atlas and Universal, issued its first Filigree-like cover early in 1972. This cover is #564 on the Filigree list. By then, Atlas had issued 5 covers and Universal, who owned the trade name Filigree, 458 covers. Soon, most of the major match companies had climbed on the band wagon and issued Filigree-like matches. There have been many sets, 31 single jewels and many 10 strikes. One of the earliest dated Filigrees is dated ―1881-1971‖. Many banks had Filigree sets consisting of from 2 to 16 covers to a set, with captions or information about the bank‘s services on the inside. The Marines and the Navy also issued Filigree Jewelites in their recruiting campaigns. The early Filigrees are scarce (only a caddy or so was issued with a case of regularly ordered matches). Unfortunately, and to my way of thinking, inexplicably, collecting interest in all of the Fancies has drastically dwindled since the late 1980s. But, I have a theory as to why. I believe that collectors are more concerned with cover subject matter than cover beauty or quality....hmmmmmm. The largest collection I know of was that of Helen Hollmann, PA, who reported having 11,318 in November 2010, so this is a big category! This would be a good time to start collecting Filigrees; they should be easily available. 4 RMS Bulletin May/June 2015, No. 574 Editorial An Exercise in Heresy I happened to be talking to Loren Moore, CA, the other day (oh oh!), and he brought up a subject that, in all my 31 years in the hobby, I had never be- fore heard seriously broached—changing the name of our organization. I have to admit that over the years it had certainly occurred to me that ―Rathkamp Matchcover Soci- ety‖ was probably not the best of names for our hobby organization, but listening to Loren‘s arguments for a name change put it all into a meaningful perspective. Already I can hear the legions screaming, ―WHAT!!! Change the name after all the time, effort, and expense we‘ve put into establishing name recognition?!‖ Well, that was the main point..We have no name recognition. There are some 320 million people in the U.S. How many do you think have ever heard of the Rathkamp Matchcover Society? They haven‘t even heard of the hobby, much less our spe- cific club. RMS has had a publicity budget for years, but it obviously is not working. Most new mem- bers are brought in by our web site [and, thus, we should be advertising on the internet]. Library dis- plays, newspaper and magazine articles about collectors here and there are nice, but they reach an in- finitesimally small number of people. Name recognition of any hobby organization is miniscule, but RMS doesn‘t even register on the meter. Loren brought up another good point in that our current name may actually deter people from join- ing! There is no other hobby organization, certainly no major one, named after an individual. Doing so immediately makes the organization look provincial instead of all-encompassing. When Bill Retskin started his own club, for example, he knew what he was doing when he named it the ―American Match- cover Collecting Club‖ instead of ―Bill‘s Matchcover Club‖. Point three: The word ―Society‖ implies a social theme, and, while some may rejoice in that, that‘s not what we‘ve banded together for. Although, I admit it could be worse. The original name of our or- ganization was the ―Rathkamp Memorial Society of Match Cover Collectors‖. At least we dropped the ‘Memorial‘, but notice that we also dropped the ‘collecting‘ aspect! ―Society,‖ even ―Club,‖ also implies responsibilities when one joins, Loren pointed out, and I doubt if anyone could characterize today‘s society as being as socially responsible as that of our father‘s and grandfather‘s. People don‘t want to be locked into club meetings, schedules, demands for volunteer work, etc. ―Changing the name just to change the name won‘t do much.

  • Mcbrier History 1
    McBRIER GENEALOGY xi FOREWORD The compilation of this genealogy has been an interesting and rewarding experience. At the beginning it seemed a comparatively easy task; but before proceeding far I discovered that my knowledge of the historical facts relating to my family was meager and exceedingly hazy. I was well acquainted with most of my relatives—had known them all my life; but, in writing a sketch of the life of a particular person, dependable factual material was essential. Impressions, general ideas, or hearsay did not afford a basis for a reliable record. Even dates were uncertain and records were conflicting. Dates of births, of deaths, and of marriages were frequently recorded differently in various places, and which of these to accept as authentic was often a problem. Several avenues of approach were necessary in order to verify a given date or incident. It is a source of disappointment to one seeking information from the town and county records in the rural districts of many of our older states, to find that there are few dependable records of vital statistics prior to 1880. Unlike the newer states, where state organizations were set up soon after statehood was granted, such important data was supposed to be kept by a local town clerk or other official, but no uniform system was followed. Entries depended upon the ability and interest of the local political officeholder at the time; and many such records are glaring examples of incompetency; moreover, in many cases the recording of such data was begun only in recent years. In the English Commonwealth, church records are universally reliable.

  • A Potted History of Woolworths Stores
    A potted history of Woolworths stores F.W. Woolworth was the retail phenomenon of the twentieth century - a shop for masses that sold factory made goods at rock bottom prices. It was the first brand to go global, building to more than 3,000 near identical stores across the world. At its height it generated such fabulous riches that its founder was able to build the world's tallest building and pay for it in cash. It shares were the gold standard of the exchanges in New York and London, paying dividends that others could only dream of. To become a Woolworth supplier was considered a licence to print money. Part of its magic was an ability to adapt to fit into different local communities and to 'go native', without sacrificing its uniqueness. Shoppers in the UK considered 'Woolies' as British as fish and chips, while Americans continued to call the chain 'the five and ten' more than sixty years after it dropped its fixed price formula. But, having risen like a meteor, all the way to the top, it faded in the 1990s into a peaceful retirement in the USA and Canada before falling like a stone in the UK in 2008. Woolworths UK went from normal trading in 800 stores to complete shutdown in just 41 days. In Germany the chain faced a similar fate a few months later. In both Countries the brand was soon revived on-line. There can be little doubt that if Frank Woolworth was starting out today it would be on the Internet, with its low costs and mass reach.

  • The Ol' 5 and 10
    The Ol’ 5 and 10 Woolworth’s, Kress...I remember them. Time’s change. Now the closest we have is 99¢ stores. Woolworth’s characterizes the 5 and 10 cent stores the best, perhaps... The F. W. Woolworth Company was a retail company that was one of the original pioneers, and arguably the most successful American and international five-and-dime stores, setting trends and creating the modern retail model which stores follow today, worldwide. The first Woolworth store was opened by Frank Winfield Woolworth on February 22, 1878, as "Woolworth's Great Five Cent Store" in Utica, New York. Though it initially appeared to be successful, the store soon failed. Searching for a new location, a friend suggested Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Using the same sign from the Utica store, Frank opened his first successful "Woolworth's Great Five Cent Store" on July 18, 1879, in Lancaster. Frank brought his brother, Charles Sumner Woolworth, who went by the nickname "Sum", into the business. The two Woolworth brothers pioneered and developed merchandising, direct purchasing, sales and customer service practices commonly used today. By 1904, there were six chains of affiliated stores operating in the United States and Canada. Between 1905 and 1908, members of the Woolworth Syndicate followed Frank's lead to incorporate their businesses. Sum maintained that he did not need to incorporate his stores. In 1912 the syndicate agreed to a scheme crafted by Frank Woolworth: to join forces and incorporate as one corporate entity under the name "F. W. Woolworth Company" in a merger of all 596 stores. The stock flotation raised over $30 million for the five founders of the merged chains.

  • “Almost Too Terrible to Believe”: the Camilla, Georgia, Race Riot and Massacre, September 1868
    “Almost Too Terrible to Believe”: The Camilla, Georgia, Race Riot and Massacre, September 1868 A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School Valdosta State University in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in History in the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences May 2012 Joshua William Butler BA, Valdosta State University, 2009 © Copyright 2012 Joshua William Butler All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Camilla, Georgia, became the site of a racially motivated political riot on Saturday, September 19, 1868. Determined to promote political and social reform with an organized rally, at least 150 freedmen, along with Republican political candidates, advanced toward the town’s courthouse square. Local citizens warned the black and white activists of the impending violence and demanded that they forfeit their guns, even though carrying weapons was customary at the time. The marchers refused to give up their guns and continued to the courthouse square, where local whites fired upon them. This assault forced the Republicans and freedmen to retreat as locals gave chase, killing an estimated fifteen protestors and wounding forty others. The Camilla Massacre was the culmination of smaller acts of violence committed by white inhabitants that had plagued southwest Georgia since the end of the Civil War. Local whites had individually attacked freedmen and white Republicans for three years without repercussion. That lack of punishment assured the perpetrators that violence was a legitimate way to oppose black activism. At the same time, Camilla was part of a broader attempt across the South to keep former slaves and their Republican leaders in line.

(AECOM) of Arlington County, Virginia conducted a cultural resources survey of Lee Highway (US Route 29), in Arlington County, between January 2019 and February 2020. The Lee Highway Cultural Resources Survey is a component of the larger “Plan Lee Highway” project, a long-range plan and comprehensive vision for the Lee Highway corridor conducted by AECOM for the CPHD. The Lee Highway Cultural Resources Survey consisted of the following tasks: 1) Meetings; 2) Background Research; 3) Field Investigation; and 4) Report of Findings. The survey was conducted by AECOM’s Secretary of the Interior (SOI)-qualified architectural historians, who attended numerous in- person and telephone meetings with CPHD staff as well as three public meetings, and submitted weekly progress reports to the CPHD during the field work phase. Working with both CPHD staff and the general public, AECOM developed a list of 120 resources (buildings, structures, objects, and sites) within the Plan Lee Highway study area to be researched, surveyed, and documented either at the reconnaissance level (105) or in-depth level (15).

  • Cleveland Architects Database
    Clevland Landmarks Commission Cleveland Architects Database The following is a listing of architects and master builders that have worked in Cleveland, from the 1820’s until the 1930’s. Discovering which architects designed certain buildings was determined by utilizing several sources, including the City of Cleveland Building Permits, and publications that included American Architect and Builder News, Inland Architect, Interstate Architect, the Ohio Architect and Builder, the Annals of Cleveland, the Plain Dealer, the Leader, the Press, Material Facts, the Bystander, and Cleveland Town Topics. The Cleveland Public Library card index for Architect’s in the Fine Arts Department was used. Books on Cleveland Architecture that were consulted included Cleveland Architecture 1876 – 1976, and the American Institute of Architects Guide to Cleveland Architecture were consulted. A catalogue of architectural drawings maintained by the Western Reserve Historical Society was consulted. The Cleveland Necrology file maintained by the Cleveland Public Library, the United States Census, and Cleveland City Directories were consulted in compiling this database. For the purposes of this database an architect was defined as anyone that called himself or herself as an architect. Robert Keiser compiled the Cleveland Architects as a hobby in after work hours over several years. This project terminates with 1930. Local building activity was severely curtailed by the Great Depression, and did not recover until the 1950’s. Many of the references in the database have
