[ADVERTISING] [TOBACCO] Tobacco card Album of Worlds Beauties: Second Series. Richmond, Virginia: Allen & Ginter, 1889. Approximately 6.5” x 8”. Complete with 12 unnumbered leaves. Each leaf contains 4 full-color portraits of female actresses, comediennes, singers, etc. Two additional portraits illustrate the front cover. Hardcover with illustrated applique on front and back. This album is identified as A15 in The American Trade Card Catalog and the illustrated cards are from the N27 series. Sound binding; top of front hinge just starting to split. Internally clean. Some soiling and wear to the cover. This is an uncommon hardcover edition of a cigarette card album issued as a premium by Allen & Ginter Tobacco Company; most albums consist solely of string- bound cardboard leaves. In this example, the illustrations have been affixed to thick cardstock leaves and bound in cloth covered boards. Although unusual, there are examples of other tobacco cards albums being issued in a similar binding. Scarce. While string-bound sets of this album occasionally surface on eBay, as of 2017, Worthpoint shows no hardcover editions having been sold through any on-line venue. No hardcover or string-bound auction records are listed at ABPC or the Rare Book Hub and no examples of either are for sale in the trade. $200 Read’Em Again Books #8770 2. [ADVERTISING] [CALLING CARDS] Salesman’s sample book of calling cards. Northford, Connecticut: Stevens Bro’s, circa 1890. This “Agent’s Sample Book” measures approximately 4.5” x 7” and contains over thirty pages holding almost 100 different calling card samples. All of the cards are in nice shape and have been pasted/glued to the album’s disbound pages. The cover and pages show some light wear; the gilt lettering on the cover is clear and legible. The cards vary in style and decoration. Some simple, some ornate, some die-cut. Many show flowers, some feature hands, birds, shells, butterflies, and agricultural implements or scenes. One is illustrated with a giant Uncle Sam waving a flag while dancing on the roofs of railroad passenger cars. One similar salesman’s sample book is held by the Connecticut Historical Society. $300 Read’Em Again Books #8709 Click on any inventory # or the first picture in a listing for more information, additional larger images, or to make a purchase. 3. [ADVERTISING] [MILITARY & WAR] [TOBACCO] Collection of 345 Sweet Caporal military uniform tobacco cards. New York: Kinney Tobacco Company, circa 1890. These 345 advertising cards are affixed to pages within a standard commercial quarter-leather notebook. The cards, which measure 1 3/8” x 2 3/4” are pasted/glued to the album’s pages. 220 of the cards have white backgrounds; 125 of the cards have colored backgrounds. Almost all of the card fronts are in very good condition; a few have some edge-wear. No attempt has been made to remove the cards from the album. The pages are attached, but the spine is worn and the binding fragile. These cards are from a popular set (See Burdick, N224). Some of the cards were issued with white backgrounds, others with colored backgrounds. Each individual card illustrates a different military uniform from ancient times until the then present day, and Kinney Brothers was actively soliciting military organizations to submit pictures of their uniforms for inclusion in the set; the reverse of some cards contains the text “This is the most complete and correct collection of military and naval uniforms throughout the world. Regiments forwarding COLORED sketches will be included as rapidly as possible. Also Military Decorations, Coats of Arms and Flags of all nations. Kinney Tobacco Company, New York. Successors to Kinney Bros.” $675 Read’Em Again Books #8706 4.

Saddle- stapled paper pamphlet with front and back cover illustrations in color. Sound binding; some wear at the spine and corners. The basic design of this cover was used for several years. This is the earlier variant showing both children facing the piano and their proud father sporting a Van Dyke beard and wearing a blue smoking jacket. The rear cover advertisement featuring eight boys wearing a variety of military, fire, and police uniforms is especially engaging. There are internal advertisements for toy pianos, glockenspiels or metallophones, xylophones, Parachute Guns, and the Latest Invention! . Gyrograph: The Artistic Top. $50 Read’Em Again Books #8707 Click on any inventory # or the first picture in a listing for more information, additional larger images, or to make a purchase. 5. [ADVERTISING] [AVIATION] [CIRCUS & ENTERTAINMENT] [PHILATELY] Illustrated advertising envelope promoting Billy F. Travise’s Souvenir Minstrels. Sent by Henry Millard. Marietta, Ohio: 1892.

  • July Slater Signals
    SLATER SIGNALS The Newsletter of the USS SLATER's Volunteers By Timothy C. Rizzuto, Executive Director Destroyer Escort Historical Museum USS Slater DE-766 PO Box 1926 Albany, NY 12201-1926 Phone (518) 431-1943, Fax 432-1123 Vol. 18 No. 7, July 2015 It’s hard to believe that the summer is half over and I’m already writing the July SIGNALS. We had some very special visitors this month. First and foremost were Dale and Linda Drake. This was special because Linda is the daughter of the late Master Chief Gunner’s Mate Sam Saylor and, it’s safe to say, without Sam Saylor, there would be no USS SLATER preservation. Linda recalled that for years her visits were constantly interrupted with Sam's words, "Well, I take care of some SLATER business." It was the ship that was Sam's focus and sustained him through the last 20 years of his life. Linda and Dale made the trip from Omaha specifically to see USS SLATER because this was Linda’s first chance to see the fruit of all her father’s effort. Board President Tony Esposito greeted them as they toured the ship from stem to stern. Linda’s husband Dale is a former Marine, and he left Linda on the Observation Deck so he could take the bilge tour. He wanted to see everything. I do believe if we could get them to relocate to Albany we’d have two more dedicated volunteers. Linda brought along Sam's burial flag which we will fly for the month of August and then retire it to the USS CONNOLLY display in Sam’s honor.

The time-frame has been selected for two reasons: (1) actresses active after 1870 have been the subject of several dissertations and scholarly studies, while relatively little research has been completed on women active on the American stage prior to 1870, and (2) prior to 1850 there was limited theatre activity in this country and very few professional actresses. A general description of mid-nineteenth-century theatre and its social context is provided, including a summary of major developments in theatre in New York and other cities from 1850 to 1870, discussions of the star system, the combination company, and the mid-century audience.

  • Introduction Methodology
    Introduction The City of Sacramento implemented a three-week virtual community workshop for the Sacramento Valley Station Master Plan to engage with community members and station users in the Sacramento Region. The virtual workshop was open to the public from Wednesday, January 15, 2020 to Friday, February 7, 2020. The project team received more than 280 responses from community members. In 2018, the City concluded work on an initial conceptual planning that resulted in two master plan concepts. Currently, the City is developing a preferred option and multi-phase implementation plan. In addition, the Bus/Mobility Center has moved forward to 30% design documents for the construction funds grant application. In 2020, the Sacramento Valley Station Specific Plan will be completed and provide a pathway for expanding regional transportation services and developing the Sacramento Valley Station site, with transportation in mind. The goals of the design concept are to establish a well-connected transit center, be a gateway to the city, and provide a mixed-use destination with infill development for the 17-acres of property around the historic depot. The plan area on the City-owned site will be designed with sustainable principles, under the framework of the International Living Futures Institute’s Living Community Challenge Vision Plan certification. Methodology This Virtual Community Workshop served as a forum for participants to learn about the project and Master Plan, as well as contribute their input on the design elements and concepts to be integrated into the new station area. The project team implemented a three-week virtual workshop to notify and engage with community members who frequent the Sacramento Valley Station.

  • Origins and Development of Legal Racial Exclusion In
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles American Ethnocracy: Origins and Development of Legal Racial Exclusion in Comparative Perspective, 1600s to 1900s A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Wesley Hiers 2013 © Copyright by Wesley Hiers 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION American Ethnocracy: Origins and Development of Legal Racial Exclusion in Comparative Perspective, 1600s to 1900s by Wesley Hiers Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Andreas Wimmer, Chair This dissertation directs sociology’s political-institutional turn to the puzzle of legal racial exclusion (LRE)—a social phenomenon wherein states classify their populations by race and assign unequal rights to dominants and subordinates on this basis. Spanning from colonial times to the civil rights era, this dissertation offers a long-run perspective on how political institutions—modes of imperial rule, party systems and coalitions, and legislative arrangements—have shaped the emergence, endurance, and demise of LRE. Chapter one uses a macro-comparative analysis to explain why LRE emerged in some former European settlement colonies but not others. The basic argument links the emergence of LRE in the independence era to colonial legacies of settler self-rule: where European settlers established autonomous, representative governments during the colonial period, LRE later developed. Focusing on the United States, the next three chapters then examine the political ii institutions and alliances that sustained LRE until the 1960s. Compared to other cases of LRE, the United States is the only one where LRE became an object of significant political contestation several decades before this exclusion was actually overcome.
