Description:
1940. A 12 1/2" x 19" watercolor that at first appearance gives the impression of an elegant rooming house for young women. Well appointed with refined furnishing of the day, various wall papers and decorative area rugs. But wait, do salacious women lounge on the carpet in slinky streamline revealing clothing or stand around on the carpet poised wearing feather boas and with long handled cigarettes holders; maybe not. Also note the gentleman cozily seated on the sofa hands have disappeared into the flowing robe of his companion. Finally the woman either descending or about to ascend the stairs attired in a revealing outfit with slit to the thigh is accompanied by a tuxedoed dude observing her approvingly. Good color composition and perspective and a charming style that allows the viewer to determine the scene.

The "National Corn Remover" worked on corns, warts, and calluses, and was as "simple as court plaster" to use. The corn remover was essentially a treated plaster bandage that one applied to the corn after soaking it in warm water. Included is the remover plaster bandage itself, instructions, and storing envelope. Depicted both on the envelope and the plaster bandage is a black and white image of a crow picking at a field. The provided instructions are written in four different languages; English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese. The product was produced by the Criswell Chemical Company, which was founded by Francis McClure Criswell (1858-1939), who also owned his own pharmacy in Washington, D.C. Based on newspaper records, the company was established in 1897, and appears to have folded in the late 1910s.…

New Bedford, Massachusetts: New Bedford Textile School, 1929. Good to very good.. A collection of hundreds of textile samples, weave pattern charts, and highly technical handwritten notes on the textile manufacturing process, all contained within two books belonging to Walter Hampson (dates unknown), a student at the New Bedford Textile School in Massachusetts. Together, the two books provide a remarkably comprehensive look into the industry at the time, textile education c.1929, and into Hampson's exceptional grasp on physics and manufacturing. He appears to have been not only proficient in technical drawing, but also in calligraphic drawing; his original artwork decorates the first leaf of the Lecture Note Book with an elaborate calligraphic motto design ("Toil is the Price of Excellence"). A nice meeting of "art" and "industry". The two books are as follows: "Pattern Book". [New Bedford: New Bedford Textile School, c.1929]. Single vol.

The store itself was located near the Boston neighborhoods of Hyde Park and Fairmount. The grocery was originally leased by a W. T. Allen, and, according to the broadside, is now leased by W. A. Bonney who "has put in a good assortment of FIRST-RATE FAMILY GROCERIES, and he hopes by keeping good goods and selling at low prices, to obtain a good share of your trade." According to the broadside the store sold a wide variety of items such as sugar, flour, spices, tea, coffee, tapioca, arrow-root, oranges, lemons, apples, currants, and kerosene oil.

A newspaper article on November 21, 1874 in the Boston Post states that a fire broke out and the building,…
