Graded Schools in the United States of America
Imprint: Macmillan in New York, Swan Sonnenschein & Co in London, 1894
Edition: First American Edition
Scarce First Edition of this seminal paper on the history of graded schools in the US. Pressure on working-class children to quit school to assist the household's need for income or labor was irresistible, both in times of economic depression and prosperity. Therefore, it was decided that school attendance must be made not only free but also compulsory if the majority of children were to be educated for an extended period of their lives. The establishment of COMPULSORY SCHOOL ATTENDANCE and free, graded schools in the United States took many decades to accomplish. Compulsory school attendance was first instituted by Massachusetts in 1852. The last state to pass a compulsory school attendance law was Mississippi in 1918. 71 pages in excellent condition. withdrawn from the Norman Williams Public Library with an engraved exlibris and a presentation card from the Gilchrist Trustees who funded the venture..

An amazing item of boxing history. The inside covers of this book front and back contain an amazing assortment of signatures of many of the all-time boxing greats of the mid 20th century. Among the signatories are the following: ( 1 ) WILLIE PEP: 2-time world featherweight champion (1942-48,49-50); pro record 230-11-1 with 65 KOs. ( 2 ) SANDY SADDLER: former featherweight champion known for an uncanny finishing punch for a man his size, which helped him earn a 144-16-2 record with 103 knockouts; had memorable four-fight series with Willie Pep between 1949-51, ( 3 ) STEVE BELLOISE ( Former Middleweight Champion ) ( 4 ) TIPPY LARKIN: "The Garfield Gunner" Born: Antonio Pilleteri, November 11, 1917 Garfield, NJ . Pro Record: 135-16-1 (56 Kayos) 1 NC ( 5 ) JOEY GIARDELLO: Middleweight Born: Carmen Orlando Telleli, July 16, 1930 Brooklyn, NY Born: July 16, 1930 Total Bouts: 133 Won: 100 Lost: 25 Drew: 7 No Decision: 1 KOs: 32 ( 6 ) BILLY GRAHAM: Middleweight & Welterweight Born: September 9, 1922 Died: January 22, 1992 Total Bouts: 126 Won: 102 Lost: 15 Drew: 9 KOs: 26 ( 7 ) JOE MICELI Born: Joseph Anthony Miceli January 8, 1929 Brooklyn Height: 5-10; Weight Class: Welterweight Pro Record: 60-42-8 (28 kayos) ( 8 ) Tami Mauriello - Heavyweight BORN : September 18 1923; New York City, New York HGT : 5-11 WGT : 170 3/4 -196 1/2 lbs and in a 96 bout career the résumé would read 82 wins (60 KO's), 13 losses with one draw.

I have checked most of these signatures against numerous postings on boxing websites and all appear tto be genuine. The book itself is a fascinating account of the sport in its golden years before and after World War II when the "Friday Night Fights" were the biggest thing in sports. The 195 pages include a complete listing of each of author Pep's amazing 241 professional fights! Also numerous pictures of most of the greats in the era and many of the fighters who signed this book. For serious inquiries, we can send scans of the signatures and more detail, if needed..

In Near Fine condition , no dustjacket as issued. Limited Edition De Luxe 1917 Copyright on hand-made paper #72 of 350. Signed by Brangwyn and Phillpotts. Large quarto.1/4 vellum over gray paper covers. Gilt stamped on front cover and spine. Some very minor wear to the covers, else an amazingly beatuiful copy of this lavish production. Four tipped-in color plates, five full-page single-color illustrations (including half-title and title), and single-color decorative borders throughout. Frank Brangwyn was born in 1867 in Bruges, Belgium. His family moved back to London in 1875 where he attended school until 1879, when he left as much out of boredom as necessity. His father worked as an architect, muralist, and in other arts-related crafts. Frank helped around the studio and continued his own artistic education by copying drawings at what was to become the Victoria and Albert Museum. His abilities attracted the notice of more established artists and at the age of 15 he was working for William Morris getting rudimentary training and preparing designs for many aspects of Morris' Arts and Crafts output. In 1885, with nothing much more than youthful enthusiasm, he submitted a painting to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and was accepted - at the age of 17.. Illustr.: Frank Brangwyn
