Very good.
Description
Oroville, Ca, 1900. Very good.. Three letters, [13]pp. total on seven lined sheets. Previously folded. Minor wear and toning. An engaging group of three letters from a mining engineer named Jack in Oroville, California, to his partner and perhaps brother Eric that discuss the development of their investments in an area that saw a rapid growth in dredge mining around the turn of the 20th century. Our correspondent was working out a new mechanical process for gold mining on a promising site. However, his partner and addressee had given power of attorney to an investor named Wyckoff who is described as "a snoty little devil" who "knows no more about a mine or my affairs than a jack rabbit," but was starving the operation of cash while delivering a steady stream of insults. At one point Wyckoff, "Left me without cash for ten days when we had nothing but potatoes to feed in the camp." The dastardly money man is also suspected of trying to steal the proprietary process, which had already yielded fruit in Mexico. If that weren't bad enough, the author was in poor health -- passing blood, suffering from continuous headaches, and feeling faint. And yet, as with any mining venture, a fortune was just around the corner: "I will make you money in the mine and prove the process, so we can get bigger mines. Everybody is gold-crazy over here." Good content concerning a region of California that saw significant commercial mining development during the late-19th and early 20th centuries.

Description
1890. [Women Employment] Original vintage photograph of a large group of women seamstresses and tailors at their sewing machines in a factory setting. circa 1890. Sepia. Approximately 5" x 8" with back photographer mat. Rows and rows of women sitting in front of sewing machines gaze into the camera. While single women faced barriers to employment, wives and mothers confronted prejudice that put their jobs at risk after marriage and childbirth. As women took advantage of expanded access to jobs with the advent of factory lines, a new push was made for job security and upward mobility. The women's employment movement first picked up traction in the industrial revolution, as women fought to secure fair hours and wages for female factory workers; In the late 1870s and 80s, women's organizations lobbied for safe conditions and job protection for married women and mothers; and through the 20th century expansion of skilled female labor including civil service, publishing, and medicine. Some of the most radical labor organizing in the West happened thanks to women in the textiles industry, as women fought to secure prosperity and safety under new work conditions. A beautiful photograph of the spirited women, young and old, at the front lines of the changing workplace. Ref:Baxandall, "America's Working Women" p. 94-96, 158.

Self-published history of the much beloved, and now defunct, Manti Mormon Miracle Pageant, colloquially known as the 'Manti Pageant'. The Pageant was a live action telling of the Book of Mormon and the founding of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the grounds of the Manti Temple. At its height, 15,000 people a night (over two weeks - usually in June) would watch the lavish production. I attended once and it was really bonkers.
