Thomas J. Thorp and Martin Taylor's 1873 Blackboard Patent Model
|
This patent model is comprised of two hinged folding blackboards on pole with metal hinges and attachments on top to hold them in place. There is a handle on the bottom and has white knobs on the wooden side of each blackboard which all folds in and stacks together. Patent no. 135019 was issued 1/21/1873 to retired Brevet Brigadier General Thomas Jones Thorp. Martin Taylor of Buffalo, NY. is mentioned in the patent application as having worked with Thorp on the innovations, but he did not sign the form nor the drawing, and Thorp is also the only one listed on the original patent tag. The patent drawing depicts four adjustable, compact blackboards on a pole that intersects like an X. Thorp claimed that the compact blackboard was designed to be used to record lessons that could be retained for weeks or months while the wall affixed blackboard could be used for daily lessons. Thomas Jones Thorp was born May 26, 1837, in Granger, New York and died July 26, 1915, in Corvallis, Oregon. He was the son of Bethiah Jones Thorp and Montgomery Thorp and enrolled in the progressive co-ed Alfred Academy 1851-1854 according to an article from the Alfred New York Sun. His name is listed as matriculated in the Alfred University General Catalogue for 1853-1854, the name being changed in 1857 from academy to university. Thorp’s name is also mentioned in the 1861 Harvard University catalogue (which is an early form of yearbook)- perhaps he was taking classes there for a semester, but he was at Union College when the Civil War broke out and received his degree on the field from Union College. In September 1862, he married Mandana Coleman Major, who entertained and nursed the troops during the Civil War. During the Civil War he enlisted in the 85th New York Regiment and served with distinction. He was shot twice, once at Fair Oaks and again at Malvern Hill. As a colonel, he spent some time at Camp Oglethorpe, a Confederate prison for officers near Macon, Georgia but after some provocative speeches he was transferred to Columbia, South Carolina he escaped. After four years, he was honorably discharged. His military exploits leading to his final promotion as Brevet Brigadier General seem to have been well documented. After the military, Thomas Jones Thorp moved his family to a homestead in Selma/Wexford in Northern Michigan to try his hand at farming and to assist his father according to the 1870 census. He returned there for the 1880 census after living in Buffalo, NY. He is listed in numerous city directories. Thorp was a schoolteacher in 1872, promoted in 1873 to principal for Public School #36 Cottage Park in Buffalo, New York under the noted superintendent Dr Thomas Lothrop, and mentioned in professional education journals as well as local Buffalo newspapers of the period. During this period he developed the bulletin board. After working for 5 years for Buffalo city schools he was hired by A. S. Barnes Publishing Company of New York to sell schoolbooks in the Midwest and far west. He returned his family for Wexford in 1879 and tried his hand in politics as clerk, registrar, speaker, and a member of the Republican Party. After being defeated for a third term as a county clerk and registrar he tried sheep ranching in Flagstaff, Arizona in the late 1880’s and moved to Chicago in the early 1990s before settling in Oregon in 1893. His other patents include a fence tightener from 1891 (patent 464,207) and a metal spoked wheel in 1909 (patent 912758). He was very involved with the education community while his 2 surviving children, Bessie Maybelle (1877-1941) and Stephen Montgomery (1883-1932) were attending school and Pacific University, Oregon. Apparently he enjoyed being in school administration so much that when he moved to Oregon he served as a principal at the schools of Forest Grove, Woodlawn, Portland, and supposedly a few others. Little is known of Taylor who could have been the bookseller.

American Woolen Co. overcoat fabric samples, 1912
|
American Woolen Co., all wool "fancy back" overcoating fabric samples, 1912. Edges of sample pinked. Thick, heavy, double woven to be reversible; A. Grey reversing to grey/purple plaid; B. Gray reversing to gray and red plaid. Manufactured by the National and Providence Worsted Mills, Providence, RI. The Providence and National Worsted Mills, founded in Rhode Island in the 1870s, were originally two companies owned by Charles Fletcher, one a spinning and one a weaving mill for working with worsted yarns. Fletcher amalgamated the two companies into one in 1893, and then sold this company to the large Lawrence-based American Woolen Company in 1899. When the Lawrence mill workers struck against pay cuts in 1912 (the Bread and Roses strike), the American Woolen Company was one of the firms affected. The Rhode Island mills, however, did not strike.

Tarzan on the Radio
|
The sound recording <i>Tarzan on the Radio </i> is an abridged and edited version of the radio serial <i>Tarzan and the Diamond of Ashair </i> originally broadcast in 1934. Starring Jim Pierce and Joan Burroughs, the story has been condensed from 39 15-minute episodes to fit onto two long playing records. “Tarzan” is a fictional character created by American author Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950). Burrough’s introduced his vine-swinging jungle hero in the story <i>Tarzan of the Apes </i> first published in the magazine <i>The All-Story</i> in 1912. The story was later reprinted as a standalone novel in 1914. An Englishman from a noble family, Tarzan’s family dies while on an African Expedition. As an infant he us taken in and raised by Apes in Africa, learning to communicate with animals and developing exceptions strength and dexterity. Although he later discovers his human origins, Tarzan decides to remain in the jungle, developing a romantic relationship with marooned Englishwoman Jane Porter. One of the 20th centuries first action-adventure heroes, Tarzan became a global phenomenon, inspiring the prolific Burroughs, also known for works such as his <i>John Carter of Mars </i> series, to pen 23 sequels featuring his “ape-man.” Inspiring scores of other pulp adventure heroes, Tarzan has become of the world’s most recognized literary characters. He remains a vital part of our shared popular culture, featured in novelizations, comic books, television, and feature films. Reflecting many outdated cultural beliefs, the story of Tarzan expressed many elitist and racist notions accepted at the time of Burrough’s writing.
