Download or read book C G Charles St Clair Scrapbook of Personal Ephemera and Newspaper Clippings written by C.G. (Charles) St. Clair and published by . This book was released on 1858 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scrapbook of C.G. (Charles) St. Clair contains personal ephemera and newspaper clippings pertaining to St. Clair's experience as a music teacher, organist, and performer. Includes handbills, programs, playbills, advertisements, a promotional card that includes St. Clair's portrait; a few manuscripts, some created by St. Clair and others business references created by St. Clair's previous employers. Also includes newspaper clippings, some advertising St.Clair's services as a vocal instructor and others published travel accounts and music reviews. The ephemera and clippings date from approximately 1858 to 1880 and are arranged more or less chronologically. The outer wrapper of the scrapbook is reinforced with a newspaper dating August 28, 1886. The ephemera and clippings emanate from various locations throughout the United States and Canada, but the scrapbook may have been assembled by hand in Los Angeles or San Bernardino, California around 1887. C.G. (Charles) St. Clair, along with his wife, Avice Ann St. Clair were a husband and wife musical team that traveled throughout the United States and Canada serving in roles such as vocal instructor, choir leader and organist. St. Clair may also have found employment as a lecturer, freelance travel writer, and music reviewer. He also claimed to have invented the Xylo-Calame Piano, a wood straw piano. Sources not represented in the scrapbook indicate the St. Clair family, including C.G. and Avices' son, Fred, may have been involved in criminal activity, Avice and Fred having served time in the mid to late 1880s for larceny and receiving stolen goods. C.G. himself was described as a thief and swindler in newspaper accounts from Kingman, Kansas and Quincy, California. A Kingman, Kansas newspaper published a story about the discovery of the body of Avice Ann St. Clair in a "hovel" in Cheyenne, Wyoming on March 10, 1888. C.G. St. Clair died March 6, 1888 in San Bernardino, California.

Book Encyclopedia of Ephemera

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Ephemera written by Michael Twyman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 1322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The joy of finding an old box in the attic filled with postcards, invitations, theater programs, laundry lists, and pay stubs is discovering the stories hidden within them. The paper trails of our lives -- or ephemera -- may hold sentimental value, reminding us of great grandparents. They chronicle social history. They can be valuable as collectibles or antiques. But the greatest pleasure is that these ordinary documents can reconstruct with uncanny immediacy the drama of day-to-day life. The Encyclopedia of Ephemera is the first work of its kind, providing an unparalleled sourcebook with over 400 entries that cover all aspects of everyday documents and artifacts, from bookmarks to birth certificates to lighthouse dues papers. Continuing a tradition that started in the Victorian era, when disposable paper items such as trade cards, die-cuts and greeting cards were accumulated to paste into scrap books, expert Maurice Rickards has compiled an enormous range of paper collectibles from the obscure to the commonplace. His artifacts come from around the world and include such throw-away items as cigarette packs and crate labels as well as the ubiquitous faxes, parking tickets, and phone cards of daily life. As this major new reference shows, simple slips of paper can speak volumes about status, taste, customs, and taboos, revealing the very roots of popular culture.
