In den Warenkorb8vo: 4 pp. Bifolium. 66 lines. Text clear and complete, on aged, spotted and worn paper. Letterhead with printed mottos in decorative borders: 'Total Abstinence is the only certain Preventive of, or Remedy for Intemperance.' and 'INDIVIDUAL ABSTINENCE. | STATE PROHIBITION.' In conclusion Gell apologises for 'what you no doubt wi…ll stigmatize as an absurd letter', and to the modern reader this item is certainly unintentionally-amusing. Since his correspondent 'went up', 'one of my Tasmanian friends along with Mrs. Mercer's (of the Bethel) daughter returned from Tasmania via Melbourne & we have enjoyed several outings; as you may suppose'. He has also taken 'Miss Lenton & Miss Mercer to Gasson's where we had tea & enjoyed ourselves muchly'. 'I expect you will give me another bantering about it, but I don't mind, as it is only a Platonic attachment. I fancy I can see your incredulous smile; but I can assure you it is nothing more; for apart from the physiological aspect & the disparity in years there is an insuperable objection in the matter of means & position which will effectually prevent any closer intimacy.' Gell finds it 'very hard at times to carry out the Platonic idea', having to be on his guard 'lest it degenerates into the more gross & sensual one'. As 'Walter' will no doubt 'be inclined to say "What is the old fool driving at"?' Gell explains that he is 'a believer in animal magnetism, hence the physiological objection before mentioned; for Miss L. & I have similar complexion & temperaments, & I am inclined to think any closer intimacy would be productive of unhappiness & unpleasantness on account of the theory that, like temperaments repel & unlike attract. [.] how else can we account for the fact of apparently healthy parents having children who are doomed to a premature grave; except on the grounds of temperamental inadaptation.' Founded in America in 1850, IOGT International is still active.

Known as "the Prohibition Portia," she was responsible for enforcing the Volstead Act during the Prohibition era. During the 1928 presidential election, Willebrandt organized several high-profile raids of speakeasies, all to benefit the election prospects of Hoover. The press noted that "no other woman has ever had so much influence on a presidential campaign." Willebrandt expected to be named Attorney General for her loyalty to President Hoover, but she was passed over and soon resigned.

In den WarenkorbVintage photograph of the first legal whiskey produced in Ohio during prohibition at the Carthage Distilling Company in Cincinnati, with contemporary annotations of location, dates, and personnel, and a "Rombach and Groene Commercial Photographers Cincinnati Ohio" stamp on the verso. A fascinating prohibition artifact depicting…fifteen men and one woman standing in a warehouse before a stack of three whiskey barrels, the topmost barrel prominently marked "1," less than two months before the passage of the 21st Amendment (December 5, 1933), repealing prohibition. On the verso, in a contemporary hand, is written: "First Barrel Whiskey produced in the State of Ohio since the 18th amendment became effective / manufactured and produced at the Carthage Distilling Corpn. plant Cincinnati, Ohio / mashed under date Oct. 20th 1933 / drawn and entered under date Oct. 23rd 1933." Cincinnati, Ohio, second only to Louisville, Kentucky, in the production of bourbon prior to the end of prohibition, was best known during prohibition as the headquarters for the "King of Bootleggers," George Remus. Cincinnati was located within a 300 mile radius of 80 percent of all of America's bonded whiskeys, making it an ideal location for a massive bootlegging enterprise, as well as for the headquarters to the Schenley Distillery, one of only six distilleries nationwide with a license to sell medicinal spirits during prohibition. An October 26, 1933 article from the Cincinnati Enquirer, entitled "Big Blending Plant Planned For Reading; First Legal Whisky In Ohio Is Produced," confirms the annotations on the photograph, "Simultaneously with the actual production of medicinal whisky at its plant in Carthage-said to be the first legal whisky turned out in Ohio since prohibition-it became known yesterday that the National Distillers Products Corporation, New York, largest distiller in the country, will locate one of its major blending and bottling plants in the immediate vicinity of Cincinnati." The article continues, "The Carthage Distillery, on Anthony Wayne Avenue, Carthage, is the only distillery now operating in the state of Ohio." In 1933 the Carthage Distilling Company was acquired by the National Distillers Products Corporation and in 1987 was bought by Jim Beam. Established in 1883, Cincinnati photographers Rombach and Groene specialized in commercial and landscape photography. In 2001 the Cincinnati Museum Center acquired the Rombach and Groene Collection, a collection of over 6,500 glass and film negatives and a hundred prints dating from 1870 to 1970. The company closed in 1973. 10 x 8 inches. Very Good, with some modest creasing, four small bruises and a small repair to the surface of the image to the center right.
