Seller: Zephyr Used & Rare Books, Vancouver, WA, U.S.A.
Oblong 4to. [88 pp (unpaginated).], on thick black paper stock. With 23 original silver gelatin photographs sized 6 x 8 in., tipped-in, all with photographer's name of Harry J. Keys carefully blotted out (except for one) in lower fore-edge of image, 2 blue-prints, mimeographed text leaves throughout facing every image, title leaf tipped-in on front pastedown. Original black cloth post-binder, screw-posts at gutter margin (minor rubbing, edgewear, minor bumping to corners & wear), still VG exemplar, from the Washington, D.C. Knights of Columbus Evening School, now Columbus University, w/ bookplates on front & rear pastedowns. This interesting photo album documents the post-World War I efforts by the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic fraternal order, to establish a series of Schools for Demobilized Service Men for civilian job training, and counteract what they considered to be Bolshevistic principles being promulgated to returning veterans by labor unions and political parties across the country. The Knights of Columbus had established a Camp School at Camp Devens, MA, largely staffed by MIT, Harvard, Boston College, and Washington College professors and instructors. The automobile classes were especially popular, and the Washington, D.C. School began training hundreds of students on Driving, and Automotive Repair by the end of 1919. This album's photographs and text show the classrooms fitted out with Ford & Dodge Chassis, 4-cylinder engines, and accessories, which carefully detail engine parts & repair, cooling, oiling, adjusting carburetors, clutch assemblies, transmissions, magnetos, battery ignition, trouble shooting, rules of the road, and then driving and earning driver's licenses. The second part of the album is devoted to the auto repair section of the courses, with photos and text representing a complete machine shop, repair shop space, and engine repair bench. Such courses as these automotive training schools provided vital expertise for fueling the expansion of automobile manufacturers, auto repair shop, and service stations later during the 1920s. Following demobilization after World War I, the U.S. Congress which had refused to allocate funds to compensate and support veterans when passing the 1917 conscription laws, instead arranged with the Knights of Columbus, the Salvation Army, and many other non-government organizations who stepped in to establish education programs and job banks, placing more than 300,000 returning veterans with employers throughout the country. Their primary goal was to alleviate the impact of the post-War recession and the large expansion of labor strikes and actions across the country.

This captivating archive offers a number of items documenting the storied career of noted Western artist, Ed Quigley (1895-1984), including photographs, catalogues, broadsides, and printed pieces, as well as souvenirs from his participation with Los Rancheros Visitadores riding club in Santa Barbara, CA. The photographs open with an image of him completing a painting of a cowboy working with mustangs in a corral, with Quigley holding his palette, and glimpses of Portland, OR through the studio window in the background; another two show him and his smartly dressed friends during the 1930's while he was painting for the Works Progress Administration Federal Artist's program; and five additional photos by Santa Barbara photographer Karl Obert depict him riding with others at the Los Rancheros Visitadores in 1958. The exhibit catalogues include his June-July, 1949 exhibition at the Maryhill Museum of Fine Arts, which also included a number of his original woodcarvings; the 1962 Western Art Exhibits sponsored by Los Rancheros Visitadores which featured works by Quigley, Charley Russell, Will James, Edward Borein, Joe De Yong, Olaf Wieghorst, Frank Tenney Johnson, and others; and the 1964 gallery showing of Oil Paintings and Wood Carvings at the Oregon Society of Artists Gallery in Portland, OR including a photo of the artist carving sculptures. The several sales broadsides include one signed by Quigley for his bronzes, with the verbiage that he had intended to cast 20, but there were only 10, and these include "Unloaded," "Indian Scout," and "Bronc Rider."Quigley expanded his career through the 1930's and 1940's by gaining inspiration from Yakama Indians in and around Toppenish while visiting horse trader Frank Green, and would often return there. He writes in one of the undated Christmas cards that he had just "spent 3 interesting weeks with a couple of mustangers and the Indians on wild horse round-ups on the Yakima Reservation. Got a lot of good material and have 2 - 30" x 40" paintings finished." The stationery included here all reproduce paintings by Quigley of mustangs on the Palouse, as well as pen & ink drawing of the cabin built by the artist on Cedar Creek near Mt. Hood and Sandy, Oregon. The prolific and popular Western artist focused on cowboys and Native Americans working in rugged landscapes, often with pastoral themes as a native of the Pacific Northwest, who also was an active member of many riding clubs including Los Rancheros Visitadores. Los Rancheros Visitadores was founded as an invitaiton-only riding club, which included such members as founder Ed Borein, along with Will James, Joe De Yong, Walt Disney, Gary Cooper, Montie Montana, Clark Gable, Philip Wrigley, Charlie Russell, Chuck Yeager, Max Baer, and Ronald Reagan. The rides usually center on the Los Prietos Ranch in the Santa Ynez Valley, often include a visit to Santa Ynez Mission, and for over four decades their rides, participants and activities were documented by famed Santa Barbara photographer, Karl Obert (1897-1976). No copies of the exhibition catalogues or broadsides are located in Worldcat; See: Phoebe Oelheim, Artist Edward Quigley's Romantic Vision of the West, Oregon Cultural Heritage Commission (2002); Graham Sharkey, Boots & Spurs, The Capital Journal, July 20, 1950, p. 10.
