![]() Photo (XL): (Lillah McCarthy) Lady F.W. Keeble $67.00 This is a museum-quality, reproduction print on premium, acid-free, semi gloss paper with archival/UV resistant inks.Date: n/aTopics: HISTORY OF THE OLD AMERICANA PHOTOSThis image comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection which represents one of America's earliest news picture agencies. The collection richly documents sports events, theater, celebrities, crime, strikes, disasters, political activities including the woman suffrage campaign, conventions and public celebrations. The photographs Bain produced and gathered for distribution through his news service were worldwide in their coverage, but there was a special emphasis on life in New York City. The bulk of the collection dates from the 1900s to the mid-1920s, but scattered images can be found as early as the 1860s and as late as the 1930s. (Library of Congress) ![]() Max Keeble's Big Move [VHS] $9.99 Well, it's been almost forever since I have seen this movie. It was one of my favorite when I was younger. It's a very funny movie. Josh Peck is in it! Lol, it's just funny seeing him younger. I suggest this for elementary students. ![]() Instruments of the Orchestra $39.99 As a music educator, I've found the recorded excerpts to be wonderfully and logically organized and presented. I've always been an instrumental music teacher only, but find myself teaching general music classes this year, and absolutely love what I've used so far. The last disc alone shows the fascinating evolution of the modern orchestra. Every other track is narrative text, the script of which is printed in the booklet, and I present that info myself, modifying as needed and answering questions during that time. I've only skimmed the other information from the booklet on my own, and look forward to reading and learning more! I'll be buying another copy of Instruments of the Orchestra for my school to own in the near future. ![]() The Restoration: England in the 1660s (History of Early Modern England) $109.95 This cultural history challenges the standard depiction of the 1660s as the beginning of a new age of stability, demonstrating that the decade following the Restoration was just as complex and exciting as the revolutionary years that preceded it. |
