Provenance
This collection forms part of the Jay T. Last Collection of Graphic Arts and Social History, which was
donated to the Huntington Library by Jay T. Last in 2005 as a gift in progress. The bulk of the agriculture prints and ephemera were transferred to the Library between 2010 and 2013.
Background
The Jay T. Last Collection is an unparalleled archive of printed paper artifacts that documents American lithographic, social,
and business history. The collection began in the early 1970s when
physicist and Silicon Valley pioneer Jay Last moved to Southern California and started collecting citrus box labels he found
at local flea markets and rummage sales. As his collection grew,
Last realized that these labels conveyed important information about commercial printing, graphic design, and social history,
and he expanded his collection to include other forms
of American visual culture. Today this collection contains more than 200,000 lithographic prints, posters, and ephemera of
mostly nineteenth- and early twentieth- century American
origin and represents works by more than five hundred lithographic companies.
Scope and Content
The Jay T. Last Collection of Agriculture Prints and Ephemera contains roughly 2,315 items from approximately 1818 to 1924,
with the
majority of material dating from 1850 to 1900. The collection consists mainly of advertising prints and ephemera related to
crop, hay, livestock, and dairy farming, including the tools,
equipment, supplies, and structures used for cultivating soil; raising, harvesting, and storing crops; irrigating land; growing
grasses for animal fodder; marking territory lines or separating fields and pastures;
and boarding, breeding, feeding, rearing, tending, and selling farm animals.
Agricultural machinery and implement companies dominate. Manufacturers and dealers of fertilizer, windmills, and fencing supplies
are also represented, as are veterinary medicine, items used to collect or make dairy products,
and items used on horses such as blankets, halters, harnesses, horseshoes, nails, saddles, and riding whips. Certificates
issued by or pertaining to agricultural
societies and organizations are also found here.
Materials are arranged in two series: small-size items (11 x 14 inches or less) and large-size items (bigger than 11 x 14
inches). Most small-size items are described broadly at the series level; selected small-size items
and all large-size items are fully inventoried, with all printers, artists, and publishers indexed by name. The collection
has 125
large-size items comprised mainly of lithographs
and engravings, including advertising prints, certificates, and promotional materials. Small-size items number
over 2,000 and are comprised mainly of trade cards, leaflets, handbills, stationery, calendars, price lists, and catalogs
from various businesses.
Materials are further divided into two subseries: Implements and Supplies, and Livestock. Implements and Supplies includes
fences, fertilizers, farm machinery and implements, and windmills. Livestock includes breeding,
dairying, food, and veterinary medicine for livestock, and a variety of products and services relating to horses and blacksmithing.
The collection's prints and ephemera are primarily promotional in nature and provide information about American farming and
agriculture-related industries, as well as the evolution of advertising strategies
employed by these businesses in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Materials in this collection also provide perspectives
on the role of horses in American daily life, and on membership and participation in various societies and organizations.
As graphic materials, the items offer evidence of printmaking techniques and trends, as well as information about the artists,
engravers,
lithographers, printers, and publishers involved in the creative process.
