ANGELICA JACKET CO. ST. LOUIS COOK'S LINEN ADV FOB Lot #172 (Sale Order 172 of 399) Die struck, double-sided, blue and white enamel details. Legend 'We can live without music, we can live without books, but civilized man cannot live without cooks.'Background from fundinguniverse.com: 'Angelica Corporation is the leading supplier of textile rental and laundry services in the United States and holds distinction in two other markets, ranking as the leading manufacturer and marketer of uniform apparel and the leading U.S. operator of specialty retail stores.From its entrepreneurial beginnings in the late 19th century, Angelica established itself as a trendsetter, a characteristic that would describe the company more than a century later when it ranked as a dominant uniform apparel manufacturer and marketer. The company evolved from a fledgling upstart into a diversified, multinational concern by developing styles that became standard attire for service industry employees. Success in one market spawned entry into another, eventually creating a multifaceted company with a chain of retail stores, a textile rental and laundry service business, and uniform apparel lines in a host of markets. However, it all began with one garment--the company's first original creation--a cook's uniform sewn by the wife of railroad chef Cherubino Angelica in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1878. From this first uniform, scores of original, trendsetting designs followed, making the Angelica label a pervasive fixture in the American workplace.The cook's uniform created by Angelica's wife was distinctly different from his usual chef's attire and unlike the garments worn by other cooks in St. Louis and, presumably, anywhere else. The white hat was tall, resembling a crown with a pillow seated on top. The white coat was double-breasted, cloth buttons sewn to the sides, with two reversible layers of cloth in front to protect the wearer from direct heat and spattering grease. The cuffs, split on the sides, functioned as potholders when turned down. Although the white chef's uniform tailored by Cherubino Angelica's wife would become a ubiquitous, traditional garment worn by chefs a century later, in 1878 it was distinctly new and quickly drew comments from other railroad chefs, who were intrigued by its design and functionality. Cherubino Angelica attracted enough attention with his novel uniform to leave his job with the railroad and start his own company, an entrepreneurial venture that marked the beginning of Angelica Corporation's existence.'. Measures 2 inches x 1.25 inches. Die struck, double-sided with enamel details. Some scratches to enamel, and general wear, as shown.

A chill is a metal mold or portion of a mold in which molten metal is cooled rapidly and the surface of the metal is hardened. By using an iron "chill" in a portion of the sand mold, Oliver produced a hard surface on the cast iron plowshare, the cutting edge of the plow blade. The resulting plowshare retained its sharp cutting edge much better than traditional plows, and the cast iron was less brittle than usual because the interior portion of the iron cooled slowly.'.

Avery and Sons. The business grew and expanded until it became a leader in the west, with a large workforce and diversified lines of cast iron and steel plows. In addition, the firm published a highly regarded semimonthly newspaper, Home and Farm. The Avery Plow Works became the largest in the world, and Avery plows were sold in nearly every state in the country.In 1951, the Avery company merged with Minneapolis-Moline. At that time, the two businesses complemented each other: While Avery was a leader in plow manufacture, Moline produced hay balers, cotton harvesters and mowers for forage harvesters. At one time, B.F. Avery had a workforce of 1,200 at the sprawling Louisville plant.Production at the Louisville plant halted in 1955, and the property was sold. Though the company is no longer in existence, farm collectors will see Avery plows on auction blocks, in overgrown barnyards, and in the collections of many enthusiasts.

At this time, three workers at the Michigan Stove Company of Detroit decided to start their own business. William Robinson, president, Robert Wadell, vice-president, and J. Edwin Ellis, secretary and treasurer, founded the Independent Stove Company on May 18, 1906. They remained in Detroit on Brush Street until 1908, manufacturing cast iron cooking ranges and heaters.Three years after their founding, the management of the Independent Stove Company decided to move to Owosso. The city offered them approximately three acres of land along the Michigan Central Railroad tracks in return for spending $250,000 in payroll over a five year period.The line of stoves was gradually expanded to include steel ranges, furnaces, oak heaters, and an underfeed heater which generated less smoke than the earlier models in which fuel was added from the top. At first the steel ranges were primarily made from iron castings with steel parts used as decoration. Gradually, as advances were made in design, steel was used in some of the functional parts which were not exposed to the heat generated in the firebox. Later porcelain enamel was used as an exterior coating. At first the enamel was applied by other manufacturers, but in 1930 a porcelain enamel department with all the necessary equipment was installed in Owosso.'. Measures 2 inches.

ANGELUS MARSHMALLOWS ADVERTISING POCKET MIRROR Lot #313 (Sale Order 313 of 399) Color illustration of a trumpet carrying cherub, also holding a box of Angelus Marshmallows, 'A Message of Purity.' Mirrored reverse.Background from immigrantentrepreneurship.org/entry.php?rec=158: 'Angelus Marshmallows were introduced in 1907 and were the company's second-most popular product. The history of marshmallows actually begins in ancient Egypt, where mallow root and nuts were mixed together as a treat for royalty. In the nineteenth century, French candy makers whipped and sweetened that mallow root into a foamy confection, inventing what consumers today recognize as a marshmallow. The mallow root itself was replaced by gelatin and starch in the early twentieth century-creating a more stable and longer-lasting treat and enabling mass production of marshmallows. Rueckheim's company introduced the Angelus Marshmallow to capitalize on consumer demand for what, at the time, was a novel product. Angelus Marshmallows were promoted with the tag line: "Fluffy and Light as a Feather." An Angelus Chocolate product was introduced in 1909. Similar to Cracker Jack's prizes, Angelus Marshmallows had cookbooks and a mystery book with puzzles and recipes. The Hunky-Dory bar, another product, combined popcorn, chocolate, cream, and pecans. New Wrinkle included popcorn, coconut, sugar, molasses, and peanuts.'. Measures 2.75 inches x 1.75 inches. Mirror shows a crack and other significant wear, as shown.
