Printed Broadside for “Providence and Southbridge, Accommodation Stage.” 15” x 22”. Wonderful images of a horse-drawn carriage and an early passenger steam engine. Ornate border. The broadside reads, in part: “ … Stage will leave the Manufacturers Hotel, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, at 11 o’clock, A.M. and arrive at Fishersville Depot in time to meet the Cars for Worcester and Norwich, passing the villages of Greenville, Chepachet, Thompson, Masonville, Fishersville, and from thence to New-Boston and Southbridge.

Mounted to another sheet. Some very slight soiling and wrinkling, not affecting overall appearance. Overall Extremely Fine.

One of the last Shaker songs to be ever written was composed by Sister Lillian Phelps at Canterbury in 1914. The lasted printed Shaker hymnal was published at Canterbury, New Hampshire in 1908 and was entitled, “A Shaker Hymnal.” Since then only a few Shaker songs have been written. One of these was penned by Sister Phelps as late as 1959. Founded by a woman, Mother Ann Lee(s) (1736-1784), the Shakers have always believed in the “equality of the sexes in all departments of life.” America’s last Shaker community, the Canterbury Shaker Village, in Canterbury, New Hampshire, was in its twilight at the time of Sister Phelps’ death. Phelps’ few possessions are sterling examples of Shaker art at its finest.
