The history of Hannibal: depicting an unforgettable picture of the fashion era

The Kansas, 37-year-old Corrine Armer came to Hannibal in 1913 and settled as a state manager and scientific assembler for Corset USA. She established her office (and residence) at 607 Broadway, just across the street from Grand Federal Street in town. put up.

On the first floor of the building is a painter, painter and wallpaper called Leonard and Son. Upstairs, in her office, Mrs. Almer meets women in secret, assuring them that they can customize fits from quality underwear.

The company

The American Corset Company, the American queen corset manufacturer, touted its products:

“You want the corset you wear to be correct in every respect. The designer of the “Queen of the United States” is considered to be the most important corset artist in the country, and the details of the corset are correct. It is the most Stylish and at the same time the most comfortable bodice.”

The company is headquartered in 411 S. Sangamon St., Chicago, Illinois.

Instead of selling its products through local businesses, the company seeks to sell women’s corsets to other women. In order to recruit women for this task, in 1912, advertisements were placed in targeted newspapers and exposed to men who could in turn recruit women.

Such an advertisement was published on the Topeka State Journal on June 1, 1912:

“Overnight, salesman

“Travelers hire women to sell Queen’s corsets. The best corsets, the best terms. Free wages and fee allowances. Additional commissions and bonuses. Permanent positions. Corset, USA, Chicago, 16th.”

Before coming to Hannibal, Mrs. Alme visited Waterloo, Iowa. On August 15, 1913, Mrs. Almer presented the Queen’s Corset at the Lewis Millinery store at 517 Lafayette Street.

Interesting development

Just as Mrs. Almer (Elmer’s widow) is starting an independent corset business, her plans are also undermined.

The story says that Mary Phelps Jacobs wanted a comfortable replacement dress when she wore one of her prom dresses. She tied two handkerchiefs together, added some ribbons, and made a bra. In 1913, she obtained a patent for invention, and her actions quickly led to the decline of the more restrictive corset.

The presence of Mrs. Amer in Hannibal made her only recorded in the 1914 Urban Catalogue published in 1914.

Kansas’ daughter

Corrine Armer was born in Cora Irene Hey, circa 1876, and grew up on a farm in Fairfax, Osage County, Kansas. Her parents are Jacob and Marthia Hey, and her father is a veteran of the EFF civil war.

Her brothers and sisters include a sister and brother, Mary D. and William. She was born in 1876. Two years later, her brother Clarence was born in 1878 and was born in 1878. Anne M. was born in 1884.

Sadly, Marthia Hey died between 1884 and 1885, leaving her children without a mother. Cora is only 8 years old.

In May 1885, Jacob Hey married Rosamond L. Frazier of Carbondale, Kan., and gave birth to a son, Roscoe E. Hey, in April 1893.

Young bride

When the tender (and estimated) was 15 years old, Cora Hey married Thomas Michael in August 1891. He is seven years old. Son Lionial was born in 1893 and daughter Zelda was born in 1894.

They lived in Colorado Springs, Colorado, until early 1901, when John T. Michael proposed divorce his young wife and sought custody of both of their children.

Cora moved to Pueblo, Colorado, where she worked as a servant of a boarding house for a while. On September 19, 1903, she married the interior designer Elmer Armer of Pueblo. She returned to Kansas to see her father and stepmother often noticed by Overbrook Herald, who served in Kansas’ hometown. For a while, Almers lived in Wichita, Kansas, and moved to Montana, where they lived in 1910. Elmer Almer was listed in the census as the interior of the Montreal Helena furniture store.

When she came to Hannibal in 1913, she listed herself as a widow.

Finally solved

When her father died in 1924, she married Barnett Mason Hill, who lives in Denver, Colorado. Records show that he once operated a furniture store, and another time he operated an apartment building.

They have a daughter, Frances Corrine Hill, born around 1922.

This marriage has continued. Corrine Hey Hill died in Denver on January 10, 1951. She was buried next to her husband who died at the Fairmount Cemetery in Denver in 1948.

Deer Park senior graduates show some skins in the “horror show”

In the third “rock horror show” performed at the Purple Box Theatre in Friendswood from October 19th to 28th, actor Alec White will show off his slimmer body with boxers and bow ties.

“We became very embarrassed,” said Dear Park High School graduates in 2016. He lost 30 pounds last year. “Work 5 days a week, exercise 3 miles a week, and exercise 2 to 3 days a week.”

As a result, his 6-foot frame now carries about 230 pounds, compared to his previous weight of 260 pounds.

“At the end of the show, I wore corsets, women’s underwear, stockings and high heels,” White said, 21 years old.

White plays Brad, a clean, healthy guy whose car blew in the storm, forcing him to take refuge in the refuge of the crazy scientist Dr. Frank Enfurt.

“Brad is the ‘straight man’ of this comedy; so the audience responded to his reaction to the absurdity around him,” said White, a junior at the University of Houston’s media production.

“He is a good man. He is like the father of a comedy in the 1950s. He said, “Dear, I am going home!” Then he sat down to eat a frozen TV dinner and went back to work at 8 am the next morning.

The mad scientist played by Chase Harris has become a cultural icon with the midnight screening of the 1975 film “The Rocky Horror Photo Exhibition”.

White has never seen this movie until he plays in the purple box drama.

“Now I have read the script and watched the movie, and of course I understand its fascination with it and why it is so popular,” he said.

The imitation of science fiction and B-horror movies invites viewers to wear their favorite characters, dance “The Time Warp” on the show and yell “Hot Patootie!”.

“For the 1970s, it really did improve, but today it doesn’t look like a ridiculous concept,” White said. “These songs are very appealing.”

Kathy Holbrooke, the founding art director and owner of the Purple Box, said, “Everyone always asks us to do this” program.

The cast also includes: Teddy Waddell, Elle Anders, Victoria Reyes, Brandee Sibley, Matthew Hailey and Matt Rosenthal.

Other actors include: Daniel Partida, T’Mar Bunch, Mikayla Lovejoy, Rebeccah Bauerlein, Sydney Moore, Adriana Rodriquez, Lily Newsom, Mylana Valdina, Allessandro Baldan and Cassie Seba.

Deer Park High White is in the opposite of his friend Eli Martinez, in the scene of Tom Stoppard’s ridiculous comedy “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead”, in the 2016 Inter-University League 6A Singles Championship in Austin.

In all levels of the game leading to the state finals, the judges agreed that White was the best actor or All-Star actor; in the state, White was nominated for the All-Star lineup.

White also served as the co-team leader of the impromptu comedy team, who co-founded his senior year at Deer Park.

He and Deer Park’s old friends Andrew Green, Luke Holt, Marc Moland and Lucio Vasquez also formed “a small production company”, Sad Tree Films, released a short video on YouTube.

White is the production manager for Walker Cable Productions in Woodlands.

In 1927, he became the murder of the media circus and a famous movie.

A housewife and salesman had an affair, then hatched the conspiracy to kill her husband and demanded insurance money when he died. If this sounds like a black movie plot, it is because it is; this is the plot of James Kane’s 1943 crime novel “Double Compensation” and the 1944 film adaptation. But this is also what happens in the real crimes that Double Indemnity is based on.

On March 20, 1927, Ruth Snyder claimed that two “giant Italians” broke into her house in Queens and stunned her. She said they tied her up and left her in the hallway. Then, when her 9-year-old daughter was still asleep, they killed her husband and stole her jewelry.

The police immediately suspected that Snyder did not seem to have been eliminated. They also found her “stolen” jewelry stuffed under her mattress. Within a few hours, she gave up the name of the married corset salesman who slept with Henry Judd Gray and nailed the murder to him.

When the police arrived in Gray, he confessed but accused Snyder of tempting him and planning to murder her husband, the art editor of the motorboat magazine. The police also found that just before her husband was murdered, Snyder forged a double compensation insurance policy in his name because he accidentally died nearly $100,000.

In addition to failed insurance fraud, one of the most significant aspects of crime is how Snyder and Gray can do nothing. They hit him with heavy objects in the window, killed Snyder’s husband, stuffed the chloroform-soaked cotton into his nose and strangled him with a frame. They tried to cover it up as a bad “break into”, and when the story fell, the former lovebirds immediately turned to each other.

At the time, journalist Damon Runyon called it “dumbbell murder” because it was too stupid. However, in the past year, it has received “the attention of the press, which is not commensurate with the importance of murder to society as a whole,” said Maurine Beasley, a professor of journalism at the University of Maryland. “These are not politicians, these people are not important, these are not celebrities – these are ordinary people.”

The driving force behind this report is the Daily Graphic, the daily news and the New York tabloid news battle between William Randolph Hearst’s Daily Mirror. In order to transcend each other, they have locked in stories that have little to do with the public and draw readers with sensational details. The tabloid “has not hesitated to fabricate details because it does not strictly follow the facts,” Beasley said. Prior to Snyder and Gray, the New York tabloid triggered a similar media sensation in the murder of a pastor and chorus in New Jersey in 1922.

In the report, the tabloid turned Snyder and Gray into sensational figures in Hollywood movies. This is especially true for Snyder, who became the beauty of the story. The tabloid described her as a “synthetic blonde murderer”, a “vampire’s wife” – the most unusual – “ruthless Ruth, Queen’s Village Viking Ice Girl”, Penelope Pelizzon and Nancy West in 2005 10 Written in a narrative article of the month.

Gray also often speaks to tabloids and portrays himself as a victim. Before Snyder and Gray’s trial began, he described his relationship with Snyder’s “Daily News”: “She will put her face one inch away from me, watching deeply. My eyes, until I am completely her. When she hypnotizes my thoughts with her eyes, she will pat my cheek with my palm to control my body.”

Such reports have aroused public interest in the case. “There are 1,500 people packed in court every day, and as many as 2,000 people besieged the streets,” Jessie Ramey wrote in an article in the Spring 2004 Social History Journal. The hawker sells fake tickets for $50, and souvenir vendors sell sticks with murder weapons – belt weight – ten cents.

How did the whole legend end? In James Cain’s novella, the salesman (selling insurance instead of a corset) fled to a ship in Latin America, only to find that his female accomplice was also on board. Because the criminal records in the newspapers have become “sensational”, they are afraid of being arrested, and they will all commit suicide by jumping off the building at night. In the movie version of double compensation, it was not taken out of the country. The celluloid salesman killed his girlfriend and waited for the police to take him away.

But somehow, the real ending of the story is more morbid.

How to wear an OG blockbuster like Sophia Roland like 2018

Sophia Loren was there before we brought Tom Kardashian West to Tom Ford for Gucci thongs and Versace chain mail dresses.

The Italian actress concentrated on the sultry fashion in the 1950s and 1960s, her chest-enhanced bodice, tight-fitting dress, and her seaside shorts. She even looks tempting in a simple pair of jeans and a striped T-shirt.

Roland has an enviable confidence and a gorgeous figure. She never deprives her of her hobbies, nor is she a person who discusses her fitness habits if she wanders around Rome or starred in Hollywood’s main movie.

Roland is proud of her body and is still 84 years old today. We can all learn one or two things from Ms. Dolce Vita. Her clothes are just to show her sexy style without apology and her preference for beautiful fashion.

Today, to celebrate her birthday, there are seven ways to do some blockbusters like Loren, not including championships, PVC or Kardashian-approved underwear.

Jenna Coleman studies maternity and brings Queen Victoria to life

I am now on the corset at the airport,” Jenna Coleman said with a smile. She called from Victoria’s phone and explained the intermittent buzz of our conversation.

But we are not discussing Victoria now (we will certainly do this – later). We are discussing Coleman’s latest TV series “Cry”, which literally speaks far beyond her depiction of the cursed monarch. Coleman is located in a coastal town in Australia, playing Joe, a woman’s mental state and relationship unraveling when her baby disappears.

“This relationship with the mother and the relationship with the child is very important,” she talked about the roles and research. “Obviously I am not a mother, so it is an interesting thing to be closely related. Fortunately, I have many friends who have just given birth, so they are very helpful. Some of them also sent me. Some real, inner details tell the daily reality of being a mother.”

“Some things you didn’t really think of so much,” she continued. “Even the logistics of leaving the house and the questions about your identity. This is an eye-opening process.”

Complex emotional exploration is not the only challenge Coleman finds in his role. Her first psychological thriller, the plot is intricate, the plot twists and turns, keeping the truth beyond the mastery of the audience. “This is about things you won’t give up,” she said. “You often put your card on your chest.”

Although the scene is painful, the atmosphere during the shooting is far from this. “It became very enjoyable, dizzy and happier because it was so emotionally a roller coaster. We just wanted to get rid of it, so it actually turned into an extreme opposite between the two.”

Coleman’s career trajectory brought her into some wonderful TV series – from Waterloo Road to Mystery Doctor, perhaps most notably, as the Queen Victoria described above in her growing drama – when she boarded The throne was married to Prince Albert. Which part of the job does she think is the most valuable?

“When you are given life, it is such a gift,” she thought. “Things like Victoria can grow up with this character. To be a few series, she is old now, we have seven children!”

However, there are countless opportunities to appear on yourself every day, and often have the opportunity to turn her hand to something new that appeals to actresses. “We are doing the stadium next week, so I am learning polka now, one of them is a large wig from Georgia,” Coleman said with a smile. “I think this is change. There is not much time to be bored. This is an amazing thing.”
