One pamphlet, copyright 1877, entitled Some Reasons Why Drawing Should be Taught in Our Common Schools, by Langdon S. Thompson, published by the author, La Fayette, Indiana. This pamphlet is 24 numbered pages in length and is not illustrated. It is subtitled: "A paper: Read at the Meeting of the Ohio Teachers' Association, at Put-in-Bay, July 4, 1877; and also at the Annual Meeting of the National Education Association, at Louisville, KY, Aug. 16, 1877." The text of the essay is prefaced by 9 pages of excerpts of testimonials in its favor. Thompson's three reasons for teaching art were 'disciplinarian', 'utilitarian', and 'aesthetic'. An ink stamp of the Ohio State University Education Library is stamped on the front cover.
