About This Item
Chicago, 1922. Pamphlet. Good. Pamphlet. 7" X 3 3/4". Paper is tissue-thin with toning and chipping along top. Fold-crease at center. Leaflet is free of marks and notation.
The Chicago Teachers Federation (CTF) was founded in 1897 as a professional association to represent teachers in the Chicago Public Schools. By the early 1900s, the CTF began to shift its focus towards labor organizing and advocating for better working conditions and pay for teachers. In 1902, the CTF went on strike for the first time, demanding higher wages and better working conditions. The strike was successful and helped to establish the CTF as a powerful labor organization. Throughout the 1910s and 1920s, the CTF continued to advocate for teachers' rights and better education policies.

About Underground Books, ABAA
Underground Books is an online rare and antiquarian bookshop as well as a brick and mortar general bookstore of the same name in downtown Carrollton, Georgia. Sister store Hills & Hamlets Bookshop is located in the nearby planned eco-community of Serenbe.
Co-owners Josh Niesse and Megan Bell met in 2011, just 10 days or so after Josh opened the doors of Underground Books, literally underground, several steps below street level in a 100-year-old basement in our historic downtown. Megan, an English student at the University of West Georgia, walked in, fell down the rabbit hole, and never left! Reader, we married in May of 2014, under the book arch that now resides at the bookshop. We are both proud alumni of the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar (CABS), and Megan additionally of Rare Book School at the University of Virginia and of the ABAA Women's Initiative Mentorship Program.
We have two open bookshops that carry new, used, bargain, rare, and antiquarian books, as well as our online office, impossible without our incredible team of booksellers, including two fellow CABS graduates, Miranda McMillan and Suzanne Carnes.
Like many booksellers with open brick-and-mortar stores, we are passionate generalists, but our specialties are in decorative publisher's cloth bindings; fairy tales, folklore, and mythology; popular science and natural history; the occult; and fine press books.
