Nathan Reist Papers, 1877-1907
Description
This collection contains documents related to Nathan Reist, a teacher, amateur photographer, and Lititz resident. These documents cover a period of roughly thirty years-from 1877 to at least 1907-and the majority concern his teaching career. Students' practice ledgers, writing books, and art evince the variety of classes taught by Reist. A ledger records the activities of a Teachers' Natural Science Club and a leaflet advertises a bee judged by Reist. The few remaining items are a mix of ephemera and advertisements.
