Pioneering American educator (1804–1894) who opened the doors of the first English-language kindergarten in the United States. She was one of the first teachers to really embrace and promote the developmental values in children’s play. As a writer, Peabody was a pivotal figure in the Trandscendental movement. Her West Street Bookstore, provided a meeting place for many women’s meetings. ALS signed “Elizabeth P. Peabody,” one page, 5.25 x 8.25, graph-like paper letterhead, no date. In a letter to Dr. Rimmer, Peabody writes, in part: “The bearer of this note is Mrs. Bolta, lady of the distinguised Italian Bolta, who wrote the Life of Lord Cavour—She draws some & came to Concord, having heard in New York, that your class here was in the fill tide of successful experiment! & wishing to join it.” Affixed to a slightly larger sheet. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one of which lightly affects two letters of the first name, scattered creasing, light toning, a few small spots of soiling, and several edge tears.
