Contact seller5-star sellerFirst editions. A broken run of this very uncommon bimonthly regional magazine from Wyoming which began publication in May of 1929 and went through at least April of 1930, with 24 issues in Volume I. After 1930, we find no mention of the publication, so it seems to have ceased after just 1 year. According to his obituary in theC…asper Star-Tribunefrom 1960, editor Emmett Fuller was a merchant and newspaperman in Casper before publishing the Pepper Pot,which folded due to a limited audience in the state. He then went on to publish a similar magazine,Western Progress,in Denver in 1932, andThe New Mexico Engineerin Albuquerque in the 1940s. The Pepper Pot'smission was to "inform, to entertain, and to assist in the more rapid and proper development of the state. [by] bringing forth Wyoming literary talent; Wyoming scientific, inventive and business genius; and [through] wholesome discussion of matters important to the state." Perhaps the most well-known name, and one which appears frequently throughout these issues is that of Lora Webb Nichols, (1883-1962), with articles, stories, and poems. Nichols was a photographer from Encampment, Wyoming whose bold Western images captured the spirit of pioneer life in and around the copper mining town. She would loan her cameras to cowboys and other passers-through, asking them to return photographs which she would then develop in her studio. Other names which appear in these pages are Tim J. Mahoney, Doris Garst, Perry W. Jenkins, Daphne Rowell, Christy MacManus, Sheila Hart, Sylvia Oldman Upwall, and others. OCLC cites holdings for scattered issues only at the Universities of Wyoming and Brown. . 10 volumes, 20x14cm. Photos, illustrations, advertisements. Each staple bound in colorful printed wrappers, generally in very good condition with occasional minor chipping at corners or spines. No. 12 with some damp staining along edges.
