Description: Correspondence of James F. Mallinckrodt (1842-1921) Published several pamphlets Four 1873 letters to Ida L. Greeley (the two 4-page letters are signed by James F. Mallinckrodt). Two other one page hand written documents (one dated 1873 and is tape along the fold). James Ferdinand Mallinckrodt (1842-1921) was born in Missouri and spent most of his life in St. Louis as part of a distinguished extended German-American family; his Mallinckrodt second cousins founded a famous pharmaceutical firm. James served the Union as a lieutenant in the 17th Missouri Infantry during the Civil War, and then embarked on an eclectic career as a machinist, draughtsman, and scientific model-maker. He also styled himself a literary figure, publishing several pamphlets and frequent letters to the editor, and corresponding with famous authors. In 1915 he removed to Salt Lake City to live with his brother and nephew; he is not thought to have been a Mormon. This is part of a large collection of autographs that I will be listing over the next couple of days.
