About This Item

Hilda Martindale. Autograph Letter Signed. Dated April 24, 1939. 1 page. 7 x 4.5 in. Black ink on light blue paper. In her hand, Martindale writes in thanks of a friend's encouragement and sends a copy of her recent work. In full: "Here is my book. You were so encouraging about it that I hope you will accept this copy. The review have been good but the sales bad! Perhaps you would tell people about it?" Martindale was an important advocate for women's employment rights in her day; she made history as one of the first woman factory inspectors in Victorian England, and rose to become the Deputy Chief of her department. In 1938, she published a book on the history of women civil servants (likely the book she references in the letter), and upon her death, her estate established a foundation dedicated to assisting British women working in male-dominated fields. Very good.
