Roberts, Professor of English, was the second Dean of Westhampton College, from 1947 to 1965. Born in Rockport, Indiana on March 15, 1904, she was the daughter of the Hon. Judge Ralph Elmer and Alice Enfield (nee Saunders) Roberts. She was educated at Evansville College where she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1924. She received her Master's and Ph.D. degrees from Radcliffe College in 1928 and 1943 respectively. From 1928 to 1936, she taught in Central and Bosse High Schools in Evansville, and also at Evansville College. She did graduate work at Indiana University and Cambridge University during the years 1925-1929. In 1937, Dr. Roberts became Dean of Women and Assistant Professor of English at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, and served in that capacity until 1946. She lectured in English at Toronto University from 1946 to 1947, when she came to Westhampton College as Dean and Professor of English. In 1965, she left the position as Dean and continued as a Professor of English until her retirement in 1975.","Dr. Roberts' most notable quality as a teacher was always her strong demand for excellence from her students, something she certainly mirrored in her tenacity in her research and writing. Her personal grace and charm were also mentioned many times, as was her ability to put faculty and students at ease in social settings.","Dr. Roberts was a leading Thomas Hardy scholar and actually lived for a year in 1935 at Max Gate, Dorset, the Hardy estate, with Hardy's widow, Florence. Her doctoral dissertation was titled  Thomas Hardy and the Theater . She continued with this theme in two of her scholarly publications,  Tess in the Theater , 1950, and  Hardy's Poetic Drama and the Theater , 1965. A third book,  Florence Hardy and the Max Gate Circle , was eventually published in the Thomas Hardy Yearbook, no. 9 (1980).","During the Vietnam War, Dr. Roberts was appointed by the Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara, to the Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services, 1965-68. In addition to being a Virginia Cultural Laureate, Dr. Roberts was also associate editor of the  Journal of the Deans of Women , 1942-50; member of Phi Beta Kappa, American Association of University Professors, Modern Language Association, the Canadian Author's Association, and the Virginia Writer's Association. She was also president of the Women's Club of Richmond, 1970-1971. Health issues forced her to return to Indiana, where, after a long illness, she died on March 25, 1988.","Processed by Elizabeth Dickie, Special Collections Cataloging and Preservation Associate.","The rare book collection at Boatwright Library has volumes that were gifted to Dr. Roberts and items that were gifts of Dr. Roberts. Those items are noted in the library catalog records and may be located by searching her name. Dr. Roberts also did an oral history interview on 14 April 1976 that is available as part of the  Westhampton College Oral Histories  in audio and transcription.","This collection encompasses Dr. Roberts' research and writing about Thomas Hardy. It includes her research for her books and articles, collected information about Hardy and Wessex, England, as well as her manuscripts, journal articles and dissertation. What is interesting about this collection is the extent to which Dr. Roberts pursued her subject, leaving no stone unturned, and the relationships that grew during her research and lasted long after. Most notable was her long-term relationship with Florence Hardy.","Series I, The Dynasts, contains materials relating to Hardy's drama in verse,  The Dynasts . This material is of note since this seems to have been a little studied piece.  This series includes a leather-bound copy of The Dynasts arranged by Harley Granville-Barker. (Box 1)","Series II, Hardy's Dramatic Poetry and the Theater, focuses on the work  Hardy's Poetic Drama and Theater . Materials include research and manuscripts in various states of editing, and notes of the various productions of Hardy's plays. (Box 2)","Series III, Tess and the Theater, includes materials on  Tess and the Theater , originally part of Roberts' dissertation. Hardy's book,  Tess of the D'Urbervilles , was first dramatized by Hardy.  Several versions of his play were produced and documented here. Ronald Gow and Lorimer Stoddard attempted their own versions, copies of which are in the collection, along with information and playbills about their productions. (Boxes 3, 4, and 5)","Series IV, Hardy and the Theater, focuses on Dr. Roberts's dissertation,  Hardy and the Theater . This series contains correspondence from actors and historians about the Hardy Players, permission requests, research notes, drafts of the dissertation, and a bound copy of  Hardy and the Theater . (Boxes 6, 7, and 8)","Series V, Max Gate Circle, contains her work on the Max Gate Circle. Hardy's home, Max Gate, drew many famous and even infamous people.  With Hardy's advancing age and infirmity, it was often Florence, his second wife, who held things together. This series includes letters and vignettes of Florence's conversations with Dr. Roberts, along with memories, copies of letters and various drafts of the finished piece. (Boxes 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13)","Series VI, General Research, is a collection of Dr. Roberts's general research and information on Thomas Hardy, Florence Hardy, Dorset, and those certain of Hardy's contemporaries. (Boxes 14, 15, and 16)","Series VII, Manuscripts and Journals, includes manuscripts of Dr. Roberts which are not in her books, and journals in which her articles appear or are related to her Hardy scholarship. (Boxes 17 and 18)","Series VIII, Personal, contains items that do not really fit with any of the other series and have been classed as Personal. There are papers from her visit to the House of Commons, letters from friends and former professors. (Box 18)","Copyright restrictions may apply. Unpublished manuscripts are protected by copyright.

He was a student at the University of Richmond in 1926, though it is not clear if he graduated. In 1938, Willis A. Shell married  Eleanor Roberts , with whom he would start the  Attic Press  from their home at 311 W. Franklin St. in Richmond, VA. While it is unclear how he managed to get his 2000-pound 1840 Washington hand press, a Christmas present from his wife, into the attic of his home, it stayed there until they moved in 1958 to 2113 Hanover Ave. in Richmond VA.  Besides co-owning and operating the Attic Press with Eleanor, Willis A. Shell also worked at the  William Byrd Press  from 1933-1971. He started at the William Byrd Press in February of 1933 as a salesman and then as a book designer, working there until he retired in  September 1971  as the Vice President in charge of sales for Richmond, VA. Eleanor graduated from  Parsons School of Design  and worked as an  illustrator  for the  Richmond New Leader , where she developed a regular art feature for the Sunday  Times-Dispatch  from 1935-1950.  ","His first handmade book was  The Night After Christmas . Willis and Eleanor worked together and separately on projects. For example, for the book  An Allegorical ABC Book About Father Junipero Serra , published in  1977 , Willis printed the book, and Eleanor provided the illustrations. A printing proof from this book is included in the collection. There are booklets and pamphlets from the Attic Press and the William Byrd Press included within this collection and over thirty other books and pamphlets from other publishers. In addition, this collection contains copies of the obituaries of Willis and Eleanor Shell, memories of Willis and Eleanor Shell written by her niece, Margaret Roberts Thomas, and ephemera, booklets, and pamphlets relating to Willis A. Shell and his publishing companies. Due to the quality of his work, Willis A. Shell quickly became a respected printer and illustrator. In 1952 he produced three of the five entries from Richmond, VA for a 1952 Southeastern Library Association competition. These five entries were part of the total of 16 volumes designated as the best in Southern book production. Another interesting proof in this collection is a book created in nine days for Colonial Williamsburg. The combination of Eleanor's reputation as an illustrator and Willis' unique book design and printing led to the commission from Colonial Williamsburg to produce a book about Williamsburg crafts to present to Queen Elizabeth during her 1954 visit. One book he designed while at William Byrd Press was  David John Mays '  Edmund Pendleton , which won a Pulitzer Prize. Shell was also a charter member of the Bibliographic Society of the University of Virginia. He also served as chairman of the Special Collections Committee at the Richmond Public Library and was a member of the Rotunda Club, the Advertising Federation of America, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and the Virginia Historical Society. Eleanor was a member of the Woman's Club, the Friends of Richmond Public Library, the Virginia Bibliographical Society, and the Associates of the James Branch Cabell Library.  ","Due to their ties to the print and illustration community, the  Shell  collection also holds a variety of materials created by friends, including Christmas cards from both  David Clinger  and  Warren Chappell , both noted figures in their own fields and donors to the Galvin Rare Book Room collections. The Shell's Christmas cards, like many other ones in the collection, were completely handmade; each year, they would design, print, and illustrate each card. After a noted and remarkable life, Eleanor Shell passed away February 26, 1974, and Willis A. Shell, Jr. passed away on March 14, 1989. ","This collection arrived as a single unit with the majority of materials mixed together. The processor decided to separate by related materials and by chronological order with the Christmas cards.","An item level inventory can be made available by reaching out to archives@richmond.edu.","MS-35 David Clinger Collection","The Willis \u0026 Eleanor Shell Collection holds booklets, pamphlets, print proofs and other items relating to the illustrator and printer, Willis A.

The Shells founded The Attic Press while Willis Shell, Jr., also worked at The William Byrd Press from 1933-1977. Materials include illustration mock-ups, print advertisements, Attic Press materials, and personal Christmas cards from friends and fellow illustrators, including David Clinger and Warren Chappell.","Copyright restrictions may apply.

He was a student at the University of Richmond in 1926, though it is not clear if he graduated. In 1938, Willis A. Shell married  Eleanor Roberts , with whom he would start the  Attic Press  from their home at 311 W. Franklin St. in Richmond, VA. While it is unclear how he managed to get his 2000-pound 1840 Washington hand press, a Christmas present from his wife, into the attic of his home, it stayed there until they moved in 1958 to 2113 Hanover Ave. in Richmond VA.  Besides co-owning and operating the Attic Press with Eleanor, Willis A. Shell also worked at the  William Byrd Press  from 1933-1971. He started at the William Byrd Press in February of 1933 as a salesman and then as a book designer, working there until he retired in  September 1971  as the Vice President in charge of sales for Richmond, VA. Eleanor graduated from  Parsons School of Design  and worked as an  illustrator  for the  Richmond New Leader , where she developed a regular art feature for the Sunday  Times-Dispatch  from 1935-1950.  ","His first handmade book was  The Night After Christmas . Willis and Eleanor worked together and separately on projects. For example, for the book  An Allegorical ABC Book About Father Junipero Serra , published in  1977 , Willis printed the book, and Eleanor provided the illustrations. A printing proof from this book is included in the collection. There are booklets and pamphlets from the Attic Press and the William Byrd Press included within this collection and over thirty other books and pamphlets from other publishers. In addition, this collection contains copies of the obituaries of Willis and Eleanor Shell, memories of Willis and Eleanor Shell written by her niece, Margaret Roberts Thomas, and ephemera, booklets, and pamphlets relating to Willis A. Shell and his publishing companies. Due to the quality of his work, Willis A. Shell quickly became a respected printer and illustrator. In 1952 he produced three of the five entries from Richmond, VA for a 1952 Southeastern Library Association competition. These five entries were part of the total of 16 volumes designated as the best in Southern book production. Another interesting proof in this collection is a book created in nine days for Colonial Williamsburg. The combination of Eleanor's reputation as an illustrator and Willis' unique book design and printing led to the commission from Colonial Williamsburg to produce a book about Williamsburg crafts to present to Queen Elizabeth during her 1954 visit. One book he designed while at William Byrd Press was  David John Mays '  Edmund Pendleton , which won a Pulitzer Prize. Shell was also a charter member of the Bibliographic Society of the University of Virginia. He also served as chairman of the Special Collections Committee at the Richmond Public Library and was a member of the Rotunda Club, the Advertising Federation of America, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and the Virginia Historical Society. Eleanor was a member of the Woman's Club, the Friends of Richmond Public Library, the Virginia Bibliographical Society, and the Associates of the James Branch Cabell Library.  ","Due to their ties to the print and illustration community, the  Shell  collection also holds a variety of materials created by friends, including Christmas cards from both  David Clinger  and  Warren Chappell , both noted figures in their own fields and donors to the Galvin Rare Book Room collections.
