On this day in 1904, B.J. and Mabel Palmer were married in Davenport at Mabel’s parents’ house in a small private wedding. Throughout their nearly 45 years of marriage, the “hurry lady” and the “little builder” led a life full of adventure, challenges, and remarkable achievements. Their partnership left a legacy that continues on at Palmer College of Chiropractic.

We’re stepping back into time with this vintage elementary watercolor set from Rowney in London. There are fifteen tubes of paint in this tin along with five brushes of various sizes. Although we are unsure which Palmer family member used these paints, the set appears to be well loved!
