3733615<p>Likely Dover. n.p. 1870. Broadside 34 x 24 inches. Light signs of wear; near fine.</p> <p>Nearly three feet tall exceptionally large and unrecorded. This ca. 1870 broadside captures 19th-century Delaware politics and the era’s spirit of political engagement and reform in American society.</p> <p>On Thursday October 6 the Independent Democratic Voters of Kent County met under the banner of ‘Retrenchment and Reform’ to address key issues. Their main goal was to nominate an Independent Democratic County Ticket that upheld Democratic principles but remained free from factional ties. This ticket pledged to support a ‘wise and economical administration’ of the state government emphasizing fiscal responsibility and good governance.</p> <p>The meeting included supporters of the Democratic Party who called for government reform spending cuts and fair taxation. They backed a tax law to ensure timely interest payments reduce state debt and distribute tax burdens evenly. Members also sought to correct mismanagement in state and county affairs.</p> <p>Prominent figures such as Hon. John A. Nicholson Edward Ridgley Beniah Watson and Elias S. Reed addressed the gathering adding gravitas to the proceedings. The event added a touch civic celebration as the Independent Cornet Brass Band of Dover performed for the gathering. </p> <p>Nineteenth century Delaware broadsides of this size are rare.</p> unknown

'82 '86 and '87 have light soiling to front covers. <br/><br/>A wayzgoose was a traditional gift from a master printer to his workmen each year in celebration of St. Bartholomew's Day in order to mark the end of the summer season and the beginning of autumn when work had to be done by candlelight. The tradition has continued into the contemporary period but instead of a gift a celebration is held by printing presses for their staff. Since 1979 annual get-togethers have been held in Grimsby Ontario to celebrate the art of the hand-made book by North American private-press printers bookbinders and papermakers. Part of the Grimsby Wayzgoose tradition includes the production of these anthologies in order to demonstrate the craftsmanship of participants in the annual fair. Signatures sections are hand bound into these attractive volumes now widely sought after by bibliophiles. This unbroken 23-year run features creative printing and quirky illustrations often numbered and signed by their creators. Treat yourself to some truly entertaining printers' art. hardcover
