18854504774Melbourne 1885. Light spotting to the certificate and moiré silk doublure; well preserved in fine condition. Large folio-sized presentation album framing lithographed and hand-painted illuminated manuscript address 435 x 315 mm ink and watercolour two large initials gilt with red and blue foliate decoration and initials alternating red and blue with moiré silk doublure by Charles Troedel; dark tan grained morocco with four perforated brass corner fittings and a medallion metal centerpiece. <p><p>This handsome illuminated address was commissioned by the Deutscher Verein or German Association of Victoria on behalf of the German population of "we Germans who live abroad" to pay homage to the "Iron Chancellor" Otto von Bismarck on his 70th birthday on the 1st April 1885 and to honour fifty years "in service of the Fatherland". </p> <p>Dedicated to His Highness Prince Otto von Bismarck the address is signed by Hermann William Puttmann 1840-1914 as President of the Association and by the Secretary Ernest Hartung. Puttmann was son of the émigré publisher and man of letters Hermann Puttmann who had founded numbers of short-lived journals and newspapers most notably he published an account of Burke's expedition Geschichte der Victorianischen Expedition zur Erforschung Australien's unter Burke's Leitung 1862. The most long-lasting of these continued by his son Püttmann's Australischer Kalender was a "strange mixture of liberalism and German as well as Australian patriotism"ADB. Such influences are evident in the proud patriotism in the words of the address. As well as citing a couplet from Goethe's Faust in honour of the Chancellor "Not even endless aeons can efface/The trace of your terrestrial days" Puttmann alludes to Australia as new "cultural ground for independent German life.to bloom". Lithographed and signed by the eminent Melbourne printer and lithographer Charles Troedel this address is a testament to the rich cultural life of the German population and the skill of Colonial printers.</p> </p> .

188584205Bismarck Dakota Territory: Bismarck Dakota 1885. Presumed one of multiple original issued. Ribbon. Fair/fragile. Format is approximately 2.5 inches by 6 inches. This is a period black memorial ribbon commemorating the death of civil war icon and 18th President of the United States General Ulysses S. Grant. It is a black satin ribbon which originally had a cartes de visite style photograph applied to the surface. This image has worn away. Written in silver is the inscription: Bismarck Dakota. IN MEMORIAM GENERAL U. S. GRANT Born April 27 1822. Died July 23 1885. It has a tear between the In Memoriam and the space where Grant's image had been. The top is frayed and it appears that a portion of the bottom has been lost. The funeral of Ulysses S. Grant was held on August 8 1885 in New York City Grant's funeral procession surpassed any public demonstration in the country up until that time with an attendance of 1.5 million people and additional ceremonies held in other major cities and communities. The day was described as a final triumphant end to the national drama begun by the Civil War as well as a day to praise Grant's role in preserving the Union. A newspaper editorial proclaimed that Grant's life did not need to be remembered in sculpture pictures prose or poetry because "the union is his monument." The theme of unity was advanced by President Cleveland when he appointed former Confederate Generals Joseph Johnston and Simon B. Buckner to join Union Generals William T. Sherman and Philip H. Sheridan as pallbearers. On August 8 1885 Americans awoke to the solemn sound of tolling bells. Most needed no reminder that this was the day of the funeral of Union general and twice-elected president Ulysses S. Grant. Befitting his already larger-than-life legacy 1.5 million people gathered in New York City to view Grant's funeral procession and the burial ceremonies. The spectacle replete with religious patriotic and nationalistic imagery and rhetoric was but the biggest of the thousands of memorial ceremonies held in the United States on that sad day. <br /> In large and small cities in bustling towns and dusty hamlets citizens had prepared and planned commemorations that complemented New York's. Whether lavish or simple these commemorations were much the same and usually included a procession lasting several hours that ended in a church or other public building. Against a backdrop that included a large picture of Grant a floral decoration a black-draped pulpit a minister a veteran and an elected official would offer eulogies. Prayers music and poems completed the memorial services. The thousands of eulogies and obituaries for Grant across the country stressed his Christian moral character his role in preserving the Union and his magnanimity at Appomattox. The praise for the last was especially loud as eulogists likened the sentiment for sectional reconciliation engendered by Grant's death to a final happy ending to the tragic national drama begun by the Civil War. "There is perhaps no parallel in the history of state funerals" an observer stated "where so many orations were delivered as at yesterday's obsequies." One minister captured a powerful and popular theme of Grant's life: "By a single act General Grant put himself above the wisest of American statesmen. That act was the terms he offered to Lee for the surrender of his Army. In a few clear simple lines he solved at once the problem of peace and the possible unity and fraternity of the American people." A newspaper editorial reflected the prevailing sentiment across the country when it proclaimed that Grant's life did not need to be remembered in sculpture pictures prose or poetry because "the Union is His Monument." The death and funeral of Ulysses S. Grant became a vehicle for a religiously tinged emotional and political reconciliation of North and South and as such is a critical event in the history of the political culture of the United States. "I am sorry General Grant is dead" proclaimed ex-Confederate general and pallbearer Simon Bolivar Buckner "but his death has yet been the greatest blessing the country has ever received now reunion is perfect." The reaction to Ulysses S. Grant's death also reveals a generation's connection between the memory of an event in this case the Civil War; a commemoration in this case Grant's funeral beginning with the deathwatch; and the articulation of a new or renewed basis for American nationalism. Implicit in the statements issued north and south by former Civil War generals and prominent politicians spoken by ministers of every denomination and splashed across the headlines of major newspapers was the important assumption that Grant's deathwatch and funeral forged reconciliation between the sections that in turn ensured the emergence of a powerful and united American nation. Ulysses S. Grant occupied a special place in the hearts and minds of American citizens living in 1885. Beginning in 1862 and continuing until his death Grant was the focus of constant attention and scrutiny. After his controversial terms as president Ulysses and his wife Julia embarked on a lengthy much-publicized tour around the world which ended with his triumphal return to America in 1879.<br /> <br /> The city of Bismarck had a special affinity for President Grant. On September 5 1883 a parade of national figures came together to lay the cornerstone for the new Dakota Territory Capitol in Bismarck. They included Henry Villard president of the Northern Pacific Railway; financier Jay Cooke; former President Ulysses Grant; Hunkpapa Lakota holy man Sitting Bull; and a German minister appearing for Chancellor Otto von Bismarck. More than 3000 people attended the ceremony. Former president Grant was on his way with Henry Villard to the completion ceremony of the Northern Pacific Railroad. It was less than two years later that the citizens of Bismarck mourned by death of Ulysses S. Grant. Bismarck, Dakota unknown
