193320421933. Etching on cream laid paper with a deckle edge 12 5/8 x 8 11/16 322 x 222 mm; sheet 18 x 11 1/2 inches 457 x 291 mm full margins. Signed by both Arms and Eby in the lower right margin dated by Arms. In excellent condition with no visible defects. <br /> <br /> This plate was the work of both Arms and Eby: Arms doing the buildings Eby the figures and trees.<br /> It is for this reason the most problematic plate of either artist. According to Fletcher there were 6 states each of which was printed and reworked by both artists. Between the 5th and 6th state the plate was steeled desteeled rebitten and had additional work done by Eby and then refaced in steel. The 6th state edition resulted in 100 total impressions printed by Eby 50 for Eby 50 for Arms. Those for Eby were for distribution through Frederick Keppel & Co. and those for Arms for Kennedy & Co. After 62 pullings of the 5th state Eby stopped the edition; defaced the plate rebit the surface in the center of the plate particularly in the area of the figures resteeled the surface and finished the edition with 38 pullings. Since the plate was reworked this is considered an additional state bringing the total to 6. This impression appears to be one of the last state impressions from either the edition of 62 5th state impressions or the group 38 6th state impressions. In the lower right there appear the letters "sb" whether this lends a clue to this particular print's origin is something lost to history. <br /> <br /> Fletcher 270B.

18451358841845. Rare printing of the 1845 annual report of the Commissioner of the General Land Office of the United States of America. Octavo disbound. Contains numerous folding maps and public surveys of Indiana Michigan Iowa Wisconsin Missouri Illinois Arkansas South Tennessee Southeastern Louisiana Alabama showing Chickasaw Cherokee and Creek Cessions and the State of Florida. In near fine condition. Rare. The first great expansion of the United States of America came with the Louisiana Purchase of 1803 which doubled the country's territory although the southeastern border with Spanish Florida was the subject of much dispute until it and Spanish claims to the Oregon Country were ceded to the US in 1821. The annexation of the Republic of Texas in 1845 led directly to the Mexican–American War after which the victorious United States obtained the northern half of Mexico's territory including what was quickly made the state of California. However as the development of the country moved west the question of slavery became more important with vigorous debate over whether the new territories would allow slavery and events such as the Missouri Compromise and Bleeding Kansas. This came to a head in 1860 and 1861 when the governments of the southern states proclaimed their secession from the country and formed the Confederate States of America leading to the American Civil War. unknown
18292994Mexico City: January 5 1829. Very good. Broadside 12 x 8.25 inches. Light wear center horizontal fold pinholes along left edge. A rare decree issued by Jose Maria Tornel y Mendivil Governor of the Federal District attempting to regulate the disbursement and possession of guns in Mexico in 1829. Tornel notes that in recent times weapons belonging to the army have been "misplaced" around Mexico City. Collecting the weapons is "extremely urgent because the destiny of these weapons is to serve internal tranquility and the defense of the republic against external enemies." The order reserves the right of access to weapons for those "enlisted in the permanent active or local militia." Tornel authorizes the commanding general and local militia leaders to collect weapons held by civilians without a license to carry them. The bottom of the decree is signed in type by Tornel and his secretary.<br /> <br /> The presidential election of September 1 1828 saw Guerrero come in second. Two weeks later Santa Anna rose in support of Guerrero in Vera Cruz. In November of that year in Mexico City Guerrero supporters took control of the Acordada a former prison transformed into an armory and days of fighting broke out in the capital. These are no doubt the "recent events" referred to in the present decree that led to arms being scattered around the city. An interesting moment in the history of gun control in Mexico and a rare decree. OCLC reports just a single copy of this decree at the Bancroft Library. January 5 unknown

19293587New York: Macmillan 1929. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Very good . Folio 179pp. illustrated with 51 etchings by John Taylor Arms with an original etching as frontispiece signed in pencil by John Taylor Arms as issued. A very good or better copy in the publisher's black cloth with white linen spine and applied label on front board. Some foxing to extremities including the fore-edge and the margins of a few leaves but really a clean and bright copy internally with tissue guards still present. The matte over the frontispiece is loosened from the etching itself though still bound in perhaps it was issued this way. The only notable flaw is a 2-inch closed tear to the front edge of the title page not approaching any text. This is copy number 53 of 200 copies SIGNED by the author on the limitation page. A truly scarce book as we found just one recent auction record for the signed limited edition from more than a decade ago and no copies in commerce as of this listing. Macmillan hardcover
