1787WRCAM55477APhiladelphia: Printed for Seddon Spotswood Cist and Trenchard 1787. 2615-674pp. plus one plate of two. Lacks folding table. Engraved and letterpress titlepages. Later blue wrappers with facsimile of printed volume titlepage mounted on front wrapper. Moderate soiling to wrappers. Minor toning and foxing to text closed marginal repair to one leaf. About very good. The first periodical printing of the United States Constitution probably issued within a week of its release as a broadside. The Constitutional Convention ratified its final draft on Monday Sept. 17 1787. The following day the broadside version issued for members of the Convention was printed by Dunlap and Claypoole the official printers. On September 19 the same printers issued the first public printing of the Constitution in their newspaper THE PENNSYLVANIA PACKET. The present magazine was probably printed late in the week and the final signature containing the Constitution and recent news was probably printed on Saturday September 22. This is the latest internal date on the last page and actually refers to an event that took place on the 17th as "Monday last." From a survey of Mott's HISTORY OF AMERICAN MAGAZINES in the period it seems that it was common practice to issue monthly publications by the last week of every month. This issue would seem to have been out and in general circulation by Monday the 24th one week after the end of the Convention. Its version of the Constitution was executed most likely on the 22nd four days after the official broadside and three days after the first public newspaper appearance. This issue also contains the text of John Quincy Adams's Harvard commencement address he finished second in a class of fifty-one which was given in Cambridge on July 18 1787. It is his first published writing. This copy contains one of the two plates published in this issue lacking the folding plate of the Natural Bridge in Virginia and the folding table of meteorological observations. <br> <br> THE COLUMBIAN MAGAZINE was a distinguished publication of the period. Mott calls it one of the best 18th-century American magazines. It began in September 1786 and was well established with Mathew Carey's AMERICAN MUSEUM as one of the two major periodicals then being issued in Philadelphia or for that matter the country at the time. Since the magazine probably had wider circulation than the newspapers issued in Philadelphia it is likely that this printing was one of the chief means of disseminating the Constitution immediately after its first publication. <br> <br> An exceptionally early and important printing of the Constitution.
