183770803Paris: Félix Bonnaire 1837. Fine. Félix Bonnaire Paris 1837 13.50 x 21.50 cm relié Edition with some parts in first edition. Autograph inscription from the author: ""A mon cousin et bon ami Sicard. Auguste Barbier."" ""To my cousin and good friend Sicard. Auguste Barbier."" Followed by a note: ""Après la mort de M. Sicard M. Auguste Barbier est venu à Angers et a donné ce livre à M. Selou notaire."" ""After the death of M. Sicard M. Auguste Barbier came to Angers and gave this book to M. Selou notary."" Iambes is augmented with 3 unpublished poems and the collection Lazare appears for the first time. Contemporary half green Russian leather with corners. Smooth spine decorated with a large central decorative panel roll tool at foot. Gilt title and date. Rubbing to corners. Some pale foxing and browning. Very handsome copy. Les Iambes initially appeared in 1832 and remains the author's best-known collection which made him immediately famous and made him the spokesman for the July 1830 Revolution and one of the essential figures of Romanticism. ""This collection ranks him among the greatest combat poets between Agrippa d'Aubigné and Victor Hugo"" Laffont-Bompiani Dictionnaire des Oeuvres. Hugo said he found in Iambes ""astonishing verses that no one else will ever write again"" and Baudelaire that he was ""naturally a poet and a great poet."" The series of poems on social misery Lazare which completes the work is one of Barbier's greatest successes and makes the entire collection the most important published by the author in an inspiration that the poet for many critics would never surpass again.

180269953Newport R.I.: Tuesday September 28 1802. Issue no. 2112. Folio approx. 18¾" x 11½" pp. 4; text in quadruple column; previous folds in quarters light staining paper a bit toned 2 or 3 tiny holes else very good. The front page prints a 2-column account from the New-York Evening Post on "Jefferson vs. Callender" concerning payments made by Jefferson to James T. Callender ostensibly to buy the latter's silence and this is followed on page 2 by an early public disclosure taken "from a Baltimore paper" of the long-term sexual "relationship" between President Thomas Jefferson and a woman enslaved to him Sally Hemings. After being refused an appointment to a postmaster position by Thomas Jefferson and issuing veiled threats of "consequences" journalist James T. Callender reported that "the President of the United States keeps and has for many years kept one of his own slaves as a concubine and that he has had several children by her." The article either by Callender himself in the third person or a political ally is signed by "One of the People." Jefferson made no public comment on the matter. The Newport Mercury founded in 1758 by Ann Smith Franklin 1696-1763 and her son James Franklin 1730-1762 the nephew of Benjamin Franklin is one of the oldest in the country. It was likely the first American newspaper edited by a woman and was also first paper to publish poetry by an African American Phillis Wheatley. The paper was published regulary up until the time of the British occupation of Newport in December 1776 and was started up again in 1780 by Solomon Southwick in partnership with Henry Barber. Barber died in 1800 and the paper continued to be published by his wife Ann whose name had appeared in the Mercury imprint as early as 1795 and later their children. Tuesday, September 28 unknown

1863List308N.p. 1863. Dark carved wood 11 ½ x 11 ½ x 1 inches with bone border and star inlays in corners an inlaid tree with carved names of Civil War battles as leaves. During the Civil War wounded or captured soldiers would often pass their time waiting to return to duty carving relics. The practice was fairly common with pipes being the most commonly carved object and the quality of the relics varied wildly depending on the talent of the soldier. A.H. Barber from Wisconsin was wounded at Antietam and most likely carved this memorial piece while recovering from his wounds. Each leaf notes a different battle during the 1861-1862 campaigns. Barber enlisted in Company C of the 2nd Wisconsin in 1861 and was discharged in 1863 following wounds suffered at Antietam. The trunk reads Battles for the Union and the four branches read Dept. of the South Army of Virginia & of the Potomac and Dept. of the West with twenty-nine leaves naming battles. <br /> <br /> The resultant plaque is exceptional in timeliness craftsmanship and overall aesthetic beauty. Barber’s metaphorically growing tree is particularly timely for the Union cause as the 1863 failure of the Maryland Campaign would serve as inspiration to Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. Wonderfully preserved in excellent condition with no notable flaws. From the collection of Norm Flaydernman the noted Americana dealer who personally collected carved Civil War pipes and had been planning to write a book on the subject at the time of his death. unknown
