1715WRCAM39768London 1715. Small folio broadsheet. 1p. plus printed docket title on verso. Ornamental initial. Dbd. Early folds and early stab holes in left margin. Mild foxing. Very good. A petition to Parliament by the officers of Lieut. Gen. George Hamilton's Regiment of Foot seeking pay due for services abroad in the War of Spanish Succession. Lord George Douglas-Hamilton 1666-1737 was a Scottish Williamite officer during the Glorious Revolution who later married William III's mistress Elizabeth Villiers became a confidant of William was created Earl of Orkney in 1696 was appointed Governor of Virginia in 1714 and in 1736 was the first British general promoted to the rank of Field Marshal. In 1701 at the beginning of the War of the Spanish Succession Hamilton led the First Regiment of Foot the Royal Scots to the Netherlands where the regiment fought for the remainder of the war. Despite their long service and the high position of Hamilton the officers suggest in the present petition that having been so long overseas they had been forgotten by the British government and charge that they had not received their pay even after frequent petitions. The document is an early example of lobbying literature which first began proliferating in the lobby of the House of Commons at the time of the accession of King George I and the British general election of 1715. ESTC records four copies two at the British Library one at Oxford and one at the National Library of Scotland. unknown books

185054948Boston: Jonathan Howe 1850. Unusually large broadsheet printed on blue paper approx. 21" x 17"; manuscript docket in the margin previous folds one or two short tears; very good. With a wood-engraved eagle approx. 2" x 6" at the top of the recto and a slightly smaller wood engraving of a sailing vessel at the top of the verso. The recto contains the pertinent acts regarding seamen the verso containing a ship's manifest: "No ardent spirits allowed on board . It is agreed between the master seamen or mariners of the in manuscript: ship Ariel of Bath whereof Reed is at present master or whoever shall go for master now bound from the port of Bath to New Orleans or Mobile Al. That in consideration of the monthly or other wages." The recto prints the full text of the law passed in 1790 together with the 1840 amendment. At the bottom is a small "Custom House" form blank to be signed by the collector certifying "that these shipping articles are a true copy of the original." The recto also includes a printed advertisement for Jonathan Howe Book and Job Printer of Boston. Below the printed contract on the verso there is a tabular form containing the signatures of ten seamen and 1 carpenter all from Boston with their wages filled in all witnessed by one L. E. Keyes and dated in manuscript in the margin "Bost. Nov. 1852." The positions of Master Mate 2nd Mate Steward and Cook are listed in manuscript but have no signatures next to them.

185946765New-York: George W. Matsell & Co 1859. First Edition. Small 12mo 12.5cm.; publisher's blue pebble-grained blind-embossed cloth gilt-lettered spine dark brown glazed endpapers; vi7-1301adpp. Boards gently scuffed corners bumped else a Very Good quite brilliant copy. Early American slang dictionary by a commissioner of the New York City police force about two-thirds of the work plagiarized from English sources though the author here claims that "Occupying the position of a Special Justice and Chief of the Police of the great Metropolis of New-York where thieves and others of a like character from all parts of the world congregate and realizing the necessity of possessing a positive knowledge of every thing connected with the class of individuals with whom it was my duty to deal I was naturally led to study their peculiar language" p. iv. The work appears to be aimed at readers of Matsell's newspaper the "National Police Gazette" advertized on the last leaf of text. A random dip into the early leaves reveals such unknown slang words as "Ard" hot though the OED only defines this as an obsolete form of "Hard." More recognizable listings appear under "Cow" a dilapidated prostitute while her "grease" is butter her "juice" is milk and "Cows and Kisses" applies to the ladies. George W.

Revolt in the Desert was an instant bestseller on both sides of the Atlantic and "within weeks of publication the combined royalties from Revolt were more than sufficient to pay off the Seven Pillars overdraft.

Revolt continued to sell well however both in the United States and in translation" Wilson 1988 pp. 180.

42196The larger print of Jonah getting coughed up by the whale "Evomit Absorptum Caeco de Guttere Coetus" ca. 1615 is signed on the plate "Marten de Vos Inventor." It is a later adaptation of one of de Vos's 1585 series of four engravings illustrating the story of Jonah. Image size is 20 1/4 x 16 inches. I love the image and the title is wonderful too. I hardly ever get to buy or sell anything with "Evomit" in the title. In earlier states Jehovah was pictured in person as in the smaller engraving which measures 9 3/4 x 8 1/8 inches. In later states His image was replaced by a symbolic tetragram. Later still as in this large print God disappears completely from the scene. The large print is in very good condition with a faint central fold line. It is trimmed to the margin. The smaller print is untrimmed. Both prints books

Staple-bound in orange stiff paper wrappers with cloth spine printed label mounted on front cover erratum affixed to inside cover a few holograph corrections by the author with his corrected address label affixed. Fine. The Reverend J. B. Read 1801 - 1870 began his experiments in chemistry at an early age. In an1839 letter he wrote to his brother that was quoted by Sir David Brewster in 1847 describing a photographic process involving silver nitrate and gallic acid which was fixed with "hypo" sodium hyposufite. As a result Brewster's assertions that Reade's experiments pre-dated Talbot's caloype patent were adopted in the early histories. In this letter to Robert Hunt the photographer and historian who penned the first English book on photography " A Popular Treatise on the Art of Photography 1841" Reade stakes his claim as one of the early inventor of the medium. These claims later were proved incorrect. <br/><br/>The Three offprints by Derek Wood provided an in-depth history of Reade's actual experiments and contributions and correct the prior misconceptions of chronological events.<br/><br/>Roosen and Salu No. 9204 and 9205.

1811319697Philadelphia: George Hyde 1811. 6pp. followed by 84pp. blanks. Contemporary manuscript correction on p. 4. 8vo. Original red morocco bound by George Hyde upper cover lettered in gilt "Subscriptions / for a / Monument / to / General Washington" below "Jefferson / County". Covers detached spine worn and chipped original marbled endpapers g.e. 6pp. followed by 84pp. blanks. Contemporary manuscript correction on p. 4. 8vo. An unaccomplished subscription book intended to record funds raised by the Pennsylvania Society of the Cincinnati for a monument to Washington. The committee for the monument included Horace Binney D. Lenox R. Peters W. Jackson and Charles Biddle.<br/><br/>The text of the resolution contained within this subscription book explains: ".With this view books will be sent to two or more persons in each organized county in the state with a request that they will recieve subscriptions for the object . after the books are closed which will be on the fifth of July 1812 they will be deposited among the archives of the Society ." Evidently the present volume was unused by a Society member of Jefferson County. <br/><br/>The amount of monies collected proved too few. Nevertheless the funds which were collected were evidently invested and additional funds were added over time; in 1881 Rudolf Siemering was commissioned by the Society to create the sculpture of Washington on horseback which now sits on Benjamin Franklin Parkway in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art<br/><br/>The original receipt for the printing and binding of this subscription work survives in the library of the Society indicating that 107 copies were printed and bound by George Hyde of Philadelphia.

By the time that the Society published its second constitution the Order had changed its membership rules to admit militia and other officers and then their heirs diluting its elite nature though not renouncing it.<br>Â Â Â Â This publication demonstrates that compositional change among many others as it traces the Society via its own documents from its founding at the "Cantonment of the American Army on Hudson's River 10th May 1783" through the incorporation of the Pennsylvania branch to the death of Gen.

Government Printing Office. Place of Publication: "Washington D.C." By 1943 when the labor shortage was most acute the two agencies worked together in concerted campaigns targeting employers to hire women and women to become 'production soldiers'" Yellin Our Mothers' War p. 44.
