1850WRCAM40555New York: Casper C. Childs 1850. 35pp. Illus. Dbd. Some light tanning. Small stains to first three leaves. Minor paper loss to top of last page not affecting text. Very good. English translation from the original Spanish of Velasquez' supposed memoir actually a concoction dreamed up to draw attention to the two small mixed-blood children which were hauled about and displayed in America and on the continent. The children described as "Descendants and Specimens of the Sacerdotal Cast of the Ancient Aztecs" were in reality of mixed Indian Spanish and Negro blood and were enslaved near San Miguel. "It is the most circumstantial fiction which the brain of an advertising agent ever conceived" - Field. Sabin records three issues printed this same year; this printing by Childs appears to be the scarcest of the three. SABIN 98812. FIELD 1598. Casper C. Childs unknown books
1853165812London: Printed by C. Paul 1853. Small octavo pp. 1-4 i-v vi-viii 1 2-38 6 inserted plates other illustrations in the text quarter diced brown calf and marbled boards with original cream pictorial wrappers printed in red bound in. Possible first British edition. Published earlier in the U.S. as MEMOIR OF AN EVENTFUL EXPEDITION INTO CENTRAL AMERICA . in several editions in 1850. There were several undated editions published in London priority not known. A completely fictitious narrative which can be considered a "lost race" novelette of an expedition commencing in 1849 into an unexplored region of Guatemala and the discovery of a lost Aztec city and its inhabitants supposedly descended from ancient Assyrians and the subsequent introduction of two of its Lilliputian members to the civilized world. Details of the journey are provided by the diary entries of Senor Pedro Velaquez of San Salvador described as "a man of family and education although a trader in indigo." The supposed "Memoir" was a hoax inspired by strong public interest in the trips to Central America by John L. Stephens "the American traveler" in 1839 and 1841. The two mixed blood "Aztec children" enslaved near San Miguel were exhibited at circus sideshows in America and Europe. See Sabin 98812 for a detailed note.
