1833262<p>Lansing Alfred A. Alexander Anderson Jacob Maas Milton F. Harrison <i>Galaxy of Comicalities</i> Philadelphia: Printed by Lesher & Shelly No. 303 Callowhill St. at $1.25 per annum in advance 1833. Twelve Issues: Volume 1: Nos. 1 – 12. These are twelve issues of only forty printed between October 2 1833 and July 5 1834. Galaxy of Comicalities is said to be the first illustrated comic periodical printed in America. Issue 11 December 11 1833 contains a review of <i>Sketches and Eccentricities of Colonel David Crockett of East </i>sic<i> Tennessee</i>. Crockett 1786 – 1836 a consummate self-promoter was the subject of numerous books. <i>Life and Adventures of Colonel David Crockett of West Tennessee</i> a spurious biography not authorized by Crockett was published in 1833 and reprinted later in the same year under the more accurate title of <i>Sketches and Eccentricities of Colonel David Crockett of West Tennessee</i>. <i>Galaxy of Comicalities</i> was a racist publication characteristic of humor during the Andrew Jackson administration. Mocking people of color during their "days off" writing in racial dialect and making sexist jokes about women this short-lived publication was intended for a semi-literate reader or listener sympathetic to the publishers' racist views. The editorial standard is as execrable as the spelling and views expressed. Illustrated with woodcuts of a similarly pejorative nature. </p><p>Condition of this rare worn and dis-bound surviving set: Issue 1 old repairs to page edges tear repair to page 1 slight text loss on p. 2; issue 2 repair to worn margins; issue 3 old tear repair to title-page margin repairs with text loss repair patch with text from another source p. 10; issue 4 margin repairs significant text loss; issue 5 good condition no repairs; issue 6 good condition no repairs; issue 7 text loss of a few words to three lines of one page; issue 8 good condition; issue 9 good condition; issue 10 margin repairs loss of few words on one page; issue 11 margin repairs text loss of a few letters on one page; issue 12 old tear repair.
