180711915Philadelphia 1807. 86pp bound in attractive modern plain wrappers. Tanned scattered fox Good. <br/><br/> Dedicated "To Those Members of Congress Who Have the Sense to Perceive and the Spirit to Pursue the True Interests of their Country" the pamphlet attacks English invasions of American sovereignty. Referring to the British ship Leopard's assault on the Chesapeake the author says that "The attempt to search a public ship of war appears to us unjustifiable; and more especially so on our own coast." The author predicts correctly that the British would offer reparations and thus avoid war over the incident; and offers unflattering opinions on Jefferson-- "a schemer perpetually occupied with some strange out-of-the-way project"-- and Madison "a man of feeble mind." <br/>FIRST EDITION.

Image measures 28" x 21 1/2"<br/><br/> This original World War I-era poster published by the Liberty Loan Committee of New England advertises free storage for liberty bonds and discourages bond owners from selling or exchanging their bonds. Text reads "Owners with small amount of Liberty Bonds with no safe place to keep them should go to any bank trust company or safety deposit company. Where possible they will store them without charge. Beware of Speculators. Pay no attention to advertisement offering to buy Liberty Bonds. You bought them to uphold the Government during the greatest test it has ever had. When you sell your bonds you are a quitter! Do not exchange your bonds for any other bond or stock. There is no security better than Liberty Bonds. If kept until they mature they will be paid in full." Includes an illustration of a sun with eyes rising over the mountains and the caption "Save to buy and buy to keep! to-day buy that liberty bond". War loan posters like this one were produced in great volume during the First World War to encourage people to support the war effort financially.
