This was the platform for the first national Presidential election 1856 with a Republican candidate John C. Frémont. A RARE publication in its own right Rare Book Hub notes last copy appearing in a dealer catalog in 1970. This copy rendered unique and historically significant by the original owner's addition of 78 blank pages which he mostly filled with pasted in contemporaneous newspaper clippings including 7 pp. of the Democratic Party Platform of 1856. Other significant clippings are headed: The Sanford Letter Wash. Aug. 21 1848 2 pp.; Kansas Affairs-Official Instructions to Gov. Geary and Gen. Smith Wash. Sept.3 1856; Kansas Slave Code 4 pp.; Who Are the Disunionists ; 4th of July Toasts in South Carolina: The White Man Shall Be a Slave If a Laborer: Slaves Horses and other Cattle a Sale by J.B. Sproull & Co. 1855; and The Buchanan Democracy Hate Freedom. Overall approximately 40 newspaper clippings pasted in with some marginal writings and notations in ink in the handwriting of the original owner who although unnamed appears to have resided in Greene Co. OH and was most definitely a Republican ! Very Good bound in sewn brown leather 78 blank pp. with contemporary newspaper articles pasted onto most of the blank pages; the Republican Party Platform 36 pp.; Declaration and Constitution 32 PP. Whenever any other copy of the 1856 Platform comes to market it is unlikely to be as intriguing to historians and collectors as this copy. John P. Jewett & Co. Hardcover

Approximately 500 pages. The first 204 pages consist entirely of a trove of 73 fascimile reprints of classified American documents, some or all of which we assume were captured by Iranian students when they overran the American embassy in Teheran at the onset of the Iranian hostage crisis. Titles of these documents include: Planning for the Shah to Come to the U.S.; Goals and Objectives in Iran; Iranian Revolution a CIA Plot; Ali Reza Farahmand; Conversation with the Mayor of Abadan; Mehdi Rowghani; Meeting with Radical Movement Leader Moghadam Maragheie; Country Plan Proposal. Balance of text is in a different language, presumably Farsi. English portion undated but probably printed circa 1980. Includes four pages of color photos of the contents of what appears to be the passport of one Thomas Leo Ahern, Jr. Unmarked with average wear. Presumably an expose of America's clandestine foreign policy affecting Iran in the late 1970s. Book

Debates and proceedings of the Republican and Democratic wings of the convention to make Minnesota's state constitution. A tempestuous battle had ensued over which party would control the convention as that party would dictate the provisions of the constitution and so arrange the formation of congressional and legislative districts that Senators and Representatives in Congress would be of that party's faith. The political control of Congress might depend on the outcome in the new state of Minnesota and so the whole country became interested in the election of delegates to Minnesota's Constitutional Convention. Agreement between the parties could not be reached and thus two separate conventions were convened. "The two conventions met daily. Their proceedings were uniformly orderly dignified and most interesting. Various important measures far reaching and influential in their character and nature were proposed in each convention and some of them adopted. In a few weeks after the rival conventions assembled the better judgement sound sense and devotion to the interests of the people among the members generally asserted themselves." Private conferences were held and at last Democratic leaders conferred with leading Republicans and on the 28th of August 1857 agreement was reached upon the entire draft of the constitution the printed version of which appears at the back of each volume and in the case of the Democratic Proceedings may be the earliest appearance of the constitution in print see Minnesota in Three Centuries 1908 III 42-48. <br/><br/> E.S.
