184617793Albany 1846. 22 1 1 blank pp. Caption title as issued. Printed in double columns disbound scattered foxing. Good. <br /> <br /> An examination of the surprising Whig triumph in the just-concluded New York State elections in five Letters. The author attributes the Whig sweep to a concerted effort by the Anti-Renters against Democratic Governor Silas Wright who had vigorously suppressed mobs who had engaged in "organized and armed resistance against the collection of rents" from leasehold estates in the Albany area. <br /> "Riotous and insurrectionary assemblages of armed men were almost daily witnessed and flagrant outrages upon persons and property were matters of common occurrence committed with entire impunity." Wright became their target in the 1846 elections. <br /> AI 46-6014 5. Sabin 70118 Albany Atlas Extra dated December 1846; printed says Sabin in 1847. Not in Eberstadt Decker. unknown

While the document is mostly printed there are six lines of hand written text describing the location of land involved with this transaction.</p>
1729100453Queens New York. Collection of Manuscripts documents relating to land purchases in Queens New York by John Morrell. New York: 1729 1741 1762 & 1796. Four large folio sheets one small folio sheets and two sheets with diagrams illustrating land purchases docketed. Aging and browning to group a little foxing or staining remnants of wax seals cloth tape repairs and one small archival tape repair along back of folds on some sheets a few chips and tears some folds in the margins. Overall about very good. Interesting group of documents that relate to land purchases by John Morrell who appears to be a blacksmith in 18th century Queens. The first document is dated 1729 and this appears to indicate he inherits a small plot of land from his father in Newtown which was in Queens County. Although it is not totally clear Morell may have been adopted by a Samuel Albertus . Newtown was originally founded by the Dutch in 1652 and called Middleburgh but became Newtown when the British took control of all the Dutch holdings in New York. In 1896 Newtown became Elmhurst. While these documents cover close to 70 years they suggest that Morell continued to make land purchases between 1729 and 1796 in Newtown. Most of these purchases were relatively modest but in 1762 he did buy some land for 359 pounds from a Samuel Moore. hardcover

195555725Erskine MN Warsaw NY & Wyoming NY: Erskine Manufacturing Valley Implement Inc. Clayton Carlson ca. 1955-1957. Oblong 4to. 37 leaves unnumbered. all mylar sleeves including 20 silver gelatin photographs sized 8 x 10 in. all preserved in mylar sleeves 1 w/ photographer’s studio stamp on verso 9 printed sales cards on thick paper stock blue lettering sized 8 x 10 in. 8 silver print reproductions of ALS & sales documents. Recent 3-ring binder lettering stamped on front cover NF. This counter display photo catalogue extolled the virtues and advantages of the Champion Berger Rotary Snow Plow developed and produced by Erskine Manufacturing of Minnesota. Founded in 1948 following World War II they were one of the first companies to pioneer and manufacture rotary snow blowers and plows for farm tractors and proved to be an immediate hit. These photos show the rear rotary snow plow fitted to all popular 25 horsepower or more tractors such as Farmall Allis Chalmers Case International Harvester and other tractors. They could be easily installed in minutes rather than hours for front snow plow implements were used with ease with any snow removal job avoided the common problems of more powerful front snow blowers such as bucking and breakage to both tractor & plow and could be easily controlled from the tractor seat. According to contemporary newspaper and trade magazine advertisements as well as the reproduced sales contracts in this group the cost typically ran from $ 300.00 to $ 325.00 for the Champion Berger and the testimonial letters to Valley Implement in upstate New York between Buffalo & Rochester rave about the performance. Carlson 1926-2019 first began as a photographer at 15 years of age and after photographing his first wedding in 1950 ran Carlson’s Studio for 40 years shooting across the surrounding Genesee Wyoming and Orleans Counties of New York.

19089883Brooklyn New York: The Pearl Press 375 Pearl Street 1908. Octavo 23.5 x 15.5 cm. 87 pages. Advertisements throughout. FIRST EDITION. An attractive community cookbook from the aptly named Westchester County hamlet of Pleasantville. It's unclear the connection between Pleasantville's St John's Guild and Peg Woffington. Margaret "Peg" Woffington was a popular 18th century English actress linked romantically to David Garrick. A tea house in Teddington UK with a two hundred fifty year history was established by Woffington but otherwise the connection seems tenuous. A few small stains on the front board of black and red printed cloth binding otherwise near fine. Scarce. OCLC shows four copies. The Pearl Press, 375 Pearl Street hardcover
