Wilmington: R. France & Co, 1861. Broadside. 7 3/4" x 19. Fine condition. One horizontal crease from being folded in half along the vertical dimension.. A fantastic 1861 promotional handbill for a lottery to augment public finance. The Consolidated Lottery of Delaware was authorized by the legislature in January, 1859 as an act for the encouragement of internal improvements in the State of Delaware. This advertises Class 91 of the consolidated lottery, managed by R. France & Co. with E. N. Carr & Co. as agents. <br /> <br /> The "Brilliant Scheme" as it is described, offers 76,076 tickets at $8 apiece, and promises to pay out 30,316 prizes totaling $365,678--the highest prize being $24,562. <br /> <br /> Lotteries have a rich history in America as means to supplement government revenues, though as games of chance tending to sever the connection between wealth and work they were always viewed with moral suspicion. In fact by 1860, thirty of the then…

Description:
New York, 1895. Single sheet, 8" x 9 7/8", folded once. Very good. Letter has a few old folds, a slight separation along the bottom 3/4" of the central fold, and four spots of old adhesive residue on blank back side.. Suffragist pioneer Elizabeth Cady Stanton here writes to a Mrs. Thomas, one of the 26 women on the "Revising Committee" who, along with Stanton, wrote "The Woman's Bible." The letter is dated October 20, from Stanton's address at 26 West 61st Street in New York City. She advises Mrs. Thomas that she is asking the committee members each to order 20 copies of Part I, set to be published the following month. <br /> <br /> "The Woman's Bible" was meant to be a new version of the Christian Bible, but with women treated and portrayed as equals with men rather than the subservient role found in religious orthodoxy. It was crafted in two parts, with Part I being published in November, 1895 and Part II, finally, in April,…

The courtroom proceedings as a Black man is charged with bastardy in New York at the beginning of the 19th century. Alexander Whistelo was claimed by the mother herself to be the father of her female bastard child, which she had left in the care of the New York City Alms House. The municipality then sought compensation from Whistelo for the ongoing care of the child "under the act passed 6th March, 1801, for the relief of cities and towns from the maintenance of bastard children." Whistelo denied being the father and this trial before Mayor, Recorder, and Several Aldermen of New York resulted.<br /> <br /> The mother, one Lucy Williams, was a mulatto, and ultimately the evidence failed to convince…

Dyer was the chaplain at the Albany Penitentiary. His memorial sermon, given in the prison's chapel, coincided with Lincoln's funeral in Washington on April 19th. He finds the circumstances of Lincoln's death to be "of a painfully instructive character" for the nation, and lays out what he believes God "would have us learn from this event." <br /> <br /> Only 600 copies of this sermon were printed, according to early Lincolniana collector and bibliographer Daniel Fish.<br /> <br /> The Albany Penitentiary at this time housed many inmates from Washington, DC, as the prison there had been taken over for the U. S. Arsenal in 1862. Indeed four convicted Lincoln…

A copy that apparently was never bound, but whose signatures are tied together in three places along spine with sturdy thread. Moderate soil to external leaves, a few edge chips to untrimmed fore and bottom edges.. This is a strong Jeffersonian-Republican argument against the Jay Treaty, then before Congress. The treaty was designed by Alexander Hamilton, negotiated by Chief Justice John Jay, and supported by President Washington. The purpose was to resolve certain issues between the United States and Great Britain which had been left outstanding since the end of the American Revolutionary War.<br /> <br /> Jeffersonian Republicans were staunchly opposed to the treaty, and the fierce debate--of which this pamphlet is a part--caused such deep divisions that it cemented the American political party system. Even President Washington came under attack for his support of…

New Haven: Connecticut Branch, W. O. N. P. R., 1933. Broadside. 7" x 10 1/4. Single sheet printed on one side. Slight age toning. Fine condition.. This is an original handbill from a major women's group soliciting votes to repeal Prohibition in 1933.<br /> <br /> Women's organizations--particularly the Women's Christian Temperance Union--are strongly associated with passage of the 18th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution and the national ban on alcoholic beverages it brought in 1919. The major role women played in getting Prohibition repealed is not as widely recognized, however.<br /> <br /> This handbill was issued by the Connecticut Branch of the Women's Organization for National Prohibition Reform (W.O.N.P.R.). The W.O.N.P.R. was organized in 1929 by women who could no longer ignore the destructive (if unintended) consequences of Prohibition. <br /> <br /> Here voters are asked to vote for ratification of the 21st Amendment, reminding them…
