Description:
Philadelphia: J. Maxwell, 1811. Illustrated broadside (23" x 17.5"), copper-plate engraving above text, engraving size, 10.5" x 5". A broadside published a little over a decade after General George Washington's death, featuring a fine emblematic engraving and text extolling Washington's virtuous character. Consisting of a lively scene within a border adorned with swags, the engraving allegorizes Washington as a great rock in the sea, standing firm amid crashing waves and a stormy sky with a streak of lightning in the background. The text praises Washington's "rare endowments": his even-keeled temperament; consummate prudence; disinterested conduct; the powers of his mind; the dispositions of his heart, and so forth. Also addressed is the intertwinement of his life and the development of America, and the American Revolution: Washington, placed in circumstances of the most trying difficulty at the commencement of the American contest, accepted that situation which was preeminent in danger and…

Description:
Philadelphia: Henry Carey Baird, 1863. 12mo (21.5 cm), self-wrappers. 8 pp. A pamphlet advocating for the enlistment of African-Americans in the Union army during the Civil War, citing historical precedent and addressing the bias against their service. This pamphlet opens urgently with the following pronouncement: "We are in the midst of a great war for the existence of free institutions. No one can be so blind as not to see that the triumph of the Confederacy would insure the overthrow of rational liberty." Note is made of the 4 million blacks currently holed up in the Rebel States, whom-it is argued here-"would gladly aid us in the war we are carrying on." Acknowledging the strong prejudice in the North against employing blacks as soldiers, the author presents various extracts from America's "wisest and best men"-such as Washington and Jackson-who "did not hesitate to solicit, to employ, and to reward the military services of Negroes in the War of the Revolution, and again, within the memory of…

Yellowstone National Park, [ca. 1885]. Albumen print photograph, 6.5" x 8.25" on 11.625" x 15.9" green paperboard mount. Haynes Inventory Number 2665. An impressive image of Yellowstone Park's Giant Geyser, with a burst of steam surrounded by mud and snow. F. Jay Haynes (1853-1921), nicknamed the Professor, was the official Yellowstone photographer from 1884-1921 and took the first known winter photographs of Yellowstone Park in 1887 on a 29-day, 200 mile epic journey to the Lower and Upper Geyser basins and Yellowstone Falls. Prior to this, Haynes had been the official photographer for the Northern Pacific Railroad after purchasing a train car for a photo studio and trading publicity photos for the pulling of his car. Haynes sold his photos at Yellowstone and published in books and journals. In 1897, when the Post Office started mailing "penny postals," Haynes and his son Jack produced postcards for the tourists which further spread the word of Yellowstone's natural wonders throughout the U. S. and…
