‎*** LARGESIZE ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM OF THE LUXURIOUS INTERIOR DESIGN OF THE RECONSTRUCTED CRUISESHIP, most likely edited on the occasion of its re-construction in 1952/53: The owner of Sitmar Ships, russian exilant and ship-owner Alexander Vlasov operated cargo ships registered under either Greek, Italian or United Kingdom flags before and during the Second World War. SITMAR ships carried a letter 'V' on their funnels, for 'Vlasov'. After the war, Vlasov purchased the former American troop ships 'Wooster Victory' and 'Vassar Victory', chartering them to the International Refugee Organisation (IRO). Wooster Victory first operated under its original name then was renamed Castelverde, while Vassar Victory was immediately renamed Castelbianco. Both vessels were Italian-registered. After the IRO charter contracts for postwar refugees-transports from Europe to Australia ended in 1952, Castelbianco and Castelverde were extensively rebuilt and used to carry emigrants, initially from Europe to Central America, later from Europe to Australia. This service ended in 1957 and both vessels were sold to the Spanish Line 'Compania Transatlantica Espanola S.A.' and renamed to 'S.S. Montserrat' resp. 'S.S. Begona'.

‎SLAVE TRADE‎

‎An Act to regulate for a limited Time The shipping and carrying Slaves in British Vessels from the Coast of Africa.‎

‎London: Printed by Charles Eyre and Andrew Strahan 1787 i.e. 1788. Among the earliest Parliamentary responses to the British slave trade First edition of the first British law to regulate slave shipping preserved in its original volume of yearly parliamentary acts. The law bound 54th in this volume pioneered techniques of popular abolitionist appeal. The Slave Trade Act 1788 limited the number of enslaved persons that could be transported on British ships. It also required that all ships carried a doctor to monitor the conditions of the enslaved persons. The Act was supported through Parliament by Sir William Dolben 1727-1814 and Charles Stanhope 1753-1816. LoGerfo notes of their campaign that "the machinery used to appeal to the literate public would also be used in the future" p. 450. This volume collects 57 acts passed by the 16th Parliament of Great Britain which met from November 1787 to July 1788 and was led by Pitt the Younger. Like all Parliamentary statutes of this period the Slave Trade Act was separately printed with a general title page for inclusion in the yearly volumes of acts. Most of these statutes were printed with their own title pages included in the signatures and pagination - here all such pages have been removed. These laws were printed in limited numbers usually estimated at around 1100 copies only. The volume includes laws against chimney sweeps and child labour and measures to compensate dispossessed American loyalists in the years after the Revolution. Folio 304 x 191 mm pp. 1012 = 900 title pages of individual acts removed. Woodcut device to title page woodcut head- tailpieces and initials to contents. Contemporary quarter sheep spine lettered and with black morocco label in gilt marbled paper sides. Bumping and wear minor loss to spine ends joints cracked but holding firm slight browning and foxing to endpapers and contents slight marking to edges: a good copy.

‎New York 1796. Single page 9-1/2" x 15-3/4" entirely in manuscript. Headed with names of three cases pending in the New York District Court followed by Harison's letter to Rawle. Old folds with a pinhole at a fold intersection no text loss. Short fold split expertly repaired. Very Good.<br/><br/> Harison 1747-1829 was President Washington's appointee in 1789 as the first United States Attorney for the District of New York. He served until 1801 when Edward Livingston succeeded him. His correspondent William Rawle was Washington's appointee as U.S. Attorney for Pennsylvania. Rawle was founder and first president of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania president of the Pennsylvania Abolition Society and a highly respected writer on governmental matters.<br/> The Slave Trade Act of 1794 passed by the Third Congress and signed by President Washington was the first American regulation of the international slave trade. It prohibited Americans from trading in slaves to any foreign country. Harison had brought several cases under the Act as noted in this Letter: The United States vs. The Brigantine Active; and two by George Geer for himself and the USA vs. Elisha King. Harison explains "The above Suits were commenced upon the Act prohibiting American Citizens from carrying on the Slave Trade in foreign Countries." <br/> Harison's problem: "The principal witness is supposed to have been prevailed upon by undue Methods to quit this District is thought to be either in Philadelphia or Baltimore." If he's in Philadelphia "I will esteem it a Favor if you will take every regular Method of procuring his Testimony." If he's in Baltimore please "recommend the Business to the Attorney for the District of Maryland. The Public is in every Point of View interested in the Event." Diligent research has uncovered no additional information on these cases. unknown books‎
