‎THE JEWISH DP PROBLEM: ITS ORIGIN SCOPE AND LIQUIDATION‎

‎New York: Institute of Jewish Affairs World Jewish Congress 1951. 1st edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo 43 pages. <br> “No single phenomenon of the postwar period except the struggle for the Jewish Homeland and its miraculous survival in the face of Arab intransigence has proven at once so tragic and so inspiring as that of the more than two hundred thousand Jews from various countries who at one time or another sojourned in camps and towns in Germany Austria and Italy while waiting for new homes and a new life in freedom. For years the two letters ‘DP’ figured prominently on the pages of Jewish publications were a daily topic of conversation the concern of Jewish philanthropy and the preoccupation of all major Jewish organizations the world over. It is for these reasons that the Institute of Jewish Affairs decided to relate the story of the Jewish DPs in the present study…. <br> The purpose of this brochure is to summarize the unique experience in Jewish history which the DPs represented and to give a brief account of what their problem was like and how and by what means it was solved. The full story of the Jewish DPs of course has yet to be written.†from foreword. <br> SUBJECTS: Jewish refugees. Jews -- Europe. World War 1939-1945. <br> OCLC: 21664940. <br> Very Good Condition.

Compare his policy with McClellan's expression of readiness to receive any State when its people offer to submit to the Union.</i>"</p><p>This Democratic Party campaign pamphlet quotes an April 1864 letter to argue that Lincoln gave Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant free rein to conduct the war after having interfered with and micromanaged McClellan's Peninsula Campaign in 1862. The publication also declared that Republicans were stained with "<i>The Taint of Disunion</i>" and quoted from Republican speeches and editorials to insist that the Democrats were the party of "<i>UNION AND PEACE</i>."</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN.</b>Printed Document.

They reflect so severely upon the President that no attempt to gloss them over by his apparent subsequent repentance can disabuse the patriotic portion of the nation of the matured conviction that he is to be held responsible for the lack of decisive victories in Eastern Virginia.

McClellan. Although McClellan had been the commander of the Army of the Potomac and general-in-chief of the Union Army the Peace platform adopted by the Democratic National Convention in Chicago declared the war a failure. The party was bitterly divided between War Democrats who favored continuing the war to restore the Union while leaving slavery alone; moderate Peace Democrats who favored an armistice and a negotiated peace that would likely protect slavery in a reconstructed union and radical Peace Democrats who favored an immediate end to the war without securing Union victory. McClellan was a War Democrat but the platform was written by radical Peace Democrat Clement Vallandigham and Peace Democrat George H. Pendleton was nominated for vice president.</p><p>In 1864 Republicans created the National Union Party to attract War Democrats Unconditional Unionists and Unionist Party members who would not vote for the Republican Party though most state Republican parties did not change their name. President Abraham Lincoln won the nomination of the "National Union Party" at its Baltimore convention and won re-election with new running mate War Democrat Andrew Johnson.</p><p>Although Lincoln was convinced by August 1864 that he would not be reelected General William T. Sherman's capture of Atlanta in early September and General Philip Sheridan's successes in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia from August to October ensured his victory. Without the participation of the seceded states Lincoln and Johnson won 55 percent of the popular vote and an overwhelming 212-to-21 victory in the Electoral College. McClellan and Pendleton carried only Kentucky Delaware and McClellan's home state of New Jersey.</p>‎

‎New York: Harper's Weekly 1865. 16 pages. Large folio 16 inches by 11 1/4 inches. Original complete issue of Harper's Weekly. Harper's Weekly was the most important American pictorial newspaper in the 19th century. Because the original wood engravings in virtually every issue are highly collectible complete issues are becoming more difficult to obtain. The issue offered here focuses on the events following the assassination of Lincoln. On the front page are articles on the assassination and the funeral along with three original wood engravings: one showing the ruins of the Garrett barn where John Wilkes Booth was shot; another showing the house where Booth died; and a third engraving of the house of Booth's co-conspirator David Herold. On the interior are multiple engravings of various Lincoln funeral sites. Among the unrelated engravings is the double-page centerfold by Thomas Nast entitled "Palm Sunday"--one side portraying the arrival of Jesus in Jerusalem and the other side Lee surrendering to Grant. This issue of Harper's Weekly is disbound from an annual volume and has the usual sewing holes along the binding edge but it is still in very good condition: clean and bright with minimal toning of the paper.

The image created by engraver Henry B.

Grant who stands nearby.</p><p>According to a notice printed at the bottom right corner "<i>Every Person who pays Ten Cents each for numbers 1 and 2 of Frank Leslie's Chimney Corner The New Family Paper is entitled to a copy of this PLATE without extra charge</i>" or individuals could purchase the print for $3.</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN.</b>Lithograph.

It is especially valuable as it contains an excellent likeness of our late lamented President introducing General Grant and his wife to Mrs. Lincoln." The picture contains "nearly 100 portraits of our most celebrated Generals Statesmen and Civilians also of many of our most distinguished American ladies. The likenesses are admirable having been taken from photographs by Brady."</p><p>The key giving the names of each individual portrait was published in issue number 4 of the <i>Chimney Corner</i> on June 24.</p><p>Included in the image are Generals Ulysses S.

‎[ABRAHAM LINCOLN]. [RACISM]‎

‎Miscegenation or the Millennium of Abolitionism - Stirring Fear of Interracial Marriage Before 1864 Presidential Election‎

‎<p>The second in a series of four racist political cartoons published in 1864 by Bromley & Company which was closely affiliated with the Copperhead New York <i>World</i> newspaper. These prints sought to undermine Abraham Lincoln's chances for reelection by branding him as a "miscegenationist" and playing on white fears of "race-mixing." The cartoon scene pictures several interracial couples enjoying a day at the park eating ice cream discussing wedding plans and a woman's upcoming lecture. Two African American families have white employees a carriage driver and footmen and a babysitter.</p><p>The only other example traced at auction brought $7800 in 2010.</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. RACISM.</b>Print. "Miscegenation or the Millennium of Abolitionism." Political Cartoon. New York: Bromley & Co. 1864. 1 p. 20¾ x 13â… in.<p><br /></p><p>American politics had long played on fears of sexual relationships between races. A powerful new word for "race-mixing" was coined in an anonymous December 1863 pamphlet entitled <i>Miscegenation: The Theory of the Blending of the Races Applied to the American White Man and Negro</i> published in New York. Purporting to advocate the virtues of the "blending of the white and black races on this continent" it was a literary forgery prepared by <i>The World</i> managing editor David Goodman Croly and reporter George Wakeman. The authors were unsuccessful in their attempt to trick President Lincoln into endorsing the work.</p><p>At the far left of the image Abraham Lincoln declares "<i>I shall be proud to number among my intimate friends any member of the Squash family especially the little Squashes.</i>" The African American woman to whom he is speaking replies "<i>I'se 'quainted wid Missus Linkum I is washed far her 'fore de hebenly Miscegenation times was cum. Dont do nuffin now but gallevant 'round wid de white gem'men! he-ah! he-ah! he-ah!</i>"</p><p>Senator Charles Sumner says "<i>Mr. President! Allow me the honor of introducing my very dear friend Miss Dinah Arabella Aramintha Squash.</i>" A white carriage driver complains in the background "<i>Gla-a-ang there 240t! White driver white footmen niggers inside my heys! I wanted a situation when I took this one</i>" while a black man in the carriage tells his companion "<i>Phillis de_ah dars Sumner. We must not cut him if he is walking.</i>" A black woman at a table tells a white man with her "<i>Ah! Horace its-its-its-bully 'specially de cream</i>" and he replies "<i>Ah! my dear Miss Snowball we have at last reached our political and social Paradise. Isn't it extatic</i>"</p><p>To the right are two couples embracing each a white woman and an African American man. The first white women tells her partner "<i>Oh! You dear creature. I am so agitated! Go and ask Pa</i>" to which he replies "<i>Lubly Julia Anna name de day when Brodder Beecher shall make us one!</i>" The second white woman says "<i>Adolphus now you'll be sure to come to my lecture to morrow night won't you</i>" to which he answers "<i>I'll be there Honey on de front seat sure!</i>" In the background are various immigrant minorities viewing the scene. One exclaims "<i>Most hextwadinary! Aw neva witnessed the like in all me life if I did dem me!</i>" and another adds "<i>Mine Got vat a guntry vat a beebles!</i>" An Irish girl complains "<i>And is it to drag nagur babies that I left old Ireland Bad luck to me.</i>"</p><p>Manton Marble the editor of <i>The World</i> collaborated with printmaker Bromley & Company to issue a series of four anti-Lincoln "Political Caricatures." The present example was the No. 2 in that series. No. 1 was "The Grave of the Union or Major Jack Downing's Dream"; No. 3 "The Abolition Catastrophe Or the November Smash-up"; and No. 4 "The Miscegenation Ball."</p><p>Republicans responded by trying to turn the "miscegenation" charge against the Democrats. A Republican print "The Political "Siamese" Twins: The Offspring of Chicago Miscegenation" pictures McClellan and Pendleton joined together despite their very different ideas on ending the war.</p><p>Although Abraham Lincoln won New York states' electoral votes in 1860 Stephen Douglas had carried New York City and its environs. Financial elites fearing that civil war would ruin business and recent immigrants fearing competition with free black labor supported Douglas. Lincoln's unpopularity in New York City during the Civil War was a factor in the deadly 1863 Draft Riots.</p><p>In 1864 Lincoln again won the states' electoral votes while New York City favored his Democratic opponent McClellan. In fact Lincoln's majority dropped from 50136 votes in 1860 to only 7373 votes in 1864 with approximately 50000 more total votes cast than in 1860.</p><p>Bromley and Company continued to sell the caricatures after the election as this January 1865 advertisement from an Ohio newspaper makes clear. Another advertisement assured purchasers that the set of four prints available for $1 were "sent on wooden rollers to insure safe carriage."</p><p><b><i>The World</i></b> 1860-1931 a daily independent newspaper was published in New York City. Alexander Cummings founded it as a religious Republican outlet in 1860. August Belmont and others purchased it in 1862 changing the editorial focus. With editor Manton Marble 1834-1917 <i>The World</i> soon became the country's leading Democratic newspaper. In 1864 Union authorities shut down <i>The World</i>and another paper for three days after they published forged documents purportedly written by Lincoln that were really part of a hoax to manipulate the price of gold. The paper actively supported George B. McClellan against Lincoln in 1864.</p><p><b>Condition</b></p><p>Fine for exhibit despite flaws.

New York: Currier & Ives 1860. Lithograph broadside 18 x 13-1/2 inches.</p><p>This scarce and iconic lithograph is a detailed humorous "parody on the field of presidential candidates and their supporters in the 1860 campaign." Bell and Everett for the Constitutional Union Party are there: Bell a muscle man holds Everett aloft on a barbell. Horace Greeley struggles to do a pull-up in his effort to gain the New York governorship while Lincoln is easily astride his own bar wooden rails offering helpful advice: "You must do as I did Greely get somebody to give you a boost. I'm sure I never could have got up here by my own efforts." The New York Courier's James Watson Webb does a backward somersault in the foreground.</p><p>The broadside evidently issued after the parties' nominating Conventions because Seward is depicted as a cripple "on crutches and with bandaged feet."

‎Tomb of Abraham Lincoln at Springfield Ill. Guarded by Vet. Res. Corps 1865. caption title‎

‎<p>Springfield Illinois 1865. Photographic image: 7½ x 9 inches on mount with handwritten caption. Period deep-set walnut and gilt frame glazed 9¾ x 11¼ inches overall. Evenly-lightened with the image likely taken on a bright sunlit day.</p> <p>Unpublished and previously unknown. A rare photographic print created from a large format albumen photograph taken in 1865. The image captures Lincoln’s tomb being guarded by the Veteran Reserve Corps. The Reserve Corps were active from May to November 1865 helping to date when this image was first taken.</p> <p>As President Lincoln’s funeral train wended its way from Washington D.C. to Springfield “non-commissioned officers of the Veteran Reserve Corps were detailed to act as a body-guard and major generals of the army were directed to attend the train and keep watch so that at all times during the journey the coffin should be under their special guardianship.†Isaac N. Arnold</p> <p>The majority of photographs of Lincoln’s tomb taken in Springfield in 1865 were captured by two local photographers Ingmire and Tresize. They had a thriving business photographing various delegations in front of the Lincoln home and at the receiving tomb. Jonathan H. Mann</p> <p>Over the past two decades new examples of these tomb photographs have emerged suggesting that many individuals involved in the procession including honor guards made a pilgrimage and posed for the camera. Most of these images are found in carte-de-visite format. Larger formats like the present print hold greater significance and desirability. While the members of the Reserve Corps in this image may remain anonymous there are four individuals of higher rank depicted on the opposite side of the vault door who might be identifiable with closer examination. ibid</p> unknown‎

‎[AFRICAN-AMERICANA] LINCOLN, Abraham‎

‎THIRTEENTH AMENDMENT. JOINT RESOLUTION OF THE THIRTY EIGHTH CONGRESS . PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION . ABOLISHING SLAVERY. RESOLVED‎

‎Chicago: Western Bank Note & Engraving Co. 1868. First Edition. Document. Recently backed with thin paper with several professional repairs of chips and tears. Very Good . Large folio 16-1/4" x 21-3/4" finely engraved and printed on good quality paper with elaborate decorative borders with a "US" monogram to upper corners a bold calligraphic heading with "ABOLISHING SLAVERY" in prominent decorated letters; at top center is a small vignette of the pyramid and all-seeing eye above an oval vignette of a slave family with child mourning over a cameo portrait of Lincoln. This is followed by the engraved signatures of President Lincoln Vice President Hamlin Schuyler Colfax and J. W. Forney Speaker and Secretary of the Senate and 164 Senators and Congressmen. An exceedingly rare and beautiful printing of the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude . Shall exist within the United States." This elaborately engraved Reconstruction-era broadside is based on the special "souvenir" copies on parchment signed by Lincoln and the others of which only a handful are known to have been made. The Thirteenth Amendment represents the first substantive change to how America interpreted those liberties guaranteed by the Bill of Rights since its ratification in 1791. The Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the openly rebellious states. The Amendment effectively put an end to slavery once and for all upon its passage on 1 February 1865. <br/><br/> Western Bank Note & Engraving Co. unknown‎

‎[AMSTERDAM]. [RADEMAKER, Abraham?].‎

‎'t Huis Kostverlooren.‎

‎Netherlands 1740. Mounted in passepartout. A view in brown ink with light and dark grey watercolour washes on laid paper 16.5 x 21.5 cm with a manuscript caption at the head. Attractive view in brown ink with grey washes of the picturesque Kostverloren manor on the Amstel River just outside Amsterdam. The manor was originally built at the end of the 15th century. In 1650 it was severely damaged by fire but it was soon restored. In 1822 Kostverloren was razed. The manor was famously depicted by Rembrandt Ruisdael and also by Abraham Rademaker 1676/77-1735 one of the most important topographic artists of his day. Rademaker’s drawing closely matches the present view in style and shows the exact same scene from the trees on the left to the smaller house on the right. The only difference is the season: the trees depicted here are much fuller.Slightly foxed but otherwise in good condition.l Cf. Blokland & Dumas de kasteeltekeningen van Abraham Rademaker C58. unknown‎
