SPANISH AMERICAN WAR
Remember the Maine! A Collection of Photographs and Ephemera Relating to the Sinking of the Battleship Maine in 1898
On February 15 1898 a mysterious explosion destroyed the battleship USS Maine while it was anchored in Havana Harbor killing 260 men and helping to propel the United States into war with Spain. Although the cause of the explosion was unclear American newspapers were quick to allege that the ship had been brought down by a Spanish bomb. Led by William Randolph Hearst in the New York Journal and Joseph Pulitzer in the New York World the press demanded action. Hearst's headline "Remember the Maine!" became a rallying cry that helped turn American public opinion strongly in favor of war with Spain. By April President McKinley had given into to additional pressure from hawkish senators and his own vice-president Theodore Roosevelt and war was declared. Although brief the Spanish-American War had important consequences. It ended Spain's colonial empire in the Western Hemisphere and secured the position of the United States as a Pacific power. "U.S. victory in the war produced a peace treaty that compelled the Spanish to relinquish claims on Cuba and to cede sovereignty over Guam Puerto Rico and the Philippines to the United States. The United States also annexed the independent state of Hawaii during the conflict. Thus the war enabled the United States to establish its predominance in the Caribbean region and to pursue its strategic and economic interests in Asia" Office of the Historian U.S. State Department.<br/><br/>This collection consists of approximately 120 items including original photographs printed and real photo postcards stereoviews commemorative programs patriotic covers postal stamps calling cards song sheets lithographs and other ephemera showing the Maine as she appeared before the disaster the wreckage and salvage efforts the funeral service and burials of the victims first at Cristobal Colon Cemetery in Havana later at Arlington National Cemetery and some of the myriad ways in which the Maine was memorialized and mythologized in American popular culture. Original photographs and real photo postcards capture the ship and crew prior to the disaster crowds of sailors lined up to pay their respects to the victims the coffins being transported the cemetery dotted with freshly dug graves elaborate floral wreaths and memorials and salvage efforts in the immediate aftermath of the disaster and in 1911 when the ship was raised before being towed out to sea to its final resting place at the bottom of the ocean. The wide reach of the patriotic feelings aroused by the disaster can be seen in two cabinet cards of young children wearing U.S.S. Maine hats as well as on items that have no military or national connection e.g. a high school commencement program a blotter advertising corsets yet bear images of the Maine or the "Remember the Maine" slogan. On envelopes and stationery we see images of Uncle Sam punching a Spainiard an eagle dubbed "the New Bird in Havana Harbor" and troops walking toward a ship under the heading "On to Cuba." A mendicant uses the Maine as his theme on a card handed out to solicit alms; a song by a writer of sensational crime broadsides is reported to have been "composed and written during the indecision of the U.S. Government" and urges "Let's show all foreign powers Aye the haughty sons of Spain they will brook no insult like the Sinking of the Maine." A particularly unusual item is an envelope illustrated with an image of the remains of the ship captioned "WHO DID IT" containing illustrated sheets of tissue with instructions to blow them up via a small "fuse" on the back. In all an illuminating collection that helps demonstrate the impact of both the incident and how it captured the popular imagination -- such that many Americans still recognize the "Remeber the Maine!" rallying cry today even if they no longer know what it represents. unknown books

Spooner's Brooklyn Directory for the Year 1825.
<p>Small 8vo 6 3/4x4 1/4 original printed wrappers bound inside late 19th century quarter leather and cloth hinges reinforced map printed inside front cover of the original wrapper 67 pp. Scuffing and wear to leather rubbing and edge wear short tears to wrapper covers 1/2" chip to front cover margin which just about touches the map on the reverse side but doesn't really affect the image a few red pencil marks within some soiling staining and foxing ex Brooklyn Library copy bookplate on front pastedown perforated library stamp on title; still a good copy. A very scarce directory that probably began in the early 1820s. It continued to be published through 1829 but in 1830 it seems to have become The Brooklyn Directory although Spooner was still the publisher in that year. The first 48 pages appear to provide the "names and residence of all the Householders." The occupations of the people that are named are also provided. Additional information ranging from village by-laws to important members of the fire department is included. Spooner also provides a list of churches in Brooklyn and the results of the 1820 census for Kings County. The total population of Brooklyn in 1820 was 11183. This is a fairly rare title which offers a vivid picture about what Brooklyn looked like almost 200 years ago.</p> Alden Spooner, books

Spooner, Alden
Spooner's Brooklyn Directory for the Year 1825.
<p>Small 8vo 6 3/4x4 1/4 original printed wrappers bound inside late 19th century quarter leather and cloth hinges reinforced map printed inside front cover of the original wrapper 67 pp. Scuffing and wear to leather rubbing and edge wear short tears to wrapper covers 1/2" chip to front cover margin which just about touches the map on the reverse side but doesn't really affect the image a few red pencil marks within some soiling staining and foxing ex Brooklyn Library copy bookplate on front pastedown perforated library stamp on title; still a good copy. A very scarce directory that probably began in the early 1820s. It continued to be published through 1829 but in 1830 it seems to have become The Brooklyn Directory although Spooner was still the publisher in that year. The first 48 pages appear to provide the "names and residence of all the Householders." The occupations of the people that are named are also provided. Additional information ranging from village by-laws to important members of the fire department is included. Spooner also provides a list of churches in Brooklyn and the results of the 1820 census for Kings County. The total population of Brooklyn in 1820 was 11183. This is a fairly rare title which offers a vivid picture about what Brooklyn looked like almost 200 years ago.</p> Alden Spooner,
