[Boston: Castle William] Massachusetts Magazine
A North View of Castle William in the Harbour of Boston.
Castle William's heritage as a military installation dates to 1634 when cannons first were deployed in an earthen fort to defend Boston Harbor. British officials used the fort as a refuge in the tumultuous times leading up to the American Revolution; on their way out of Boston in March 1776 the British destroyed the Fort. It was quickly rebuilt by Bostonians. <br /><br />The present view shows the rebuilt Fort with an oversized American flag waving above. The Fort served as an active military installation during the American Revolution the War of 1812 the Spanish-American War and World Wars I and II. Known as Fort Independence since 1797 the Fort today is a state park. <br /><br />Stauffer attributes the engraving to Samuel Hill who did many of the plates for the <i>Massachusetts Magazine</i>. Uncommon. <br /><br />References: Lewis: <i>A Guide to Engravings in American Magazines 1741-1810</i>: p. 10.

[BOSTON] A Citizen
An Appeal to the Good Sense of the Legislature and the Community in Favor of a New Bridge to South Boston
Boston: True and Greene 1825. First Edition. 22 pp complete with original wrappers but with the stitching perished so gatherings are loose. Pink staining to front wrapper edgewear otherwise very good. Scarce pamphlet criticizing monopolies in general and more specifically the factions who opposed a new toll-free bridge in Boston because it would be detrimental to the interests of those holding a charter and collecting tolls for the existing Charles River bridge. Moser's Daniel Webster bibliography attributes this eloquently written pamphlet to Massachusetts State Senator David Henshaw 1791-1852. We have not been able to confirm this but it seems reasonable given that he was one of the leaders of the Democratic Party in Boston belonged to a group of real estate investors who would benefit from population growth spurred by the proposed new bridge and "represented the growing group of Bostonians who were shut out from the traditionally privileged class" Haines and Sherwood Supreme Court in American Government and Politics p. 32. Daniel Webster was one of the attorney representing the interests of the Charles River Bridge Company which was incorporated in 1785. Ultimately in a landmark decision in favor of free enterprise Charles River Bridge v. Warren Bridge 1837 the Unites States Supreme Court ruled that the charter of the Charles River Bridge Company did not exclude the state of Massachusetts from chartering another bridge nearby.

[GLOBE BUFFER CO, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS]
GLOBE BUFFER CO. HEALTH & COMFORT. 25 TREMONT STREET BOSTON
Philadelphia: W.H. Butler n.d. ca 1885. 1885. TRADE CATALOG. 5 11/16" x 12 3/4" color sheet folded to 6 panels. Illustrations. Among the successful shoe-machines invented by the Globe Buffer company was the “Globe Buffer” a machine for “buffing” or sandpapering the bottoms of boots and shoes. The first “ Globe Buffer" was set up in November 1881. The company also manufactured the “Globe Heel Scourer” for smoothing or scouring the edges of heels of boots and shoes. The company also introduced the "Globe Insole" an invention the promised to replace the flexible leather that was currently in vogue for insoles to shoes. It was invented and patented by Mr. George A. Fullerton and consists of a substance very similar to leather but which is stronger and much more flexible. To test the merits the shoes thousands of pairs were produced and worn and in not a single pair of them did a stitch give out. The material for the insoles is stronger than any leather of the same thickness. It is preserved while leather is destroyed by perspiration. The edges are smooth which prevents them from cutting the stitches. Shoes made of it will not squeak. The brochure offers one cover panel showing 2 cherubs one holding a woman's boot and the other the "Globe Flexible Insole; one panel offering the company's guarantee; and one panel offering information about their insoles. "Remember that the INSOLE is the foundation of the shoe and that Glove Flexible Insole" is superior in every particular to leather or any other known substance. That the stitches and tacks are all beneath the surface thus contributing a smooth soft cushion." Opposite 3 panels offers a beautiful color sailing scene showing a yacht race and with "Compliments of the Globe Buffer co. only Manufacturers of Globe Flexible Insoles at the bottom of one panel. One panel has been separated and neatly reattached using cellophane tape. W.H. Butler, n.d. [ca 1885]. hardcover

[Massachusetts: Boston] Norman, John [engraver].
Plan of the Town of Boston.
<p>This extremely scarce map of Boston appeared as part of the <em>Geographical Gazetteer of the Towns in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts</em> a work issued in parts as a supplement to <em>The Boston Magazine</em> from October 1784 through December 1785. The map appeared with the October 1784 issue of <em>The Boston Magazine</em>.</p><p>Wheat & Brun note that this map is based largely on Norman's <strong>Plan of the Town of Boston with the Attack on Bunkers-Hill.</strong> published in the Boston edition of <em>An Impartial History of the War in America</em> in 1781. The present map covers a somewhat smaller geographic area and on a modestly larger scale than the map that appeared in <em>An Impartial History</em>. It also adds/eliminates/changes some street names and landmarks making it more than a direct re-engraving and suggesting the involvement of a cartographer -- perhaps Osgood Carleton with whom Norman collaborated on several maps and charts in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Norman's 1781 <strong>Plan</strong> was itself sourced directly from the map appearing in the English edition of <em>An Impartial History </em>1778.</p><p>Although the present map is not listed in the Boston Engineering Department's <em>List of Maps of Boston Published Subsequent to 1600</em> 1904 it is referenced in the listing for a 1789 version of the map that had apparently been re-engraved for Norman's <em>Boston Directory</em> 1789. Very scarce. No examples listed for sale in the <em>Antique Map Price Record </em>1983-2011 and we not aware of any other examples being offered in the past twenty years.</p><p>A lovely example of one of the most uncommon 18th century maps of Boston.</p><p><strong>References:</strong> Wheat & Brun <em>Maps and Charts Published in America before 1800</em>: 242. Jolly<em> Maps of America in Periodicals before 1800</em>: 402. Lewis: <em>A Guide to Engravings in American Magazines 1741-1810</em>: p. 3.

Mann had toured Europe with his new wife Mary Peabody and friend Samuel Gridley Howe and studied schools in eight countries with special interest in the Prussian school system. His 1844 annual report comparing American and European school systems was received with great offense by Boston schoolteachers. "A group of thirty-one schoolmasters. . . published a sharply worded critique of his seventh Annual Report" targeting "Mann's recommendations for teacher training as well as his opposition to corporal punishment." However this group "soon faced Mann's wrath in the form of written rejoinders" and were ultimately vanquished when "Mann's allies were elected to the Boston School Committee." <br /> <br /> Despite the controversy Mann's efforts to "merge the best that he found in European educational systems with the principles of the growing American common school movement" saw remarkable success. Under his direction the Board of Education spent over $2 million on improved school buildings increased teacher salaries by over 50% opened fifty new high schools commissioned uniform school textbooks from Boston publishers and alotted time for student exercise-shaping the public school system as we know it ANB. All the titles in this collection are uncommon in the book trade. unknown

Boston: B.B. Inc.; Ben-Burk Distillers 1934. Small folded pamphlet 11 x 6.5 cm. 16 pages when folded. Printed in red black and blue. FIRST EDITION. One of the very rare precursors to the famous Old Mr. Boston Bartender's Guide 1935. Following Repeal Ben-Burk Distillers published the Guide which was to become one of the iconic cocktail recipe books. Originally published as a promotional item for the Ben-Burk line of spirits distilled in Boston the Guide became a staple of professional and home bars around the country. But prior to the first work titled Old Mr. Boston Guide Ben-Burk published One Hundred Cocktails Some Old -- Some New 1932 and One Hundred and Twenty Cocktails Fizzes Punches Highballs Toddies and Long Drinks 1934 both of which are very rare. We can add this small work – previously unrecorded – to this short list of precursors. A bit of soiling to edges and one corner dog-eared; otherwise very good. All early printings of the Mr. Boston Guide are scarce. Unrecorded. OCLC records no copies; not in Noling or EUVS. B.B. Inc.; [Ben-Burk Distillers] unknown
