You Be the Judge!; America be the Jury: Come to an Open hearing on The Case of the Michigan Students. .
Ann Arbor: Civil Rights Federation 1940. First edition. Neatly folded twice horizontally; fine. Two-sided broadsheet approx. 8-1/2 X 11 inches printed on both sides. Announcement of the "Open Hearing" held on behalf of thirteen expelled students with a graphic image of a judge on the recto and a length text along with lists of participants and sponsors on the rear. Following a peace rally in April 1940 University President Alexander G. Ruthven fearing fifth-column Communist organizing on campus expelled the students mostly members of the left-wing American Student Union. The case drew national attention at a time when the country was deeply divided over the war in Europe. At this culminating event in November a range of speakers including representatives of the Civil Rights Federation labor unions professors and activists denounced Ruthven and defended the students' first amendment rights. In the end however the students remained expelled and a year later the U.S. was in the war. Civil Rights Federation unknown

1849 – Letter regarding the private purchase of public lands in Michigan
1849 – Letter regarding the private purchase of public lands in Michigan
Envelope or Cover. Very good. This one-page stampless folded letter was sent by C. B. Young of Detroit to the Michigan Auditor General in Lansing. It is datelined “Nov 25 1849.†It bears a circular Detroit postmark “Paid†handstamp and “5†rate mark all in red.<br /> <br /> The letter forwarded $3.00 to purchase public land in Ionia County from the sale of 1847. From the time of the Land Ordinance of 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 Michigan was a public land territory and state. This meant that the federal government was responsible for disposing of all the state’s land except for a small number of private claims. Various American Indian groups could also claim sovereignty of the land as well.<br /> <br /> Although privatization was a success it was also deeply flawed. The state government took a special interest in the process for a number of reasons including quieting Native American unrest over claims surveying and platting state-claimed land reviewing the federal and state administrators responsible for processing the claims analyzing the privatization policies controlling speculation and determining privatization’s effect on settlements. <br /> <br /> This letter is likely related to the general privatization process and not the resale of military bounty land or land sold to recoup delinquent taxes.<br /> For more information see Mitchell’s “Towards a History of Privatizing Public Lands in Michigan 1785 1860†in Fall 2008 edition of the Michigan Academician. unknown

Little Known History of.the Negro caption title
Detroit 1956. Very good. Large-format pictorial wall calendar on twelve sheets each sheet measuring 19.5 x 13.5 inches bound at top with a strip of black plastic. Minor wrinkling and staining small hole in the last leaf costing a bit of one illustration. An interesting and ephemeral wall calendar created in 1956 as a promotional for the Detroit Metropolitan Mutual Assurance Company an African-American-owned life insurance company. The copyright notice is dated in that year and claimed by Charles C. Diggs Sr. the founder and president of DMMAC. The calendar features notable African descendants from America and around the world. The first month repeats the old Southern white claim that Hannibal Hamlin Lincoln's first Vice President was an African American. Hamlin is identified here as "Negro Vice-President of the United States." Other months are devoted to a variety of subjects such as Ida Wells Barnett Reverend Patrick Francis Healy two local civil rights leaders in Detroit - Francis M. Dent and Willis M. Graves Fulgencio Batista "Cuba's Negro President" "Three African Popes" and Queen Charlotte Sophia of England "Negro Ancestor of Present Day Royalty" among others.<br /> <br /> The individual days of the calendar throughout the year are populated with facts regarding major moments in the history of the African American experience i.e. January 1 - "New Year's Day - 863 Negro slavery abolished by law." January 5 reads "1943 Dr. George W. Carver scientist died at Tuskegee Institute. Carver Day established by act of Congress." Charles C. Diggs was an important African American political and business leader in greater Detroit. Over the course of his career he operated a funeral home helped found a cemetery for Black people and created the DMMAC to provide life insurance to African Americans shut out of traditional insurance opportunities through discrimination. Diggs became active politically as well becoming the first African American Democrat elected to the Michigan Senate in 1936. He worked for civil rights from within the system passing his signature legislation in 1937 known as the "Diggs Law" which punished discrimination based on race color or creed as a misdemeanor. Diggs' son Charles Jr. became the first Black man from Michigan to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives.<br /> <br /> No copies of the present version in OCLC with only one copy of the previous year's calendar at the University of Kansas. unknown

Flint Michigan is the Flint Junior Coach-De-Luxe which is "designed and built to Flint standards and meets the demand of those thousands of motorists who have desired Flint quality in the field of low-price sixes." The Flint was an automobile marque that was assembled by the Flint Motors Division Flint Michigan between 1923 and 1927. Flint Motors was a wholly owned subsidiary of Durant Motors Company USA. The Flint was considered an assembled car because Durant Motors used components manufactured by outside suppliers to build its automobile lines. The cars were powered by a 6-cylinder Continental engine and its body stampings were made by Budd in Philadelphia. The origins of the Flint can be traced back to the Willys car company which under the direction of Walter P. Chrysler had been working on a prototype for a proposed 6-cylinder car. Willys had to sell off this prototype as part of its efforts to raise cash during a financial crisis. Once acquired this prototype was further modified to create the Flint. Following financial troubles at Durant Motors the Flint was discontinued in 1927. The Flint was priced to compete with Buick which was also assembled in Flint Michigan. Automobiles produced by Flint should not be confused with those manufactured by the Flint Automobile Company founded by A. B. C. Hardy in 1901 and which went out of business in 1903 after manufacturing only 52 automobiles in the $750–$850 price range. Inked name an address on rear cover and minor wear to the top edges else a near fine copy. Privately printed, n. d. (ca 1924). unknown
