Grushkin 505-506. King 105-206. These postcards are all the first King variants except for two as noted in our list of them. Family Dog would mail these postcards to their mailing list to alert them of new shows coming to town. These postcards are not the ones that were printed for bulk mail rate. Corresponding posters were printed at the same time as the postcards to be hung up at places around town that would alert people to the latest concert news. Every postcard is a striking example of the psychedelic aesthetic. Two postcards with a tiny abrasion overall a beautiful set. Family Dog Productions [1967] [1968] unknown

Report of the d'Hauteville Case: The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. At the Suggestion of Paul Daniel Gonsalve Grand d'Hauteville versus.Ellen Sears Grand d'Hauteville. Habeas Corpus for the Custody of an Infant Child
Philadelphia: W. S. Martien 1840. First edition. bound with The Petition of Henry C. De Rham to the General Assembly of Rhode Island To Except Paul Daniel Gonsalve Grand d'Hauteville From the Operation of the Law 'To Secure the Fulfillment of Certain Contracts and for the Relief of Married Women in Certain Cases.' Together with a Remonstrance of Ellen S. d'Hauteville.Providence: Knowles & Vose 1841.

First edition.<br /> <br /> Three volumes bound in one. Finely bound by Bradstreet's in half morocco over marbled boards with gilt to spine. Top edge gilt. Marbled endpapers. Armorial bookplate of Samuel F. Barger to front pastedown. Measuring 225 x 135mm and collating complete including titles: 295 1 blank; 124 2 errata; 2 44. A just about Fine copy with some inoffensive pencil annotations and corrections to volume I and occasional faint foxing; overall a pleasing copy of three scarce legal works related to women's custody rights according to international and interstate law. <br /> <br /> Three scarce tracts documenting the international custody battle that became highly publicized and debated in its time. In 1837 American citizen Ellen Sears married Daniel Gonsalve d'Hauteville a member of the Swiss nobility. During their brief union Ellen survived emotional neglect and mental cruelty from her husband whose "self-image as paterfamilias conflicted with Ellen's growing sense of herself as a mother tormented by an unfeeling spouse" DiFonzo. Pregnant and unhappy she left her husband for the U.S. giving birth to her son after her arrival. Under Common law doctrine d'Hauteville demanded that his wife and child return to his household in Switzerland. "But Sears and her Philadelphia lawyers devised a strategy that would challenge the accepted legal formulation along its emerging cultural fault line.leveraging mental cruelty into an accusation that d'Hauteville had violated the standards of the changing American family" DiFonzo. This strategy combined with gains that the women's movement had made in the U.S. and Europe marital property laws within the century helped bolster her position and win her custodial rights.<br /> <br /> "The d'Hauteville case was not a single event in a courtroom but a set of multiple legal experiences that exposed timebound and timeless realities of American legal culture. The case began in an insular way as a domestic drama must with the rapid rise and equally rapid fall of the d'Hauteville marriage. But as the fight for the son Frederick displaced their marriage as the central focus of Ellen and Gonsalve's relationship the law assumed a greater and greater presence in their lives. The pair not only confronted contradictions between their own ideas about justice and the legal rules they had to learn they also experienced the transformation of their domestic tragedy into a legal event with innumberable participants from lawyers judges and legislators to courtroom spectators newspaper reporters and diarists" Grossberg. <br /> <br /> The present tracts trace d'Hauteville's initial petition for Habeas Corpus followed by his petition to be exempted from a Rhode Island law protecting the rights of mothers. The final title tracks the case's conclusion providing a review. W. S. Martien unknown

[Filipino American Photographica]: [Acosta Family]
Collection of Original Vernacular Photographs Documenting the Life and Family of Rafael and Teresa Acosta a Filipino-American Family
Various locations in the United States the Philippines Puerto Rico and others 1995. Very good. 290 original vernacular photographs some with manuscript captions measuring between 2.5 x 1.75 inches and 8 x 10 inches plus two partially-printed certificates completed in manuscript. Overall general wear. A unique collection of original vernacular photographs documenting the life and family of Rafael Ralph and Teresa Teresing Acosta Filipino immigrants to the United States in the mid-20th century. Ralph Sison Acosta 1917-1996 was born in Mangatarem in the Philippines. He is listed as the Filipino Third Mate on the manifest of a ship arriving in New York in 1940 having engaged the ship in Manila; this may represent Rafael's initial arrival in the United States. Later as evidenced by the present photographs he served as a personnel officer in the United States Army in the 1950s and beyond. Little is known about his wife Teresa Acosta 1917-2023. Both are buried at the Mount Olivet Catholic Cemetery in Wheat Ridge Colorado.<br /> <br /> The present collection of almost 300 photographs capture Rafael and Teresa their children relatives friends colleagues and others in a variety of settings in various locations over the course of several decades. Fifty-five of the images are captioned in ink in the front margins or on the verso; along with signage and other clues within the photographs the images were taken in Colorado Oregon Manila St. Thomas Puerto Rico Camp Atterbury and Fort Benjamin Harrison both in Indiana and likely other locations. The photographs seem to emanate from the various locations where Rafael was stationed during his long career in the Army. Interestingly among the annotated images a couple of the captions are written in the Filipino mother tongue of Tagalog. One small portrait of Teresa is inscribed by her to Rafael "Dearest Just a reminder that I love you and always will." Other annotated images identify people places situations and more important to the Acostas and their larger circle of family and friends.<br /> <br /> The other photographs most of which are not annotated include portraits of Ralph and his family at various ages plus images at home graduations family vacations portraits of family friends funerals and more. A group of about a dozen photos capture the Acosta family and some colleagues in Puerto Rico in 1956. A great deal of the images picture Ralph at work in the armed forces showing him as well as his colleagues at work posed outside barracks and other buildings and more. A handful of the images from 1967 are stamped on the verso as official photos of the U.S. Army's Rocky Mountain Arsenal in Denver. A vein of Catholicism runs through the photographs with images of churches church signs ceremonies a group shot with a priest and the like. One image of a ceremony inside a church is captioned: "Picture taken during the blessing ceremony of Sacred Heart of Jesus with all the spouses holding the ribbons from the crown of Jesus." These images stand to reason as the Acostas were Catholic themselves.<br /> <br /> In addition to the photographs the collection includes two certificates of appreciation from the Filipino American Community of Colorado -- one each given to Rafael and Teresa in 1995. The certificates acknowledge their "commitment and effort to support" the Filipino-American community in Colorado apparently where the Acostas retired once Rafael's military career was over. An excellent visual primary source collection memorializing the lives of a Filipino-American immigrant family whose patriarch served in the United States military in the decades following the Second World War. unknown

[GENEALOGY & HERALDRY - ROORDA FAMILY]. RODA, Dirk Daniels, and others
Manuscript family chronicle of members of the Roda Werdolen and Bos families.
The Netherlands 1750. Oblong 8vo ca. 10.5 x 16 cm. 18th-century gold-tooled calf gold-tooled spine each board with a double-fillet frame a centrepiece and four cornerpieces gilt edges green cloth ties. Manuscript on paper written in brown and black ink in several - 17th- 18th- and 19th-century hands. With a full-page unidentified coat-of-arms showing three salamanders drawn in brown ink and a page containing 6 smaller crests of branches of the Roorda family in black ink. 1 blank 5 3 blank 20 1 blank 1 78 blank ll. Manuscript family chronicle incorporating multiple chronicles from the 17th and 18th century. The manuscript chronicles the births and deaths of four generations of the Bos Werdolen or Verdole and Roda family in Amersfoort Groningen The Hague Scheveningen IJsselstijn Tiel Deventer Kampen Zuilen and Edam. The book was probably compiled by Dirk Daniel Roda 1726-1898 a lieutenant in the infantry and later beer brewer shortly after the death of his father in 1747. It incorporates chronicles by his father Michiel Roda 1686-1747 his maternal grandfather Jacob Werdolen chronicling 1668-1686 Jacob Werdolen's father Hendrik van Werdolen a note from 1639 and a copy by Hendrik's wife Barbera Bos born 1596 of the chronicle written by her father chronicling 1577-1601.The different chronicles are interleaved with notes by Dirk Daniel Roda which supply additional biographical information. In several pages he describes the his own Roorda ancestors in the 17th century and the process by which they changed their name to Roda. Other notes chronicle the origins of the Roorda family crest of which he has drawn the known six versions. A full-page coat-of-arms containing three salamanders was possibly drawn by Barbera Bos. Although this specific crest could not be identified it probably refers to a branch other than "Bos" meaning forest or wood in her family.With the bookplate of Eltjo Aldegondus van Beresteyn 1876-1948 on the front paste-down. Also with his library label on the front board. Van Beresteyn was very interested in genealogy explaining his possession of the present family chronicle and founded the Centraal Bureau voor Genealogie CBG. A pencil inscription on the second to last leaf notes that the book was bought from H. Coffrie in 1938.Binding somewhat worn and rubbed leather on the spine somewhat cracked and with a few minor gaps paste-downs slightly browned some occasional spotting browning and soiling but overall in good condition. A fascinating family chronicle with a very interesting provenance.l For Van Beresteyn: J.A.A. Bervoets 'Beresteijn jhr.

[Hammond Family of Massachusetts]
“By the Name of Hammond.†Late 18th to early 19th c. original watercolor coat-of-arms for the Hammond family of Massachusetts possibly commissioned by Samuel Hammond Boston Tea Party patriot
<p>Massachusetts likely Boston ca. late 18th to early 19th c. 14 x 11 inches. Watercolor ink pencil gouache highlights on a sheet of laid 18th c. paper very browned and mounted to a thin wooden backing. jnsbjc367325</p> <p>Watercolor arms were produced by a number of New England painters but the most prolific of the post-Revolutionary heraldic artists was John Coles Sr. 1749-1809 and his son John Coles Jr. 1778–1854 who studied with Frothingham under Gilber Stuart. The Senior Coles first appears in the Boston directories in 1796 as a “Heraldry Painter†but he was also a printer and publisher of engravings. From 1806-1807 he was located at 61 Newberry Street. Coles Jr. began his career in 1803. Nina Fletcher Little; American Antiquarian Society</p> <p>The present coat-of-arms was accomplished for the Hammonds of Massachusetts. It is unlike any other coat-of-arms we have seen for the Hammonds in America. The fronds or “cornstalks†are almost identical to those drawn by the Coles. See our example of the coat-of-arms for the Nickerson family also of Massachusetts for comparison. </p> <p>The arms may have been partly-derived from an English origin or completely made up from whole cloth by the Coles. Depicted on the gold-decorated shield of the coat of arms are a cross bearing a single fleur-de-lis and lion heads in each quadrant. The crest depicts the Great Seal of the United States atop a knight’s helmet. Supporting elements include two additional eagle heads in gold the “Cole†fronds in green additional vegetation in red and a banner with the legend “By the Name of Hammond.â€</p> <p>The likely patron for this coat-of-arms is Samuel Hammond 1748–1842 a Boston Tea Party participant cited in a recent article: “In 1773 he was 25 when he participated in the Boston Tea Party and a small quantity of tea accidentally lodged in his boot.†</p> <p>The Coles’s watercolor may have sought to re-brand the Massachusetts Hammond branch as a newly-minted and distinctly American family using the American eagle in the crest to mythologize Samuel Hammond’s role in the American Revolution.</p> <p>“Samuel Hammond was born in 1748 in Newton Mass. and was a ‘teamer’ meaning that he owned a team of horses and several wagons that could carry goods between Boston and neighboring towns and later a farmer in Vermont. In 1770 he married Mary née Rogers and had three children. In 1773 he was 25 when he participated in the Boston Tea Party and a small quantity of tea accidentally lodged in his boot. In the late 1770s he and his family moved north and were one of the founding settlers of Wardsboro where he died in 1842.†accessed online per “Wardsboro man honored as part of Boston Tea Party anniversary†and via Brattleboro Reformer.

Her brother introduced her to his friends as a harlot. Sentiment against her was at a high peak and widespread. She stood alone except for one girl friend who consented to sleep with her this night. It was a cold wintry night with several feet of snow on the ground. Suddenly footsteps came rushing up the stairway to her room the door flung open and there stood her brother Erland insane with anger. He pointed a pistol at her and with a demanding voice he said 'Deny your faith this minute or I will send a bullet through your heart.' She calmly replied 'You can take my life but never my faith.'
