Washington D.C.: United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Presumed one of a multiple printing. Single sheet printed on one side. Good/No dust jacket issued. Format is 7.5 inches by 8.5 inches. Image has a 5.25 diameter and is a circle with three black bands and two gold bands alternating around the outer edge. Slight curling noted. Framable. In the center is a colorful presentation of the seal with the bald eagle facing left toward the olive branch in its right talon. The eagle is under a grouping of 13 stars and is holding in its beak a ribbon that says E. Pluribus Unum. A brief and official explanation of the symbolism was prepared in the form of a historical sketch or pamphlet of the seal of the United States entitled The Seal of the United States: How it was Developed and Adopted. It was written by Gaillard Hunt in 1892 under the direction of then Secretary of State James G. Blaine. When the copyright on the pamphlet expired Hunt expounded upon the information in more detail. This was published in 1909 in a book titled The History of the Seal of the United States. This work was largely based on a two-volume work written in 1897 by Charles A. L. Totten titled Our Inheritance in the Great Seal of Manasseh the United States of America: Its History and Heraldry; and Its Signification unto the 'Great People' thus Sealed. Hunt's account greatly details how the seal was chosen containing sketches of other suggestions for a great seal which were made such as Franklin's suggested motto "Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God" information on the illegal seal iterations and changes that have been made to the seal and it also includes detailed descriptions of the symbology of the great seal such as that provided by Charles Thomson. The Great Seal is a principal national symbol of the United States. The phrase is used both for the physical seal itself which is kept by the United States Secretary of State and more generally for the design impressed upon it. The obverse of the Great Seal depicts the national coat of arms of the United States while the reverse features an unfinished pyramid topped by an Eye of Providence. The year of the U.S. Declaration of Independence 1776 is noted in Roman numerals at the base of the pyramid. The seal contains three Latin phrases: E Pluribus Unum "Out of many one" Annuit cœptis "Providence has favored our undertakings" and Novus ordo seclorum "New order of the ages". Largely designed by Charles Thomson secretary of the Continental Congress and William Barton and first used in 1782 the seal is used to authenticate certain documents issued by the federal government of the United States. Since 1935 both sides of the Great Seal have appeared on the reverse of the one-dollar bill. The coat of arms is used on official documents—including United States passports—military insignia embassy placards and various flags. The Seal of the President of the United States is directly based on the Great Seal and its elements are used in numerous government agency and state seals. Today's official versions from the Department of State are largely unchanged from the 1885 designs. The current rendering of the reverse was made by Teagle & Little of Norfolk Virginia in 1972. It is nearly identical to previous versions which in turn were based on Lossing's 1856 version. The recurring number 13 refers to the 13 original states. The arrows and olive branch together symbolize that the United States has "a strong desire for peace but will always be ready for war." The eagle has its head turned towards the olive branch on its right side to symbolize a preference for peace. The primary official explanation of the symbolism of the great seal was given by Charles Thomson upon presenting the final design for adoption by Congress. He wrote:<br /> <br /> The Escutcheon is composed of the chief & pale the two most honorable ordinaries. The Pieces paly represent the several states all joined in one solid compact entire supporting a Chief which unites the whole & represents Congress. The Motto alludes to this union. The pales in the arms are kept closely united by the chief and the Chief depends upon that union & the strength resulting from it for its support to denote the Confederacy of the United States of America & the preservation of their union through Congress. The colours of the pales are those used in the flag of the United States of America; White signifies purity and innocence Red hardiness & valor and Blue the colour of the Chief signifies vigilance perseverance & justice. The Olive branch and arrows denote the power of peace & war which is exclusively vested in Congress. The Constellation denotes a new State taking its place and rank among other sovereign powers. The Escutcheon is born on the breast of an American Eagle without any other supporters to denote that the United States of America ought to rely on their own Virtue.<br /> <br /> Thomson took the symbolism for the colors from Elements of Heraldry by Antoine Pyron du Martre which William Barton had lent him. That book said that argent white "signifies Purity Innocence Beauty and Genteelness" gules red "denotes martial Prowess Boldness and Hardiness" and azure blue "signifies Justice Perseverance and Vigilance" United States Bureau of Engraving and Printing unknown

Washington DC: U. S. Government Printing Office 1994. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Very good. xviii 2 304 2 pages. Frontis illustration. Footnotes. Thurgood Marshall July 2 1908 - January 24 1993 was an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States serving from October 1967 until October 1991. Marshall was the Court's 96th justice and its first African-American justice. Before becoming a judge Marshall was a lawyer who was best known for his high success rate in arguing before the Supreme Court and for the victory in Brown v. Board of Education a 1954 decision that ruled that segregated public schools were unconstitutional. He served on the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit after being appointed by President John F. Kennedy. He was appointed as the Solicitor General by President Lyndon Johnson in 1965. President Johnson nominated him to the United States Supreme Court in 1967 and he was approved by the Senate. In 2006 Thurgood a one-man play written by George Stevens Jr. premiered at the Westport Country Playhouse starring James Earl Jones and directed by Leonard Foglia. Later it opened Broadway at the Booth Theatre on April 30 2008 starring Laurence Fishburne. On February 24 2011 HBO screened a filmed version of the play which Fishburne performed at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. The production was described by the Baltimore Sun as "one of the most frank informed and searing discussions of race you will ever see on TV.". "His was the eye of a lawyer who saw the deepest wounds in the social fabric and used law to help heal them. His was the mouth of a man who knew the anguish of the silenced and gave them a voice."--Sandra Day O'Connor. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback
