[IMPRESSMENT OF SLAVES] [JEFFERSON DAVIS] [MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT]
CONFEDERATE IMPRINT House of Representatives Jan 10. 1865 - Referred to Special Committee on Impressments and ordered to be printed. Message of the President. Richmond Va. Jan 5. 1865
Richmond 1865. Self-wrappers. Fine. Octavo 5pp. Just about fine in self-wrapers with unopened pages. A faint "Rebel Archives" stamp appears at the top of the front wrap. Clean bright pages and crisp corners. This published correspondence between Davis and Secretary of War James Seddon brings to light the desperation at the end of the War on the Confederate side when they were beginning to press slaves into military service. The Confederacy resisted this for some time in order to keep African-Americans off the field of battle which might have earned them some acknowledgment of bravery and sacrifice thus undermining some of the core ideology undergirding the slave system. A desirable pamphlet. Parrish and Willingham 2298. unknown

[INCUNABLE - COLOGNE EDITION OF THE ARS MORIENDI].
Speculum artis bene moriendi = Ars moriendi.
Cologne: Heinrich Quentell 1495. Recent marbled paper over boards by the Geneva bookbinder Jean-Luc Honegger b. 1953 who set up his atelier ca. 1978 signed with his honegger stamp in blue ink at the foot of the back paste-down sewn on 3 recessed supports the marbled paper in an antique spot pattern see Wolfe 162-163 with black spots on unusually fine-grained grey Stormont spots and with veins in red turquoise orange dark blue and white black morocco spine label with the title in gold roman capitals reading up the spine. Small Chancery 4to 20.5 x 14.5 cm. With a large woodcut 10.0 x 8.8 cm on the title page: depicting a teacher Pope Gregory the Great ca. 600 CE declared a saint in 1295 with a dove on his shoulder his attribute seated behind a lectern with an open book instructing two of his pupils seated before him each with a book in his hands with above them a scroll inscribed Accipies tanti doctoris dogmata sancti. Set in a single column with 36 lines to the page in a rotunda gothic type Quentell type 7 here 79G though in the Typenrepertorium 80G with a larger textura gothic for the first line of the title Quentell type 10 155G though the only capital in that line is the 8 mm lombardic initial S Quentell initials e described as 6/7 mm but noting that they are used with type 10. With spaces left for manuscript initials 1 6-line and many 3-line a few - mostly on b1v and b2r - with manuscript guide letters in black ink. Most pages with a few words underscored in black ink. Quentells second quarto edition of the well-known manual on the art of dying in the original Latin matching his ca. 1493 quarto edition almost line for line and using the same woodcut quite different from any used with this text before that date. Quentells quarto editions contain the original long version of the text known as Speculum artis bene moriendi often attributed to Matthaeus de Cracovia or Albertus Magnus editions in Italian are often attributed to Dominicus de Capranica Cardinal of Fermo. The Ars moriendi was one of the earliest incunabula printed and consists of two related Latin texts written around 1415 and 1450 offering guidance on how to have a good death according to Christian beliefs of the late Middle Ages. The texts were written in response to the Black Death and social upheavals of the 15th century with the earliest versions likely composed in southern Germany. The highly popular Ars moriendi was translated into many West European languages and was the first in a tradition of guides to death and dying. The first edition in the original Latin appeared ca. 1474 but was preceded by a German edition in 1473 and perhaps by an edition in Italian described as ca. 1471/75. Quentell published the Latin text together with other works in a folio edition described as ca. 1484/89 but he published four quarto editions of the Ars moriendi alone described as ca. 1493 the present ca. 1495 ca. 1498 and another probably after 1500. He published no Ars moriendi editions in vernacular languages. His first three quarto editions have the same collation but the present edition matches the ca. 1493 edition almost line for line and uses the same woodcut while the ca. 1498 edition differs considerably and uses a different woodcut.Heinrich Quentell one of the greatest early Cologne printer-publishers issued many theological and philosophical texts for university use but also liturgical texts working both alone and with Johann Helman who may have also jointly employed contract printers and dispatched servants to sell books. Quentell was one of the first printers to consistently provide his books with title-pages with approximately 91% of his over 380 publications including one.Quentell used the present Magister cum discipulis-woodcut in several other editions including the Heymericus de Campo Promptuarium argumentorum 1492 GW 12406 and Jacobus van Gruitrode Speculum aureum animae peccatricis 1493 GW M10728. Wynkyn de Worde used a copy in his Parabolarum Alani cum commento 1508 STC 254.3 and other printers copied it as well.All Quentells Ars moriendi editions are undated and the present one used his types 7 and 10 and initials e which all apeared in his books in the period 1488 to 1500. The present edition is probably dated ca. 1495 in the literature because it appears to fall between the two quarto editions thought to date from ca. 1493 and ca. 1498.The bookbinder Jean-Luc Honegger still active today is best known for his bindings for the Bibliothèque Nationale de France in Paris and the Bodmer Foundation near Geneva. With the bookplate of the Bibliotheca Philosophia Hermetica Joost Ritman in Amsterdam and probably bound for them. Slightly browned water stains at the foot of a few leaves not approaching the text some smudges in the margins and on the blank final page. The binding slightly worn at the extremities and with a few unobtrusive scratches on the back board. Otherwise in very good condition and only slightly trimmed about 5 mm at the head and probably no more at the fore-edge and foot giving generous margins about 2 3 and 4 cm at the head fore-edge and foot respectively and some leaves with tranchefiles at the foot.l Bibliothèque Nationale Catalogue des incunables A598; BMC I p. 294; Bod-Inc A449; Bohonos Szandorowska Incunabula quae in bibliothecis Poloniae asservantur 562; BSB-Ink A766; Buffévent VIII 45; Goff A1098; Günther Wiegendrucke der Leipziger Sammlungen 781; GW 02610; HC 14911; ISTC ia01098000; Madsen Kongelige Biblioteks inkunabler 352; Ohly-Sack 274; ÖNB-Ink A483; Pell 1339; Polain 972; Proctor 1425; Sack Freiburg 306; Sallander Uppsala 2046; Schramm VIII 484; Schreiber Manuel de lamateur de la gravure sur bois et sur métal au XVe siècle 3671; Thienen Incunabula in Dutch libraries 425; UBL-Ink A354; USTC 739947; Voulliéme Die Buhdrucker Kölns 305; Voulliéme Inkunabeln der Königlichen Bibliothek 1011; Voulliéme Trier 697.

Will you help us and thereby help yourselves and thereby the workers SEND ALL CONTRIBUTIONS TO WM. HAYWOOD TREASURER GENERAL DEFENSE COMMITTEE 1001 WEST MADISON STREET CHICAGO ILL. 101 of the arrested Industrial Workers of the World IWW defendants were tried under the federal Espionage Act and convicted in federal court in Chicago in 1918. Sentences varied individually between 1 and 20 years in federal prison. Haywood got 20 years. Haywood and and a 8 other defendants skipped bail while their cases were on appeal in 1921 and went to live in the USSR where Haywood married and remained until his death in 1928. The IWW was severely crippled by all of the government trials and persecution and the continuing competition from the larger and less radical American Federation of Labor. The flight of Haywood and other leaders to the USSR probably didn't help. This IWW broadside appeal for funds seems to be quite uncommon. General Defense Committee unknown

This "New Series" or "Second Series" of The One Big Union Monthly was the official monthly periodical of The Industrial Workers of the World which ran for eighteen issues from January 1937 to June 1938. This publication was preceded by The Industrial Pioneer which ran February 1921 to September 1926 though publication was suspended for fifteen month from February 1922 through April 1923 and by the "First Series" of The One Big Union Monthly which ran March 1919 to January 1921.<br /> <br /> It is immediately noticeable how many of the contributors and artists signed their work using pseudonyms their IWW card numbers or simply chose to remain uncredited more than likely due to the repression and fear of retribution that unions especially IWW members faced during this time in American history. Furthermore it seems as though the canons and biographies of many of the highly accomplished cartoonists and illustrators featured in this publication artists such as Pashtanika Dust Wallin Fred Jerger among several others uncredited or unidentifiable to us remain surprisingly under-documented and/or inaccessible to our online research attempts while cataloguing. Although we must note here that the website "Cartooning Capitalism" created by Michael Mark Cohen does provide some good coverage on the subject https://www.cartooningcapitalism.com/. Franklin Rosemont's 1987 essay "A Short Treatise on Wobbly Cartoons" sheds good light on the subject as well — Rosemont's essay is reprinted in more recent editions of Joyce L.

Pleistocene. I suppose this creature's organism to have been similar to our own and his instinct & organic action and the degree of its development must depend on the nature of an animals organs. I do not suppose that this man was more than an animal - that he had reason or speech- Birds build their nests by instinct; For rest of text see images" Note: A. The talk or lecture is in a flimsy folder on which is an apparent ascription to an "H.Harris" BUT see photograph of the concluding initials not interpreted by me; B. "The image of one page of six is a handwritten letter or manuscript page from June 1865 containing a discussion of mythological and historical theories regarding ancient peoples and their origins. The author speculates on topics such as the origins of amber trade routes the identity of the Finns and other northern tribes as descendants of Tubal Cain and the potential characteristics of the descendants of Cain. The text concludes by acknowledging that these are merely theories subject to change with better information or understanding of 'revelation.'" AI; C."The Middle and Late Pleistocene is arguably the most interesting period in human evolution. This broad period witnessed the evolution of our own lineage as well as that of our sister taxon the Neanderthals and related Denisovans. It is exceptionally rich in both fossil and archaeological remains and uniquely benefits from insights gained through molecular approaches such as paleogenetics and paleoproteomics that are currently not widely applicable in earlier contexts. This wealth of information paints a highly complex picture often described as ‘the Muddle in the Middle’ defying the common adage that ‘more evidence is needed’ to resolve it." See Images total item.

[International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (The World Bank)]
Articles of Agreement Between the United States of America and Other Powers; Formulated at the United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference Bretton Woods New Hampshire July 1 to July 22 1944
Washington DC: Government Printing Office 1946. First Edition. The first US printing detailing the articles of agreement of the World Bank. Original printed stapled wrappers with minor rubbing and toning staple rust ownership signature of R.H. Stimson to front cover else very good. 33 pp. The official U.S. State Department publication of the founding charter that established the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development commonly known as the World Bank. This document represents the second major institution created at Bretton Woods alongside the International Monetary Fund specifically designed to finance post-war reconstruction in Europe and promote economic development in emerging nations.<br /> <br /> While the IMF focused on monetary stability and exchange rates the World Bank was conceived to provide long-term capital for reconstruction and development projects that private investors were unwilling or unable to finance. The Bank's initial mission centered on rebuilding war-torn Europe but it quickly evolved to focus primarily on development lending to what would become known as the developing world.<br /> <br /> The timing notation is significant: though formulated during the July 1944 Bretton Woods Conference the Articles weren't signed until December 27 1945 - the same date the IMF came into effect when the ratification threshold was met. The United States deposited its instrument of acceptance on December 20 1945 just one week before the effective date demonstrating the critical American role in launching both institutions.
