Trade Voyage Log Book: Hubbart Samuel
EXCEPTIONAL DAILY LOG BOOK FOR THE FINAL VOYAGE OF THE SHIP Washington AN AMERICAN MERCHANT VESSEL IN THE FEDERAL-ERA TRADING IN INDIA AND ON ITS WAY TO GERMANY BEFORE WRECKING OFF THE COAST OF ENGLAND
Mostly at sea from New York with stops in Calcutta Saint Helena Ascension Island and Cornwall England 1796. 246pp. Square folio. Original crude burlap covers stab-sewn with thick string. A bit toned and foxed occasional ink or tobacco burns. Very good. A remarkable artifact of early American naval commerce containing the sailing directions and shipboard activities of the "Ship Washington of Philadelphia" which sailed from New York to Calcutta rounding the southern tip of Africa and visiting Saint Helena and Ascension Island before crashing on the rocks at Cornwall England on the way to Hamburg Germany. The log contains a navigational ledger with locations headings wind and weather remarks along with occasional sick lists names of men "unfit for duty" those put on light duty temperatures and other information. The remarks are quite detailed and specific regarding shipboard work and activity. <br> <br> The captain of this final voyage of the ship WASHINGTON was Samuel Hubbart but the identity of the sailor who kept this log is unknown. The ship departed New York on July 4 1795 and reached Calcutta on August 31. Without the need for recording navigational data while in port the log's author switches from the ledger-style format and writes longer more-detailed daily entries describing the crew's activities. The crewmen mentioned include pilots boatswains carpenters coopers caulkers sailmakers and others. Most of the entries pertain to the maintenance of the ship while anchored in the bay. Numerous mentions are made of crew on board fixing various equipment including types and amounts of supplies. A few entries note the employment of Indian "Cooleys" on board the ship making various repairs. An interesting incident of September 17 bears relating: <br> <br> "Hearing a noise upon the main Deck Mr. Naylor went to see what was the matter - upon engaging found Abraham Moor had struck Thomas Williams the Cook as Moor said for wanting to trouble a girl which Moor had on board - Mr. Naylor told him he should not ill use that man for he had every reason to believe it to be false what he alledged against the Cook. Moor said he did not come here to be jawd by a black Man.S." <br> <br> After swearing he would "never go home" on the WASHINGTON Moor literally jumped ship just after this confrontation and hid on another ship before being found and brought back to the WASHINGTON "in irons." <br> <br> In early November a few entries mention the ship receiving a supply of sugar taking on "Three Burr Load of Sugar" on November 7 and two more "Burr Load" two days later. Subsequent entries detail the loading of several "Burr Load of Bales" and "one hundred bags of ginger." <br> <br> Over the course of the ship's time at Calcutta the author mentions encounters with at least four other American ships: the GANGES the HAMILTON the MAJOR PINKNEY of Charleston and the "American Ship Camilla of New York arriv'd here from London." <br> <br> By early February the WASHINGTON left Calcutta for the voyage to Hamburg spelled variously here as "Hamborough" and "Hamburgh" though the ship would never make it to Germany. On March 15 and again on April 6 the recordist notes an inventory of the ship's water supply. By March 23 the ship reaches a point "prependicular on Cape Lagulas Bank" the southernmost point of Africa. About a week later the punishment of a drunken sailor is reported: <br> <br> "Joseph Gonrabbysp who has for some time past been addicted to Drunkeness and no person on board having given him any liquor he was discovered this morning to have taken from the Ships stores about half a Gallon of rum and from his being frequently very drunk there is no doubt of his having been Guilty of the same offence before for which Capt. Hubbart is necessitated to order his Boatswain to flog him. Accordingly mustered all hands aft and give him one and a half dozen lashes." <br> <br> On April 16 the WASHINGTON arrived at the remote island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean sending "the Boat on shore with an Officer to the Governor for permission to Anchor." Here the WASHINGTON restocked supplies including water potatoes & other vegetables rice and bread before embarking for Ascension Island which they reached on April 25. The author remarks on the "number of remarkable rocks like pyramids" and "a low point of black Rocks with a fine white sandy beach back of it" witnessed at Ascension Island. The WASHINGTON spent one night at Ascension where a group of men went ashore in order to "spend the Night in Catching Turtle in the different Bays." The crewmen caught twelve turtles and brought them aboard ship before continuing their journey. <br> <br> While heading north to Europe the WASHINGTON was boarded on May 17 by the "Quebec British Frigate Cap J Cook in Company with the Carnatic 74 Rear Admr Powel with a convoy of 21 sail of Transports & Gun boats with 10000 Troops on board bound for Martinico Martinique." On June 7 they again encounter another ship "a Spaniard from some port in South America bound for Cadiz out 3 months & 10 days - we cannot understand rightly what port she was from." <br> <br> Then on June 18 disaster struck the WASHINGTON as it ran aground at the Lizard Rocks off Cornwall England. The log book records the ship's demise: <br> <br> "The weather still very thick and hazy. At 9PM hearing the Surf break on shore took in all the studding sails Braced the Yards sharp and hauled to the Southward finding ourselves in amongst the Rocks off the Lizard have all aback and endeavored to get her out from among them but the Flood tide making very strong drove the Ship so hard upon the Rocks that with every endeavour we found it impracticable to get her off she having settled on them & the strength of the tide Thumping her very hard upon the Rocks sounded the Pump and found she made water very fast. Fired several Guns as a signal of Distress which brought several boats off from the Shore to our assistance." <br> <br> For the next couple of weeks the crew of the WASHINGTON participated in "discharging the cargo" from the ship so that it is not "plundered by the natives" sending everything to Falmouth "where the Goods are deposited under the protection of a Custom house Yaught." The log book mentions one crewman of the WASHINGTON "threatening revenge on Captain Hubbart." Another crewman is put "under a Guard of Soldiers" after selling off some of the muslin stored in the bales rescued from the wreck. Here the ship's log ends along with the career of the Ship WASHINGTON. <br> <br> A unique record of the last voyage of an early American trading vessel with insight into late 18th-century navigational methods and the commercial interests of Federal-era America. unknown books

S. S. Manchuria -- Unique Photo Album of Manila Rangoon Penang Singapore Java Seoul Hawaii California and Arizona
early 20th century. Very Good. Morocco over flexible boards "Photographs" stamped in gilt on upper board bound with thin black rope; oblong approx. 8-by-6 inches; contains more than 150 black leaves each with a b/w photograph silver gelatin print affixed to the recto and labelled by hand in white ink. Photos occasionally are attached to the verso as well. Nearly 200 photographs total. Average photo size is about 4.75-by-3.5 inches. Boards scuffed along the edges; slight wave to text block; photographs are in near fine condition a few subject to some a touch of fading and light rubbing. <br/><br/>Though only a few images directly mention the "Steamer Manchuria" showing members the band a group of Russian children and "Embarking at Honolulu" it is likely that this rich travelogue captures it's entire voyage through the Far East -- either on it's regular route for the Pacific Mail Steamship Company's trans-Pacific service or in 1905 when the Mancuria sailed from San Francisco on a goodwill tour of the Far East carrying a large U.S. Congressional delegation under the leadership of Secretary of War William Taft. There are very few personal photographs to establish our photographer's identity as most pictures are of landmarks landscapes and artifacts such as a bamboo organ in Manila pagodas in Rangoon horse-drawn carriages in various locations. The few images that include people are usually candid with their subjects ignoring or unaware of the photographer -- such as people playing games on deck and surfing photos taken at Waikiki beach. And one labelled "Diving for Coins Singapore" is particularly lovely showing the young men jumping from their canoes. A long far-flung journey with scenes of Manila Rangoon Penang Singapore Java Seoul Hawaii California San Francisco Yosemite Park and Arizona Grand Canyon. Demonstrates a curious eye it seems that the elephants working in the lumber yards of Rangoon were particularly compelling and thankfully an adept one as all photographs are nicely composed exposed and printed. hardcover books

Travel Vernacular Photography
TRAVEL ALBUM OF A ST. LOUIS DEBUTANTE
The personal photographic album of Eppes Bartow Hawes Williams 1902-81 a St. Louis debutante and U.S. Senator's daughter who married five times and traveled annually to Europe. The album dates from the mid 1930s and contains more than 100 photographs including original photos of Gertrude Stein and the French artist Bernard Boutet de Monvel aboard ship. The first image in the album is a magazine clipping from the wedding of Laura and Peter Bostwick in 1933 at which Eppes nee Mrs. Lewis T. Preston served as matron of honor. Bostwick the grandson of Standard Oil founder Jabez A. Bostwick was a sportsman and one of the leading steeplechase owners. Eppes' father was Senator Harry Bartow. She graduated from Maryville College in Missouri and was presented to Society first in St. Louis and then in Washington D.C. and New York. As a young girl she was noted for her athletic ability and qualified for the Olympics as a high board diver. The photographs some which are briefly captioned in pencil or ink show Eppes and her friends at the beach playing tennis and socializing. A few images in the album are captioned "polo Aiken" and "Gold Cup races" presumably referring to steeplechase races in Virginia. It appears this album dates from 1933-35 as clippings in the album refer to her as Mrs. Preston; however many original photographs show her with Lloyd Moore her second of five husbands whom she married in 1935. Her first husband was Lewis Thompson Preston CEO of JP Morgan and eighth president of the World Bank Group. On May 11 1935 Eppes and Moore who were not yet married sailed from New York to England aboard the SS Champlain a cabin class ocean liner. Among the passengers was the French artist Bernard Boutet de Monvel who posed for a photograph with Eppes. The album also contains two photographs of Gertrude Stein standing on the ship's deck. For Stein this voyage was her return trip home to Paris. In October 1934 Stein arrived in America after a 30-year absence for an exhausting six-month tour that transformed her from a noteworthy but little known author into a national celebrity. The photographs are pasted to the stiff album pages only half the album is used which are bound in an oblong brown leather album with gilt stamping. Though both joints are cracked the binding remains sound. unknown books

Japan Travel Photography Western Tourist Album Showing Temples Theater and Imperial Circuits Including Korea 1930s
1930. Japan travel photograph album. 1930s. This album documents Western travel through Japan during a period of expanding imperial influence and managed international tourism recording temple architecture theatrical performance and curated cultural sites alongside limited family portraiture. The photographs provide primary visual evidence of how foreign visitors encountered Japan through established travel circuits that emphasized religious monuments scenic landscapes and staged cultural forms while also including a labeled image from Korea that situates the journey within the geography of Japanese colonial rule.<br /> <br /> Album containing 22 silver gelatin photographs each mounted one per page with white ink captions identifying locations including "Nikko" "Kyoto" "Shochiku-za" "Koya San" "Akashi" "Takao" and "Korea." Three photographs depict members of a Western family posed in studio and outdoor settings including portraits in front of temple gates and residential entrances. The remaining images focus on architectural and cultural sites including temple facades with detailed ornamentation mountain and waterfall landscapes and a staged theatrical performance at the Shochiku-za theatre in Osaka showing performers in elaborate costume and makeup. One photograph labeled "Korea" depicts seated women wearing hanbok indicating travel beyond the Japanese home islands. The photographs are consistently sized at approximately 5 x 7 inches and mounted in an album measuring approximately 8.5 x 12 inches bound in cloth boards with decorative striping and cord binding.<br /> <br /> The album was produced during a decade when Japan promoted domestic and imperial sites as destinations for foreign travelers integrating religious landmarks urban infrastructure and colonial territories into a coherent tourist experience. Sites such as Nikko and Koya San were presented as emblematic of national heritage while theatrical venues and scenic locations formed part of structured itineraries. The inclusion of Korea reflects the extension of these travel routes into occupied regions where colonial subjects and landscapes were incorporated into representations of the empire. Photographs remain clear with strong contrast; minor wear to album consistent with handling; overall very good. A focused visual record of Western travel in 1930s Japan documenting how cultural sites and imperial geography were presented to foreign visitors. unknown
