1830Best.-Nr. 68976New York. 1830. Colonial Texas Stock Certificate with Shares for One of Its Founders A handsome and highly significant Texas stock certificate of the colonial era with a detailed map of Austin's colony. This copy is made out in manuscript to Lorenzo de Zavala and signed by him on the verso. Zavala's grant from the Mexican government comprised much of the company's land holdings and after moving unwillingly to Texas in 1835 after butting heads with Santa Anna he became one of the chief figures in the Texan independence movement as well as the first Vice President of Texas. This document technically serves as a scrip allowing settlement and the future surveying of a plot in this case one labor or about 177 acres rather than actual title to lands in Texas although of course Zavala had no need to worry about that distinction. Other copies are known granting the holder a scrip for a much larger sitio or about 4388 acres. "The Galveston Bay and Texas Land Company was founded in New York on October 16 1830 for the purpose of colonizing the lands assigned to the empresarios Joseph Vehlein David G. Burnet and Lorenzo de Zavala. The colonization contracts covered an area in East Texas lying east of the San Jacinto River and south of a line running twenty leagues north of Nacogdoches 3743163 acres. The company a real-estate promotion firm with agents land counselors surveyors and salesmen did not own land itself but sold scrip that allowed the settlers simply to move into the area allotted to the three empresarios. There the settlers had to complete all requirements of the Mexican colonization law before they could obtain title to land" - Texas State Handbook Online. "This certificate lists by date the four grants there were two grants to Vehlein to the three empresarios and gives the boundaries of the resulting tract. At the end is a provision that the location of the land is to be under supervision of the agent 'residing on the land' of the Trustees who on surrender of the scrip reports to the Commissioner appointed by the Government who issues titles 'Subject to the payments required by the Laws of the State'" - Streeter.

With a full page engraved portrait of Ambrose by Carlo Gregori 1719-1759 before the title red and black title page with an elaborate printer's mark with puti doing things to various printing implements. 2 large folios in full parchment of the time with gilt stamped titles on the spines engraved initials nicely printed.

Surprisingly hard to find in commerce no auction records in the last 70 years. Ambrogio Travesari 1386-1439 was an Italian monk and great proponent of papal supremacy. But he is particularly interesting because he became convinced that the knowledge and wisdom of the Greek fathers was important to the modern church and he decided to learn Greek so that he could read them in the original. He worked with a Byzantine refugee from Constantinople for 10 years translating Basil Athanasius Gregory of Nazianzus and of course John Chrysostom among others. As a result of his great respect for the Greek fathers he attempted to bring the Eastern and Western churches together at least to mediate the differences. "He supported the pope at Ferrara and Florence and worked hard in the attempt to reconcile the Eastern and Western Churches. Bt in this council and later in that of Florence Ambrose by his efforts and charity toward some poor Greek bishops greatly helped to bring about a union of the two Churches the decree for which 6 July 1439 he was called on to draw up. He died soon after. His feastday is celebrated by the Camaldolese Order on 20 November." Heavy and oversized for international shipping. ; Ex-Library; Folio 13" - 23" tall .

1834Best.-Nr. 351919Paris: Imprenta De Decourchant 1834. First edition. vii 374pp. Scattered annotations. 12mo. Contemporary red morocco marbled endpapers. Minor foxing and toning. First edition. vii 374pp. Scattered annotations. 12mo. Exiled from Mexico in 1830 Zavala came to New York to seek colonization for his empresario grants in southeastern Texas transferring his interests to the Galveston Bay and Texas Land Company. "From December 1832 until October 1833 he again served as governor of the state of Mexico before returning to the Congress as a deputy for his native state of Yucatán. Named by President Antonio López de Santa Anna in October 1833 to serve as the first minister plenipotentiary of the Mexican legation in Paris he reported to that post in the spring of 1834. When he learned that Santa Anna had assumed dictatorial powers in April of that year Zavala denounced his former ally and resigned from his diplomatic assignment. Disregarding Santa Anna's orders to return to Mexico City he traveled to New York and then to Texas where he arrived in July 1835. From the day of his arrival he was drawn into the political caldron of Texas politics. Although he first advocated the cause of Mexican Federalism within a few weeks he became an active supporter of the independence movement; he served in the Permanent Council and later as the representative of Harrisburg in the Consultation and the Convention of 1836. At the convention he signed the Texas Declaration of Independence along with Jose Francisco Ruiz Jose Antonio Navarro and fifty-six other delegates" Handbook of Texas. The present work described his journey and impressions of the United States during his visit from 1830-1831 and was published while stationed in Paris in 1834. Raines praises the work as "One of the few books of travel in the U.S. worth reading. A fine picture of American manners customs and institutions by a Mexican republican with some notice of Austin's colonization in Texas . A true patriot and uncompromising lover of liberty" Raines. The work is further noted as "an incredibly important although little known.meticulously written narrative about the democratic culture and institutions of the United States. Zavala's narrative not only stands as a major document of early Mexican-American letters but also as one of the first theoretical and ethnographic examinations of democracy as a political and cultural institution. Thus Zavala's book challenges the widespread acceptance by American scholars that Alexis de Toqueville's Democracy in America 1835 is the first book to take United States democracy as a focus of political and cultural study . Zavala's story of democratic peoplehood will no doubt in time be read as one of the founding political texts of U.S. and Mexican democratic culture" John-Michael Rivera in the introduction of the 2005 English translation of the present work published by Arte Público Press University of Houston 2005.
