1916réf. 13382Various locations in Connecticut 1916. 43pp. containing dozens of publications and ephemeral items tipped or pasted in. Quarto. Contemporary ledger book bound in tan buckram repurposed as a scrapbook with manuscript title on front cover reading "Snow's 1876 Press." Moderate foxing and staining to covers minor edge wear. A unique assemblage of material collected into a scrapbook by Glover Atwater Snow 1896-1969 an amateur journalist from Connecticut. Glover Atwater Snow would continue his father's work in amateur journalism and exceed his father's precociousness beginning his printing and amateur journalism career by the tender age of eight. Snow's father William Gamaliel Snow was a prominent early practitioner of amateur journalism. The early portion of the scrapbook contains numerous issues of amateur magazines produced by William G. Snow including seven issues of Every Month two issues of Pen and Press and the premier issues of both Our Town and Pen & Scissors. The book also includes four of William Snow's business cards a mock-up of the first issue of Pen & Scissors and a prospectus for the same. The contents then shift to material produced by Glover Atwater Snow beginning with some early job printing and an early letterpress letter sent to a friend. Of chief interest among Glover Snow's material are his mock-up of the first issue of his first amateur magazine Snow's 1876 Press and a copy of the first issue itself dated April 1904. In addition the scrapbook contains some of Snow's printed envelopes and other ephemera additional job printing including a handful of amateur magazines titled The Star and a one-page extra of The Willowbrook News dated January 15 1910 and listing Glover as manager. The scrapbook includes issues two through six of Snow's 1876 Press dated between January and October 1911; interestingly the subtitle of this publication is "Operated by the Second Generation" an obvious nod from Glover to his father. The scrapbook is rounded out by more ephemeral items and a consecutive run of eleven issues of Pen & Scissors which William Snow began with the one issue in 1900 and Glover continued beginning in November 1911 and ending in April 1916. Glover Snow assembled the present scrapbook in a retired receipt ledger from his father's employer International Silver Company. The date of assembly was necessarily 1916 the date of the final issue of Pen & Scissors or sometime afterwards. A wonderful collection of material spanning two generations of amateur journalism -- father and son. unknown books
1900réf. 13367Various locations in Connecticut New Jersey and Massachusetts 1900. Forty-one total issues most folded sheets some in wrappers some bound into boards detailed as below plus a folder of ephemeral items. Overall very good condition. An unprecedented collection of amateur journalism encompassing the career of William G. Snow 1863-1945 a prominent amateur editor publisher and printer who worked mostly in New England. Snow was born and died in Meriden Connecticut and in-between lived in New Jersey New York and Massachusetts. During his professional life Snow worked at a print shop in Hartford a dry goods commission house in New York and a lumber company in Massachusetts. When he returned to Meriden he served as the sales and advertising manager of the Meriden Britannia Company and its successor the International Silver Company. Snow's passion however was not in his professional work but rather his decades of work in amateur journalism. The present collection spans as far as we can tell his entire career as a creator of amateur magazines and includes the following: 1 The Penny Post. Vol. 1 No. 1. West Meriden CT: April 1877. 4pp. on a single folded sheet. Even toning minor wear. Very good. A very crude and unrecorded amateur magazine that was likely Snow's first attempt at the hobby. He would have been thirteen or just turned fourteen at the time of its publication. The first page contains some notices and part of a story called "The Frogs Picnic" which ends abruptly. The inner two pages contain the same price list for some address cards and the last page also advertises cards and other job print items. The small masthead indicates the magazine is "A Four Eight Column Amateur Paper" which is "Devoted to the interests of all classes." 2 Every Month bound with: Pen and Press. West Meriden CT: 1878-1879. Fifteen issues each between 4 and 8 pages bound together in contemporary tan paper-covered boards calf backstrip. A rare collection gathering all twelve of Snow's Every Month first two issues titled The Every Month and the only three issues of his first attempt at Pen and Press. The twelve-issue run of Every Month was published between April 1878 and March 1879. Snow then retitled the magazine Pen and Press publishing three issues between October 1879 and February 1880 as volume two with the subtitle "Formerly 'Every Month.'" He would have been fifteen and sixteen at the time he printed these publications. Every Month is held by just four institutions in OCLC Connecticut Museum of Culture & History Connecticut State Library the University of Georgia and AAS while OCLC records just two institutional holdings of Pen and Press at the University of Georgia and AAS. 3 The Sun. West Granville MA: 1880-1881. Nineteen issues most issues between 6 and 8 pages plus a one-page Supplement. A complete run of one of Snow's better-known amateur periodicals which he published at the tender age of seventeen after his family moved to Massachusetts. This paper is sometimes referred to in the amateur journalism hobby as The Granville Sun including in the typed history of the paper affixed to the front pastedown here. This history which is illustrated with a faded photograph of the house in which the Snows lived in West Granville Massachusetts where the paper was also printed was probably compiled by William Snow's son Glover Snow himself an amateur journalist. Another typed notice dated in Meriden in 1942 clarifies the seemingly incongruous volume and issue numbers on the issues of The Sun. In short this magazine begins as volume two issue sixteen because it was meant to follow the fifteen issues of Every Month and Pen and Press described above. Besides the first issue The Sun was printed in a much larger and more professional-looking format than Snow's previous work. 4 Pen and Press four issues. Bayonne N.J.: Pen and Press Publishing Co. January to April 1884. 43pp. String bound. An omnibus volume of the first only four issues of Snow's second attempt at Pen and Press this time published as a "Monthly Journal Devoted to Science Literature and Education in Bayonne" after the Snows moved to New Jersey in 1884. In addition to the issues this group includes the wrappers for the third issue. We're not sure how long this publication ran; the only institutional holding in OCLC is at Rutgers which seems to have the second issue only. 5 Our Town. Vol. 1 No. 1. Granville MA: Spring 1889. 3pp. on a single folded sheet. Though there is no publication information given on this amateur magazine we have reason to know it was produced by Snow given its inclusion in a scrapbook of Snow's publications we have also offered. The issue is unusual as it only uses three of the four available pages and has no masthead. It was probably a piece of job printing done by Snow to promote the town of Granville and its surroundings as most of the content implies. The only holding in OCLC is at AAS. 6 Pen & Scissors. Vol. I No. 1. Meriden CT: 1900. Issued by William Snow in September 1900. Snow mentions in a passage about the publication that he produced it out of "a desire to know what the boys of to-day were doing in amateur journalism." We believe this is the only issue of Pen & Scissors produced by Snow and constitutes his last foray into the hobby. His son Glover Atwater Snow would go on to revive Pen & Scissors beginning in 1911. OCLC reports three institutional holdings at the Alexander Turnbull Library in New Zealand NYPL and AAS. 7 Collection of William G. Snow's Job Printing and Ephemeral Items Relating to His Amateur Journalism. The periodicals above are rounded out with a collection of additional materials documenting the amateur journalism and printing career of William G. Snow. This includes a large unrecorded broadside in which Snow pairs his own amateur magazine The Sun with The Rural New Yorker a prominent New York agrarian publication to offer a subscription special; unrecorded prospectus for Snow's last publication Pen & Scissors; four business or calling cards; a few typed documents relating to amateur journalism; ten small broadsides or handbills of job printing advertising events in Meriden Granville or New York; and two pamphlets of job printing unrelated to amateur journalism. unknown books
1870réf. 45149London: s.i. 1870. Very Good. London: s.i. ca. 1870s. Small broadside flyer 20x13.5cm printed on laid paper. A few small closed tears at previous folds light soil and spotting else Very Good. Unrecorded broadside poking fun at the press and an England awash in the different newspapers that mushroomed throughout the middle of the 19th century--national local daily women's art science sports religious--and all providing wildly different takes on the same story. The handbill lists the opinions of twenty-two newspapers "upon the subject of the text which tells you that Jacob kissed Rachel and lifted up his voice and wept." The Daily Telegraph states "If Rachel was a pretty girl and kept her face clean we can't see what Jacob had to cry about" while the Jewish Chronicle surmises that "He wept for joy because it tasted so good" in direct contradiction with the British Standard which reports that "We reckon Jacob cried because Rachel had been eating onions."

1890réf. 55735N.p. but Puebla: Tip. Rinconada de Manzanares ca.1890s. Broadside Calling for Porfirio Díaz to Pardon Journalists and Political Prisoners An apparently unrecorded broadside from Mexico printed during the reign of President Porfirio Díaz who served a total of thirty-one years as the chief executive and effectively the dictator of Mexico. As with other dictatorial regimes Díaz had a contentious and sometimes violent relationship with the press. He is known to have very occasionally condoned if not initiated the murder and imprisonment of journalists though he also often courted journalists to give them the impression that he was on their side expecting support in return. As a result Diaz often favored imprisonment over the outright assassination of journalists. During his dictatorship Díaz sent numerous dissident politicians and journalists to the prisons of Belén or San Juan de Ulúa though being sent to the former was widely considered tantamount to a death sentence anyway. Journalists and political enemies were just two groups subject to Díaz's theory of rule - that cruel means though unfortunate were justified by the end result of national progress. The present broadside calls for clemency from Díaz in his dealings with imprisoned journalists and politicians. The author of the broadside mentions past injustices related to journalists and political prisoners. In the first column the text mentions Ignacio Ramirez and his pen name "el Nigromante;" Ramirez was a liberal writer and thinker who often defended the rights of indigenous peoples in Mexico. Here the author accuses the conservative party of trying to intimidate Ramirez and many others like him by putting "the hand of an enraged hitman on the neck of the liberal journalist." a rough translation. The text also references the Third Battle of Puebla fought on April 2 1867 and won by Porfirio Díaz. At the conclusion of that battle instead of executing the imperialist Mexican prisoners Díaz released them after they signed a promise not to take up further arms against the Mexican republic. The text appeals to Díaz's demonstrated sense of mercy and reads in part and in English translation: "We the members of the working class know well and have witnessed your energetic courage in the battlefields as an intrepid and worthy son of Mars but now also this time we do not demand but we beg to have the happiness and satisfaction to see and admire him as a hero of clemency for imprisoned journalists.and more so for his afflicted families who at this moment endure the crying and perhaps even the misery and fatal consequences of that prison in which the heads of those anguished families reside." The text also calls for clemency or pardons for a long list of political prisoners. The names of the prisoners held at Belén occupy the last column-and-a-half of the broadside. At the conclusion of the text there is a notice that indicates the petitioners have 4000 signatures in their favor for the demands made here. OCLC is silent on this broadside. It is at least an exceedingly rare if not a unique surviving example of the political tensions between President Díaz and his political opponents and journalists in Mexico at the end of the 19th century and a powerful and important entry in the ever-present struggle for the freedom of the press. Broadside 23½ x 15¾ inches printed in five columns with masthead showing a version of Mexico's coat of arms with eagle holding rattlesnake perched on crossed pikes above a cannon. Uniformly toned. Old folds and wrinkles short splits and minor loss at crossfolds mild staining. Overall good plus. unknown books
