1826Best.-Nr. 47522Washington DC: Gales & Seaton 1826. Very Good. Washington DC: Gales & Seaton 1826. First Edition. Octavo 22cm; original publisher's cloth over blue paper-covered boards; 77pp.; one fold-out plate. Collated complete. Boards rubbed with some spotting and dampstains; cloth on spine fraying. Front cloth joint splitting but holding; pages foxed; endpapers dampstained. Unidentified numerical ex-library stamp on top of p. 3 else free of institutional markings. Overall a Very Good copy. Inscribed on front cover: "From the Honble. John Q. Adams" who served as U.S. President at the time of publication and contributed the introductory comment published on p. 3. This inscription written on behalf of the President whose hand suffered from a tremor later in his career. Volume documenting the challenges the U.S. government faced trying to enforce an 1808 ban on the international slave trade which involved a complicated six-year-long case in which three American slave ships the Constitution the Louisa and the Merino were seized for transporting enslaved people between Havana Cuba Pensacola Florida and Mobile Alabama. More than 100 enslaved people were seized in the capture of the ships. At the conclusion of the case in 1825 only 65 of them were accounted for the others died escaped or were simply lost in the broader institution of slavery. The 65 remaining humans were sold at auction and the slave traders were not punished other than the financial loss of their ships and cargo. While the enforcement of the 1808 ban may have been a deterrent for some slave traders the National Archives estimates that 1.2 million slaves were brought into the U.S. illegally during the first half of the 19th century. Provenance: We have been unable to establish which library this came out of though we have checked each copy-specific description of the examples listed in OCLC none of which are described as being inscribed by or for Adams. The previous owner states that he purchased this copy from a Parisian dealer in the 1980s.

D.B. GREGORY & CO. LIVERY & SALE STABLES BEST STOCK HORSES & BUGGIES.OSAGE MISSION KAN.

1870Best.-Nr. 55334Osage Mission Ks. N.d. ca. 1870s. Hand-Painted Trade Sign for a Kansas Livery Stable A remarkable and very attractive handmade sign for D.B. Gregory's livery stable in Osage Mission Kansas. Undated the style of the sign suggests a date of the 1870s. The center of the sign shows a lovely illustration in profile of a horse pulling a single-rider four-wheeled carriage along a dirt road. The text above the illustration reads "D.B. Gregory & Co." and below: "Livery & Sale Stables / Best Stock / Horse & Buggies / Main Bet. County & Neosho Strs. / Osage Mission Kan." The lettering is in black with blue and purple shadowing and "Osage Mission Kan." is drawn in a very ornate style. The entire sign is decorated with purple watercolor ornamentation. On the verso is a pencil sketch of the horse and the lower half of the carriage likely a preliminary sketch for the finished illustration. David B. Gregory born in 1846 in Iowa established his livery business with his brother in Osage Mission now St. Paul Neosho County Kansas by the early 1870s. An advertisement in the March 23 1873 issue of the OSAGE MISSION TRANSCRIPT describes Gregory's livery as having a "fine and well selected stock of horses and carriages.the best matched teams for style and speed in the city. Saddle horses for ladies and gents a specialty that defy competition." Settlers came to the region around Osage Mission in the 1840s following the founding of nearby Fort Scott in 1842. Osage Mission itself was founded in 1847 by Father John Schoenmakers as a mission to local Indian tribes and then grew into a town in its own right serving as a trading post and gateway for commerce and westward exploration. By the late 1860s it had grown to nearly 900 people with a hotel boarding house saloon stables general store hardware store and blacksmith. A rare significant and informative survival from the American frontier. Hand-drawn and hand-painted watercolor sign on a 14 x 18¾-inch sheet of cardstock. Pencil sketch for the same sign on the verso. Small chips at lower corners some light soiling. Very good. unknown
