1868réf. 32549Missouri: The Radical State Committee 1868. Very Good. Missouri: The Radical State Committee 1868. Printed broadside 30.5x10cm with illustrated eagle vignette to top; blue backing. Grant's campaign slogan "Let Us Have Peace" to top followed by the Radical Republicans ballot choices from President on down to the County Officers. Creasing and smudging; nicks and short tears to edges; overall Very Good and sound. The Radical Republicans pushed for the complete and permanent eradication of slavery and supported Grant in '68 and here are supporting Missouri Congressional Candidate G.A. Finkelnburg as well. Noteworthy is also the push "For Constitutional Amendment - Yes" presumably referring to the 15th Amendment the 14th was already ratified and adopted that July prohibiting states and the federal government from denying a citizen's right to vote based on race color or previous condition of servitude. A rare survival of Grant campaign ephemera and an illuminating record of the Reconstruction era's battling factions and ideals. More broadly the piece has a certain congruity given the import of the Missouri Compromise of 1820 of which Thomas Jefferson said "I considered it at once as the knell of the Union. It is hushed indeed for the moment. But this is a reprieve only not a final sentence." Not separately cataloged in OCLC. The Radical State Committee unknown
1941réf. 49161New York: The Dryden Press 1941. Very good plus. First printing of this anthology of works by Black Americans from the 18th-century poetry of Phillis Wheatley to the 20th-century essays of Alain Locke and much in between.

1954réf. List3210Greenville Illinois 1954. Two stapled packets of mimeographed typed pages eighty-seven and twenty-eight pages with one signed. Excellent to Near Fine. An autobiography and genealogy written by Ulysses S. DeMoulin 1871–1955 founder of DeMoulin Bros. a uniform manufacturing company which now mainly supplies marching band attire. The genealogy incorrectly traces the family’s history back to French Revolutionary figure Camille Desmoulins though it appears accurate otherwise. It includes a description of early Sebastopol Highland Illinois with a simple map. In the autobiography which is told in a large number of short anecdotes DeMoulin discusses his childhood and early life in Jamestown and Sebastopol and goes into detail about the early years of his company beginning with the formation of the Modern Woodmen of America fraternal organization for which the company supplied uniforms and items used in ‘rituals’. DeMoulin used the profits from this enterprise to invest in a number of others including a mine near Gold Hill Colorado and oil drilling land in Illinois. However the most interesting portions of the autobiography concern DeMoulin’s role in the development of agriculture in California’s Imperial Valley. DeMoulin first travels to southern California in 1903 happening to meet several engineers involved with the Imperial Irrigation System who take him to see the new town of Brawley: “Here by lantern light we sat around on the ground in the evening discussing many kinds of farm lands and if soft hard or sandy. We slept in ‘remadas’ made by setting posts to protrude about twelve feet above the ground which were then braced and divided into small box-like stalls. The remada was then covered with tree branches and a huge heavy taupalin sic curtain hung over the sides and front at night to keep out the dust of which you might find two or three inches at your door in the morning. A pitcher of water and a bowl were your only means of bathing. There were no streets in Brawley at this time only trails as the town had not yet been surveyed having only been founded in October 1902. People were living in tents while waiting for completion of hotel accommodations and other living quarters under construction.” DeMoulin begins buying land in the Brawley area to rent to farmers and traveling to the area regularly. He describes the building of the Laguna Dam spending a week at the workers’ camp “at which time I slept in the workmen’s crudely-built bunks and ate with them at the long rough pine tables”; and befriends author Harold Bell Wright. He also witnesses several conflicts with the IWW: “In 1908 there moved into Brawley about 200 International Workmen of the World or more familiarly known as ‘I.W.W.’s’ I won’t Work and in command was a Captain Stanley. However as most unwelcome guests they proceeded to join a strike in the cantaloupe sheds and inserting razor blades into apples the strikers threw them at workers. ‘Goons’ also tried to interfere with the trucking operations from the fields to the packing sheds. I recall of one driver telling a goon that if he even attempted to place a foot in his truck he would shoot him. And defying the driver the goon was instantly killed. Naturally this would cause a riot and they sent to El Centro for a tank such as it was in those days - a cannon and several machine guns. But soon after the Mayor had issued orders to shoot anyone getting out of hand an agreement was easily reached.” University of Washington’s IWW History Project documents two IWW actions in Brawley between 1905 and 1920 neither of which match DeMoulin’s description; nor does the event appear in newspapers. However “Captain” William Stanley was in the area serving as the secretary of the I.W.W.’s chapter in the Imperial Valley. In 1911 Stanley was killed in an early battle of the Mexican Revolution assisting Mexican Liberal Party fighters in occupying Mexicali. DeMoulin claims to have traveled with several others to watch the fighting that would end the occupation: “It was suddenly discovered one morning that Captain Stanley and his I.W.W.’s had disappeared during the night and word had gotten around they had settled in Mexicalo sic a Mexican border town and were so strong in number they overpowered the police pillaged the shops and stores defying the Mexican Government by taking over complete possession of Mexicalo. However after putting up with this condition for several months the Mexican Government sent in about 500 Infantrymen with orders to get rid of them immediately under any condition. . Stanley’s men had made a large opening in the river bank to a depth of about five feet which led through to the bank facing south. From this vantage point his men could fire their muskets when the Mexicans advanced towards them and soon took to their heels when Stanley’s men began firing. . Several of us had driven down to sic Brawley to witness the fighting and bullets had been spattered everywhere. Many of the people never thinking of danger stood out in the open so as not to miss what was going on but I was glad to stay in the back of the adobes at least where one was protected from stray bullets. And having heard rumors of their retreating possibly the next day which was Sunday we drove down again but all was quiet and we met with no resistance. Many of the men were swimming and others were entertaining their wives and families in one way or another. We didn’t stay too long on that trip as one never knew what might happen. But it wasn’t long before they disappeared from Mexicalo entirely for which everyone was most grateful and happy.” DeMoulin is none too fond of Mexican workers either describing how the 1928 construction of a primitive border wall “didn’t stop the wetbacks . from swimming across” and complaining that “regardless of having no sense nor education many were hired and the employers would hide them in groves because if they were arrested it would cost $160.00 including court and attorney fees to have each one returned to Mexico.” DeMoulin’s other targets for racial abuse include “a couple of crooked ‘Jewish Kikes’” who were “certainly professionals when it came to putting the money in their pockets” and several Black men who he claims steal from him. DeMoulin credits himself with bringing grapefruit production to the Imperial Valley and describes a scam by the area’s real estate agents to unload inferior farmland onto unsuspecting investors. He recounts his company making leather “‘Red Men’s’ costumes” for a “Chief Gray Eagle” in Oklahoma whose “squaws wouldn’t work for him any more.” Of interest to historians of the Imperial Valley’s development and especially of labor relations in the agriculture industry. unknown
réf. 8076Single sheet exhibition invitation torn into ca. two dozen pieces. Amsterdam: Pieter Brattinga Gallery 1981. One of Ulises Carrión’s rarest mail art projects with the original mailed envelope sent to the collector Tjeerd Deelstra b. 1937. As the artist intended explained below a small torn portion is not present. “In 1981 when the Print Gallery Pieter Brattinga invited Carrión to exhibit his work there Carrión thought of a response project in which he instructed participants to reconstruct in any way they desired the bottom half of an invitation which had been shredded. They were then to sign it and mail it back to the gallery. The lower section of the invitation included a definition of mail art which the artist had torn up and from which he had then removed a small fragment. This way the definition of mail art could never be reconstructed and the instruction given by the artist was impossible to accomplish. The project resulted in 243 responses in all sorts of formats; not only intervened letters but also objects. By making participants reconstruct the invitation the project had a cyclical component that was emphasized by having the word ‘feedback’ in its title. In this way Feedback Pieces takes one step further Carrión’s intentions to reformulate not only the artwork but also the communication system through which it travels.”–Aimé Iglesias Lukin “King Kong Archives: Ulises Carrión on Mail and Art” in Ulises Carrión: The Big Monster 2019 pp. 11-13 pictured.

réf. 415194Unbound. Near Fine. One legal folio folded at the top to make four pages. Old folds as filed soiling and small tears at the extremities of the folds very good or better. A certified handwritten copy prepared in March 1885 shortly before Grant's death of an 1880 contract between Grant and Lewis B. Brown of New York City. Signed by various clerks with one seal but NOT SIGNED BY GRANT. The document gives Grant ".forever a right of way to the Atlantic Ocean from Seabrook now Ocean Avenue over and upon the lot. and the privilege to erect a bathing house of moderate size upon the Shore of said Ocean. ." Presumably the "bathing house" was what we'd call a cabana. The document has been docketed and stamped in 1887 two years after Grant's death. Grant's shore house served as the Summer White House during his two terms from 1869-1877 obviously this right-of-way was issued after his term was over. unknown
1981réf. 509897Houghton Mifflin 1981. First Edition. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. FINE/NEAR FINE. SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Elytis on half-title 'For Stathis and Ralph' in GREEK. First English Edition First Printing. 74pp. Orange speckled paper over boards with blue-gilt lettering to front cover backed in blue finished cloth with silver-gilt spine lettering red endpapers. An exceedingly clean and crisp copy. Dust jacket has some trivial rubbing to head and tail of spine entirely crisp and bright otherwise. Ralph Sylvester and Stathis Orphanos were publishers of the fine-press publishing company 'Sylvester & Orphanos.' Stathis was a noted photographer and born of Greek parents maintaining a residence on the island of Samos throughout his life. First published in Greece in 1978 the year before Elytis was awarded the Nobel Prize Maria Nefeli was a stark departure from the earlier work that had won him renown as the greatest Greek poet of his generation. Its novelty gave many early readers pause but 'despite the initial reservations voiced by some critics Maria Nefeli came to be regarded as the summa of Elytis's later writings.' Poetry Foundation.
