1930réf. 35011Circa 1930. 1930. Good. - A black-and-white approximately 3 inch high by 2-1/4 wide portrait has been clipped from a magazine and mounted on a piece of cream-colored paper and then on a gray card 6 inches high by 3-3/4 inches wide. Inscribed and signed on the first mount below the portrait: "To Seymour Halpern / with kindest regards / J. V. Chase / Admiral US Navy". There is a piece out of the lower right edge of the gray card & its bottom left corner is chipped. There is a very small crease to the left margin of the cream mount. Good. This head-and-shoulders portrait of Chase is inscribed to future Congressman Seymour Halpern then a young autograph collector. Rear Admiral Jehu V. Chase 1869-1937 was a career officer in the U.S. Navy. As commander of the USS Minnesota when she was mined in World War I he was awarded the Navy Distinguished Service Medal for his seamanship and leadership in bringing his ship safely to port without loss of life. From September 1930 to September 1931 he was Commander in Chief of the United States Fleet and from April 1932 until his retirement in February 1933.he was Chairman of the General Board. The Queens New York Republican Congressman Seymour Halpern 1913-1997 started his political career as a campaign aide to New York's powerful mayor Fiorella La Guardia and first served in New York's State Senate for 14 years before seeking a seat in the U.S. Congress. In Albany Halpern sponsored 279 bills that became law including measures on schools housing civil rights nutrition and mental health. A Liberal he was something of an anomaly as the lone Republican representative from New York City and generally garnered support from Labor Unions and endorsement from the Liberal Party. Yet he never even considered switching parties as he considered membership in the Republican Party a family tradition and commitment. While he found ample time for his private pursuits including painting and collecting autographs he took his legislative duties very seriously. Of these he was proudest of his co-sponsorship of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and of the original 1965 Medicare legislation. Circa [1930]. unknown

Newsam with tissue guard. Woodcut of Wicaco Church Gloria Dei after. p. 156 opposite title pg. of Charter not listed in Howes. Laid in is 1935 newspaper clipping reprinting the following from the 7 Jan. 1834 edition of the United States Gazette: "The Rev. Jehu Curtis Clay rector of the Swedish Churches in Philadelphia and its vicinity has prepared a small volume Annals of the Swedes on the Delaware. It is exceedingly entertaining because of the anecdotes and facts recorded. Our citizens generally are interested in the old fashioned church of Wecacoe near the Navy Yard where the Reverend author of the Annals before us officiates and most of us remember the venerable Dr. Collin his predecessor of whom a likeness ornaments the little volume." Making this a unique association copy however is a 1-pg. undated 18th-century manuscript fragment on laid paper addressed to Mrs. Maria Norderlind wife of the Rev. Eric Norderlind with an explanatary note by former owner Mr. Stone signed and dated 1890 that the fragment was found among the papers of Geo. Ord Esq. The content of the note by an undetermined author has to do with the writer's feelings that his religious faith may simply be a "monstrous hypocrisy." Clay on p. 123 notes that in the spring of 1757 the Rev. Eric Norderlind was appointed assistant minister to Mr. Parlin and following the latter's death on 22 Dec. of that year was appointed by a 2 Jan. 1758 letter to supply the church during the vacancy which extended until the spring of 1759 when the Rev. Charles Magnus Wrangel was appointed as Parlin's successor. The Charter includes Wicaco Gloria Dei Kingsessing St. James and Upper Merion Christ Church. J. C. Pechin Hardcover
