1852Best.-Nr. 183532Sheffield: 1852. No Vote No Tax A Victorian silver cake basket seized in lieu of taxes. Turquand belonged to the Tax Resistance League TRL and in May 1912 refused to pay her house duty as a protest against women's disenfranchisement. In due course this family heirloom was confiscated by a bailiff. Turquand reclaimed it at auction after giving a speech on the urgency of women's suffrage. Lizzie Emma Turquand 1857-1943 was a member of multiple women's suffrage organizations in addition to the TRL and worked as a secretary and a teacher. She sent a letter to the Income Tax Offices explaining her refusal to pay her taxes which concluded "to force women out of the their earnings to pay salaries to Cabinet Ministers and M.P.'s to legislate for men who through the ballot box command attention and consideration is to me such gross injustice that I offer no apology for my action". The ensuing seizure of the basket was "formal but friendly" and the bailiff acted with "forbearance and politeness" Norwood News p. 5. The TRL seized the opportunity of the auction to promote their cause and on 14 May arrived at the auction house in large numbers bearing banners and placards. Although their presence in the auction room was unexpected the auctioneers dealers and other attendants treated them with good humour. The auctioneer permitted Turquand to give a speech on her decision to resist taxation; her remarks were met with cheers and a chorus of "For she's a jolly good fellow". The usual attendees declined to bid for the basket so that it could be purchased by a fellow member of the TRL. Turquand thanked the auctioneer for his kind manner and commented that similar sales all over the country were being met with the same "courteous treatment and sympathy" Norwood News p. 5. Turquand was reunited with the basket following the auction and continued to resist taxation which resulted in a similar confiscation and demonstration the following year. Items which so vividly represent the efforts of the Tax Resistance League to publicise the mantra "No Vote No Tax" are unusual in both commerce and institutions. The London Museum holds a comparable example: a gold bracelet seized in lieu of tax from the suffragette Edith How-Martyn. Provenance: from the collection of the suffrage historian Elizabeth Crawford. Sterling silver bowl with handle 253 x 95 mm by Henry Wilkinson elaborately fluted and embellished in ornate floral design later engravings in the centre "Sold for King's Taxes 1912 Woman Suffrage" and "L. E. Turquand 1913". A few spots of scraping and discolouration residue of polish in grooves of floral design overall bright and clean barely tarnished: in very good condition.

1984Best.-Nr. 238831984. Mexican agrarian revolution and Indigenous resistance periodical archive 1984 to 1994 tracing the place of Emiliano Zapata and Indigenous political struggles within American anarchist publishing from the Reagan era through the 1994 Zapatista uprising in Chiapas. Two issues of Southern California's A New Iron Column place Mexican revolutionary history and contemporary Indigenous activism within an international anti-authoritarian program including an issue whose cover memorializes Zapata beneath the slogan "TIERRA Y LIBERTAD" and identifies him as "Heroic Mexican Revolutionary." A decade later the premiere issue of Minneapolis anarchist newspaper The Blast! responds directly to the January 1994 uprising of the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional leading its front page with "ZAPATA'S REVENGE" and "CHIAPAS: A PEOPLE BORN DIGNIFIED & REBELLIOUS." The sequence documents how Zapata's political image the language of land and liberty and struggles over Indigenous autonomy circulated through American anarchist print networks before and immediately after the EZLN brought Chiapas into international radical politics. Contemporary accounts identify the Creative Anarchists Networks behind A New Iron Column as active in Native support work while institutional holdings characterize the periodical as containing material on Indigenous struggles. A New Iron Column and The Blast! Southern California and Minneapolis 1984 to 1994. Three issues illustrated throughout in black and white with The Blast! printed in black and blue. 1 Creative Anarchists. A New Iron Guard later A New Iron Column. No. II. Southern California 1984. Published as "A Black Banner publication of the Creative Anarchists of America." The cover depicts the execution of Catalan educator and freethinker Francisco Ferrer after the Barcelona uprising of July 1909 while the contents range across "Chile's Painful Realities" "The Mohawk Indians" Emma Goldman prison politics antiwar writing children's rights and a letter from the Sigma Anarchist Group of Warsaw. The editors describe their project as addressing "the meaning of Anarchy and the logic for advocating it" alongside historical commentary poetry political comics and international correspondence. 2 Creative Anarchists Networks. A New Iron Column. No. IV. Anaheim California 1985. Cover devoted to Emiliano Zapata 1879 to 1919 with the revolutionary leader and armed campesinos above a volcanic landscape and the large inscription "TIERRA Y LIBERTAD." The issue identifies itself as "A BLACK BANNER PUBLICATION OF THE CREATIVE ANARCHISTS NETWORKS" and surrounds the Zapata image with "WAR CRIMES: EL SALVADOR" "IRA POW CAMPAIGN" "A TRIBAL ACCORD" "TERRORIST CIA MANUAL" "MARION LOCKDOWN" and "ANARCHY AND COMMUNISM." Its contents include "Zapata of Mexico" "Punk and Anarchy in the U.K." "Revolution" "Irish Republican P.O.W. Campaign" "War Crimes In El Salvador" "Terrorist C.I.A. Manual" "Anarchy and Communism" and "A Struggle." A contemporary Fifth Estate notice records that the publication changed its name from New Iron Guard to Iron Column after editors were alerted to the name's association with the Romanian fascist Iron Guard explicitly linking the replacement name to the anarchist Iron Column of the Spanish Revolution. 3 Agitator Index Collective. The Blast! Premiere Issue. Minneapolis Minnesota April/May 1994. Front page dominated by "ZAPATA'S REVENGE" and "CHIAPAS: A PEOPLE BORN DIGNIFIED & REBELLIOUS" alongside articles on the Minnesota Eight anarchism and Black revolution the federal crime bill Twin Cities hip hop and population politics. Inside the paper identifies itself as a nonprofit political newspaper produced by the Agitator Index Collective and carries Kieran Knutson's "The State of Minnesota Vs. The Anti Racist Movement." The Agitator Index Collective belonged to the Love and Rage Revolutionary Anarchist Federation and The Blast! was founded by former members of the Profane Existence Collective. Its first issue appeared in 1994 with coverage of the Zapatista uprising while subsequent issues continued reporting on the EZLN and Chiapas. A New Iron Column invokes Zapata during the 1980s alongside contemporary Native struggles Central American war political prisoners and international anarchist movements treating the Mexican Revolution as part of a continuing politics of land state power and anti-authoritarian resistance. The 1994 Blast! appeared only months after the EZLN emerged publicly on January 1 in Chiapas where its rebellion centered Indigenous communities and demands concerning land political participation autonomy and the consequences of Mexican state policy. Its headline "ZAPATA'S REVENGE" explicitly joins the contemporary rebellion to the memory of Zapata while "A PEOPLE BORN DIGNIFIED & REBELLIOUS" frames Chiapas through the political agency of its population rather than as a distant revolutionary spectacle. The Blast! continued covering the EZLN after this premiere issue confirming that Chiapas formed part of the newspaper's sustained international reporting rather than a single topical headline. Some toning and handling wear with folds and minor edge wear visible; A New Iron Column issues staple bound The Blast! folded as issued. Overall very good condition. A three issue record of Zapata's political afterlife in United States anarchist publishing moving from 1980s representations of Mexican agrarian revolution and Indigenous resistance to an immediate anarchist response to the Indigenous led Zapatista uprising in Chiapas in 1994. unknown

1944Best.-Nr. 43339Nyu-York: Farlag 1944. 1st American Edition. Paper Wrappers 8vo 61 pages. Includes illustrations. 22 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates as "A Year in Treblinka." Translation of Rok w Treblince. Jankiel Yankel Yaakov or Jacob Wiernik 1889-1972 was a "Polish-Jewish Holocaust survivor who was an influential figure in the Treblinka extermination camp resistance. He had been forced to work as a Sonderkommando slave worker there where an estimated 700000-900000 people mostly Jews were murdered. After his escape during the uprising of 2 August 1943 Wiernik reached Warsaw and joined the resistance. He also wrote a clandestine account of the camp's operation A Year in Treblinka which was copied and translated for printing in London and the US in English and Yiddish. Following World War II Wiernik testified at Ludwig Fischer's trial in 1947. He left Poland emigrating first to Sweden and then to the new state of Israel. In 1961 he testified at Adolf Eichmann's trial in Jerusalem. He returned to Poland in 1964 to attend the opening of the Treblinka Memorial. Wiernik died in Israel in 1972 at the age of 83. On his arrival at Treblinka aboard the Holocaust train from Warsaw Wiernik was selected to work as a Sonderkommando; otherwise he would have been immediately gassed and killed that day. Wiernik's first job with the Sonderkommando required him to drag corpses from the gas chambers to mass graves. He was traumatized by his experiences and later wrote in his book: 'It often happened that an arm or a leg fell off when we tied straps around them in order to drag the bodies away.' He remembered the horrors of the enormous pyres where '10000 to 12000 corpses were cremated at one time.' He was also encouraged by occasional scenes of brave resistance. In chapter 8 he describes seeing a naked woman escape the clutches of the guards and leap over a three-metre high barbed wire fence unscathed. When accosted by a Ukrainian guard Trawniki on the other side she wrestled his machine gun out of his grasp killed the guard and shot another guard before being killed herself. When the SS recognized that Wiernik was a professional carpenter they put him to work constructing various camp structures including additional gas chambers. Given his skills Wiernik was not subjected to the same treatment as others and no longer had to handle dead bodies. He attributed his survival to being able to build structures needed in the camp. Given the shortage of skilled construction workers accustomed to the killing process Wiernik moved between the two divisions of the camp frequently. As a result he became an important contact between the camp zones when the revolt was being planned. Wiernik escaped Treblinka during the revolt of the prisoners on 'a sizzling hot day' of August 2 1943. A shot fired into the air signaled that the revolt was on. Wiernik wrote that he 'grabbed some guns' and after spotting an opportunity to make a break for the woods an axe. A camp guard in pursuit shot Wiernik with a pistol but the bullet did not penetrate his skin. Wiernik said he turned around and killed his pursuer with the axe. Wiernik continued to Warsaw hiding in a freight train. Wiernik assumed the name of Jan Smarzynski. He made contact with members of the Jewish underground working in the 'Aryan' part of Warsaw. They realized he was a valuable eyewitness of the extermination process in Treblinka. He was persuaded in late 1943 to write A Year in Treblinka in spite of his initial reluctance Wiernik had little education and was not a skilled writer. He took part in the 1944 Warsaw Uprising fighting in the Armia Ludowa. After the end of World War II Wiernik initially remained in Poland in 1947 he testified in the trial of Ludwig Fischer. He emigrated to Sweden and afterwards to the newly founded state of Israel. There in the 1950s Wiernik built a model of the Treblinka camp. It is displayed in the Ghetto Fighters' House museum in Israel. In 1961 Wiernik testified in the Eichmann trial in Israel. Jankiel Wiernik published Rok w Treblince A Year in Treblinka in 1944 as a clandestine booklet. It was printed through the efforts of the Jewish National Committee Zydowski Komitet Narodowy ZKN Bund underground organizations of the remnants of Polish Jews and the Polish Council to Aid Jews Zegota by means of an underground printer organized by Ferdynand Arczynski. The circulation was estimated by Wladyslaw Bartoszewski as 2000 copies. It was sent through Polish underground channels to London and translated into English and Yiddish. It was also printed in the US by American representatives of the General Jewish Workers Union of Poland ie. this copy. The book recounts his experiences in the Treblinka extermination camp between 1942 and 1943" Wikipedia. SUBJECTS: Holocaust Jewish 1939-1945 -- Poland. Jews -- Poland -- Biography. OCLC: 12246244.
