1826pp. [4], 115. Deckle edged. 24mo. 160 mm. Foxed. Disbound, but with the original front board and printed spine title present. Issued around the 50th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, this unusual and scarce guide to the social life and customs of Philadelphia (then the second most populous city in the U.S.) covers a wide territory with a keen eye. Lawyers, doctors, professors, popular fashions, social leaders and climbers, Utopians, etc. are examined. The Wistar Parties are named for Caspar Wistar (1761-1818) a famous physician and anatomist. It was his habit to throw open his house once every week in the winter, and at these gatherings students, citizens, scientists, and travelers met and discussed subjects of interest. These assemblies, celebrated in the annals of Philadelphia under the title of Wistar parties (or balls), were continued long after his death by other residents of that city. Very scarce and interesting. PA29
