1863réf. BK0082Monticello Florida 1863. Autograph letter signed 2 pp. 7 x 9 inches addressed to the Honorable E. J. Vann Madison Florida. Stampless folded letter with fair circular "MONTICELLO FLA." January 23 datestamp and bold "PAID / 10" handstamp. Back flap removed with a small paper repair at the upper left; otherwise very good. A wartime business letter from James B. Jones of Monticello to E. J. Vann in Madison concerning accounts connected with the estate of D. B. Bird and the collection of local debts. The first portion belongs to the ordinary legal and commercial life of Middle Florida with references to unpaid accounts estate administration and the firms of Denham & Palmer and Johnson Bird & Co. Jones then turns abruptly from bookkeeping to Confederate destiny offering an elaborate blessing. After thanking Vann for his wishes for Jones's health and spirits he writes: "May your shadow become more enlarged and may you live to see the Southern Confederacy one of the most powerful & prosperous nations of the earth . In short may you live to see her Eagle if she even has one with his wings extended with one wing in the Pacific Ocean the other at same time in the Atlantic and his tail in the Gulf of Mexico south of Cuba & at the same time drink from the waters of the Ohio." The letter captures both the routine world of wartime Florida-estate claims merchants lawyers and unpaid accounts-and one Floridian's Confederate imaginary. . unknown books

1855réf. List3682Philadelphia: Edward L. Walker 142 Chestnut St. above 6th 1855. Folio sheet music pictorial lithographed cover approximately 13.5 × 10.5 inches. Light edge wear and minor toning; very good with a strong impression of the cover illustration. An antebellum piano dance reflecting the plantation imagery that circulated widely in mid-nineteenth-century American popular music. “Cuba Plantation Dance” was composed by Chas. H. Wilson a little-documented composer whose name appears chiefly in connection with this work and issued in Philadelphia during the early 1850s by Edward L. Walker the predecessor firm to the major publishing house Lee & Walker. A copy is recorded in the Levy Collection at Johns Hopkins which dates the publication to 1855. The cover presents a stylized plantation landscape framed by tall stalks of sugar cane with a small central vignette of a dancing Black figure. The use of Cuban plantation imagery reflects contemporary American fascination with the Caribbean sugar economy and with plantation life beyond the United States. During the 1850s Cuba was one of the largest slave societies in the Atlantic world. By the midcentury the island’s sugar plantations relied on hundreds of thousands of enslaved Africans and the enslaved population of Cuba was estimated at roughly 400000 people in the 1840s–1850s working primarily in the rapidly expanding sugar industry. Although Spain formally agreed to end the Atlantic slave trade in 1820 illegal importations of enslaved Africans into Cuba continued for decades supplying labor for the island’s plantations well into the 1850s. American publishers frequently borrowed such imagery for plantation-themed dance music marketed to the parlor trade. Pieces labeled “plantation dances” or “Ethiopian dances” formed part of the broader culture of minstrel and plantation entertainment. The title page bears a dedication to “Miss Arabelle Conrad” typical of mid-century sheet music addressed to amateur pianists. Along with the aforementioned copy in the Levy collection we find copies at Michigan and Temple. Edward L. Walker, 142 Chestnut St., above 6th unknown books

1890réf. 5524Paris: Pellerin & Cie C1890. First edition. Three beautiful large format sheets making a steam train and wagon carriage together with the tender. These are sheets 159 160 and 161. Scarce individually the group of three together are rare. These prints are cardboard constructions or models on which a pattern was printed. These were then hand coloured as stated on the sheet. This pattern must be cut out and then assembled to construct various objects or scenes of daily life. The Imagerie d'Épinal published several series of models to cut out including the "Large Constructions" in 39 x 49 cm format the "Medium Constructions" and the "Small Constructions." From 1880 to 1908 prints depicting architecture costumes boats and various vehicles were produced. During this same period paper theatres or "home theatres" also enjoyed great success. These three examples are in excellent condition with just fractional creasing / bumping to them. Two of the sheets have stronger creases visible to the blank rear of the print - but these are not really visible to the front. A slight darkening to the sheets. A renowned French printing workshop established in Épinal Vosges in 1796 by Jean-Charles Pellerin celebrated for its vibrant popular images. Originating with stencilled paper substitutes for enamelled clock dials it swiftly developed into a principal source of folk art captivating audiences across Europe and beyond. In its early years the Imagerie catered to the rural populace with devotional subjects suited to the illiterate; by the Napoleonic era output embraced heroic epics patriotic broadsides and instructive tableaux executed first in woodblock and subsequently by lithography. At zenith employing upwards of 150 hands it issued millions of sheets for export spawning imitators throughout the Continent. Images meticulously coloured by stencil atop printed outlines perpetuated traditional craft into contemporary times as the sole surviving imagerie worldwide. Acquired by the municipality in early 2026 it preserves an unrivalled archive exceeding 6000 lithographic stones functioning today as a vital museum of vernacular iconography. . Première édition. Trois magnifiques feuilles grand format permettant de réaliser un train à vapeur et un wagon voiture avec son tender. Il s'agit des feuilles 159 160 et 161. Rares individuellement ces trois feuilles sont encore plus rares lorsqu'elles sont réunies. Ces gravures sont des constructions ou des modèles en carton sur lesquels un motif a été imprimé. Elles ont ensuite été coloriées à la main comme indiqué sur la feuille. Ce motif doit être découpé puis assemblé pour construire divers objets ou scènes de la vie quotidienne. L'Imagerie d'Épinal a publié plusieurs séries de modèles à découper notamment les « Grandes constructions » au format 39 x 49 cm les « Constructions moyennes » et les « Petites constructions ». De 1880 à 1908 des gravures représentant des architectures des costumes des bateaux et divers véhicules ont été produites. Au cours de cette même période les théâtres en papier ou « théâtres domestiques » ont également connu un grand succès. Ces trois exemples sont en excellent état avec seulement quelques plis et bosses mineurs. Deux des feuilles présentent des plis plus marqués visibles au dos de l'impression mais ceux-ci ne sont pas vraiment visibles au recto. Les feuilles sont légèrement noircies. Un célèbre atelier d'impression français fondé à Épinal dans les Vosges en 1796 par Jean-Charles Pellerin célèbre pour ses images populaires et vivantes. À l'origine l'atelier produisait des substituts en papier au pochoir pour les cadrans émaillés des horloges mais il est rapidement devenu une source majeure d'art populaire captivant le public à travers l'Europe et au-delà. À ses débuts l'Imagerie s'adressait à la population rurale avec des sujets religieux adaptés aux analphabètes ; à l'époque napoléonienne sa production comprenait des épopées héroïques des affiches patriotiques et des tableaux instructifs réalisés d'abord en gravure sur bois puis en lithographie. À son apogée employant plus de 150 personnes elle a produit des millions de feuilles destinées à l'exportation suscitant de nombreux imitateurs à travers le continent. Les images minutieusement colorées au pochoir sur des contours imprimés ont perpétué l'artisanat traditionnel jusqu'à l'époque contemporaine en tant que seule imagerie survivante dans le monde. Acquise par la municipalité au début de l'année 2026 elle conserve des archives inégalées comprenant plus de 6 000 pierres lithographiques et fonctionne aujourd'hui comme un musée essentiel de l'iconographie vernaculaire.
