1991PLEASE NOTE: This copy is *not* signed, despite what you may read elswhere in this description. 551 pages including index, bibliography, references and black and white photographs. Tells us of the Prohibition years - how Sam and his brothers kept one step ahead of the law - and paints an entertaining portrait of the romantic era of bootlegging. Sam emerges himself as a larger-than-life character: irascible, authoritarian, volcanic, iron-willed - as well as a loving father and loving husband. A seductive portrayal of a Canadian legend. Wonderful unmarked copy with only faint signs of handling. Several drops of light-beige staining to top edge. Book

One small section at left margin torn away but present affecting the initial words of several lines. Previously folded with interior separation and closed tear along central vertical fold. Wax remnants at left edge from an ill-conceived attempt at preservation. Contemporary ink signatures. Light toning and dust soiling. A very rare and early prohibition emanating from the Archdiocese of Puebla during the early-18th century concerning the production and sales of strong liquor in Mexico. In this broadside dated July 28 1710 Bishop Pedro Nogales Davila of Puebla notes the increase in disorderly behavior lawbreaking and criminal activity in the town that had coincided with the increase in production of alcoholic beverages such as Aguardiente Tepache and Guarapo. As such he adds the penalty of excommunication to the earthly laws against the production and sale of such drinks stating: "Mandamos que ninguna persona de qualquier estado calidad condicion ó preheminencia que sea no haga venda si consienta hacer ni vendar dichas bebidas de Aguardiente de la tierra; Tepache; Guarapo y Vingui que se favrican y confecionan de Miel ò zumo de cañas de mais cevada podrida y de los zumos mayormente acidos de las frutas. Y asi mismos prohibimos debajo de las mismas penas otras qualesquier bebidas que se hagan fabriquen y confecionen de simples è ingredientes fermejantes à los expressados y que puedan ocacionar los efectos referidos con pretexto motivo ni causa alguna con apercevimiento que declararemos y mandaremos declarar y publicar por incursos en dichas penas de Excomunion mayor y pecunaria à los que contrabinieren à ello ademas de proceder contra ellos por todo rigor de derecho." In need of some conservation but an extremely rare and early example of printed restrictions on alcohol production in provincial Colonial Mexico.
