[Pennsylvania Magazine]: [Paine, Thomas, editor]:ABAA

THE PENNSYLVANIA MAGAZINE: OR AMERICAN MONTHLY MUSEUM. MDCCLXXV. VOLUME 1.

1775Best.-Nr. 58141Philadelphia: Robert Aitken 1775. Thomas Paine's Real Job While Writing Common Sense with Highly Important Plates and Maps Including the View of the Battle of Bunker Hill A run of the first twelve issues and the 1775 supplement of The Pennsylvania Magazine. the only magazine issued in the American colonies for most of the crucial year of 1775. This is among the most important American Revolutionary-era publications for two primary reasons. First it was edited from February 1775 until May 1776 all but the first and the last two numbers by the famous radical Thomas Paine and his regular occupation at the time he wrote Common Sense was as its editor. Secondly it contains some of the most significant maps produced in America during the Revolution including battle plans that became prototypes for oft-reproduced illustrations. Only a small handful of similar maps were produced in America during the Revolution. Ristow describes three of the maps and plans numbers 8 9 and 10 below as "the earliest revolutionary war maps printed in America." The present collection contains the first twelve of the total nineteen issues of The Pennsylvania Magazine a complete run for the year 1775. This volume contains a view of surpassing importance "A Correct View of the Late Battle at Charleston June 17th 1775" depicting the Battle of Bunker's Hill. This view virtually never found with the magazine and of extraordinary rarity is arguably the most important American-produced visual image of the Revolutionary conflict after Revere's famous Boston Massacre plate. It is based on a drawing by Bernard Romans an engineer and mapmaker best known for his book on Florida who observed the conflict from Breed's Hill. The plate crudely but effectively engraved by Robert Aitken shows the American and British lines joined in conflict in the upper right part of the plate while in the right foreground Americans load a cannon near a blockhouse. Boston harbor is in the right foreground while the city in the upper right is bombarded by British naval vessels. Since the plate accompanied the September issue of the magazine it must have been made by early September 1775. Romans also issued the view on a larger scale with a slightly different title but almost identical in design. Whether it preceded or followed the Aitken version and even where it was produced is unclear. Deák quotes a New York newspaper advertisement of September 25 stating that the work would be available in ten days. Since we know Romans was publishing a book with engraved illustrations in New York at this time A Concise Natural History of East and West Florida with three engraved maps and six engraved plates it would be logical to think that the print was done in New York and postdated the Aitken print. But Fowble in describing the London reprint of the engraving in the Winterthur collection speculates that Romans and Aitken collaborated on the two versions and that Nicholas Brown of Philadelphia produced them. He cites a September 30 1775 Philadelphia newspaper ad offering both for sale as evidence. In the end priority cannot be determined but the larger version is so rare we can only locate the New York Public Library copy that it is a moot point. The Pennsylvania Magazine. was conceived and founded by the Revolutionary printer Robert Aitken best known for his work as a printer for the Continental Congress. Aitken launched the periodical himself but soon found it too much work and hired Paine as editor at £50 a year. Paine had only arrived in America a few months before in December 1774. He quickly became the major contributor as well as editor sometimes writing under the initials "A.B." and sometimes with no by-line. "These initials he affixed to descriptions of mechanical devices anecdotes Addisonian essays argumentative papers and poems in some variety.the most imaginative and literary of the pieces have never been reprinted. "Published on the eve of the American Revolution and edited by one of the leading Revolutionary publicists The Pennsylvania Magazine is of course of paramount political interest.in December the magazine published 'Reflections on the Duty of Princes' in which sovereigns are sharply warned against the exercise of arbitrary power. This is signed 'A.' and is followed by an oratorical passage 'On Liberty' signed 'Philo-Libertas.' Both are in the accents of Paine." - Mott. Mott also particularly mentions Paine's famous "Liberty Tree" article in July 1775 Phillis Wheatley's verses to Washington of April 1776 that issue not present in this volume and Paine's article on the abuse of texts in the supplementary number for 1775. Paine also contributed much that was not political and there are many articles on current events in that fast-moving period which may or may not come from his pen; however writing for this magazine often it was said under the influence of drink was Paine's primary work during this period and all told a substantial part of each issue sprang from his genius until his break with Aitken in May 1776. The magazine chronicles month by month Paine's sentiments before writing Common Sense which was published in mid-January 1776. Many of the important maps and illustrations in The Pennsylvania Magazine were engraved by the publisher Robert Aitken. The plates in the present volume are as follow: 1 "A New Electrical Machine" in the January 1775 issue. A detailed illustration of a European-invented device for studying electricity. 2 "Doctor Goldsmith" in the January 1775 issue. A portrait of Oliver Goldsmith. 3 "A New Threshing Instrument" in the February 1775 issue. 4 "General Wolfe. A new Song Engraved for the Pennsylvania Magazine" in the March 1775 issue. A folding plate of sheet music with lyrics on the death of General Wolfe in the French and Indian War. 5 "A New Invented Machine for Spinning of Wool or Cotton" in the April 1775 issue. A quite detailed illustration drawn and engraved by C. Tully the inventor of the machine. The plate is torn in the lower margin with a small bit of loss. 6 "Front View of a Frame House resembling Brick" in the April 1775 issue. A fine early American architectural illustration. 7 "Description of a new invented Machine for deepning sic and cleansing Docks &c." in the May 1775 issue. This folding plate itself has no caption but is thus described in the text. An early Philadelphia invention of a dredger.

This is Francis Bailey who operated as a printer in Philadelphia until 1777 and then moved to Lancaster Pennsylvania. In the chaos that ensued after the English seized Philadelphia in the fall of 1777 and the Continental Congress retreated to York Pennsylvania Bailey became for a time the official printer to both the Congress and the government of Pennsylvania. As such he printed the first edition of the Articles of Confederation in Lancaster in November 1777 and a number of important Revolutionary decrees. Lengthy runs of The Pennsylvania Magazine especially with the scarce illustrations and plans are virtually unknown in the marketplace. A major Thomas Paine piece and of great importance for his work and the American situation on the eve of the Revolution as well as for the graphics and maps bound in. Contemporary calf rebacked preserving part of the original spine. Boards rubbed neatly repaired at corners "F. Bailey's" stamped in blind on each board. With the inscription in a neat contemporary hand "Ready money for clean Linen Rags By the Printer hereof" on the front flyleaf. Bookplate of the Library Company of Philadelphia with early discard stamp on front pastedown. Light foxing soiling and tanning to text. Half of the plan of Charlestown lacking.

The two young men both fans of the Modernist movement turned the modestly successful periodical into an influential avant-garde literary journal publishing the first U.S. appearance of Yeats' "Second Coming" and Eliot's "The Waste Land" and bringing a host of new voices--Djuna Barnes Mina Loy James Joyce Marcel Proust and William Carlos Williams among them--to American audiences. The magazine's run as a major Modernist journal continued for just 10 years with poet Marianne Moore taking over as editor in 1925 but its impact on American letters was long lasting. Authors whose early careers were promoted by "The Dial" became lions of 20th century literature familiar to every schoolchild in the U.S. Our very well-preserved issue comes from the collection of Laure-Anne Bosselaar b. 1943 and her husband Kurt Brown 1944-2013. Bosselaar is a Belgian-American poet translator and editor who has published numerous works of poetry in multiple languages including five collections of her own works. She has received various prizes and recognitions Pushcart Isabella Gardner Breadloaf and was named Poet Laureate of Santa Barbara in 2019. Sometimes publishing jointly with Bosselaar Brown was also a prolific poet and editor of anthologies as well as the founder and first director of the Aspen Writer's Conference playing a pivotal role in shaping its early vision and establishing Aspen as a literary center.
