1595réf. 8359Antwerp Plantin-Moretus 1595. Copper engraving 37 x 50 cms black and white small hole at centrefold Latin text to verso. Shirley notes that the map is a general improvement on the previous Mercator-Ortelius outline and draws attention to a detail which vividly suggests the personal involvement of the map-maker Welsh antiquary Humphrey Lluyd: the Caernarvon peninsula near Lluyds home town of Denbigh is badly distorted but it has been suggested very reasonably that this may have been due to Lluyds attempt to sketch this in by eye from the nearby mountains. Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum is generally considered the first modern atlas of the world originally published in 1570. Ortelius gathered and selected the best available cartographic knowledge and presented it in a single volume duly credited and finely engraved in a consistent style with explanatory text. The Theatrum was very decorative and hugely popular amongst the wealthy and educated running into over forty editions in Latin and the major European languages. Shirley British Isles 185.

Outstanding facsimile reproductions of the full run of this newspaper all with large and ornate pictorial masthead "which was issued" as introductory leaflet notes in subtitle "to further the candidacy of Stephen A. Douglas for the Presidency of the United States." Begins with number 1 dated June 30 1860 through number 20 dated November 17 1860.

1864réf. 62679Philadelphia: Published by Mason & Co. 1864. Singing for Lincoln in '64 A pocket songster printed to support Lincoln's reelection campaign in 1864 featuring a rather youthful portrait of the president on the front wrapper and twelve spirited pro-Union songs. The titles largely military in theme include such works as "Give us Noble Leaders" "The Veteran Volunteer" "Cast Your Votes for Abraham" "For Lincoln or McClellan you'll be called on to decide/ The one to save the union the other to divide" and "We are Coming Father Abraham 600000 More." The advertisements on the rear wrapper encourage readers to purchase a wide variety of Lincoln campaign badges emblems pins and photographs from the publishers. Despite Lincoln's overwhelming electoral victory in 1864 the race was rather close in Pennsylvania where this was printed – Lincoln took Philadelphia County by a scant few percent and actually failed to secure a majority in neighboring Montgomery and Bucks counties. 16mo.
