1808réf. List2316Hartford: Hudson and Goodwin 1808. Letterpress broadside measuring 13 x 7 ¾ inches. Some slight toning near fine overall. Fine. A broadside announcing the candidates for the United States House of Representatives a list which includes Noah Webster. Webster received 212 votes in the preliminary election in May enough to get him a spot on the ballot but lost in the general election in a generally difficult time for Federalist politicians. Webster experienced a religious conversion during this period after being a not particularly devout Congregationalist earlier in his life and embraced the church completely perhaps due to the death of his infant son in 1806. Webster would run again for U.S. Representative in 1810 1812 and 1816 losing each time and eventually abandoned politics his last office held being in the Connecticut House of Representatives ending in 1807 shortly before his first campaign for national office. We find no record of this broadside in OCLC or other ephemera relating to Webster's political career in Connecticut in the trade. The collected acts from this session were published in octavo format but we find no other record of this broadside printing. Hudson and Goodwin unknown books

1820réf. 55522New York: Printed by G.L. Birch & Co. 1820. Essays by Mordecai Noah An interesting work on saving and thrift by a consequential American diplomat. Most of the essays blame poverty and bankruptcy on moral faults such as reckless spending and devotion to fashion. Among the examples of moral failings Noah offers are rowdy teens at a late-night oyster house and Wall Street wives bidding recklessly at a silverware auction. Mordecai Noah 1785-1851 was U.S. Consul in Tunis during the Barbary Wars and as such was responsible for freeing American seamen. Noah was notable as one of the first Jewish Americans to hold an important diplomatic post and was ultimately removed from office for anti-Semitic reasons. He was editor of the National Advocate in New York for over a decade beginning in 1817. 16mo. Modern paper-covered boards leather label. Leaves a bit tanned else very good. SHOEMAKER 2557.

1846réf. 2210160Vignette title and 15 hand coloured lithograph plates heightened with gum-arabic; lightly foxed in places and three plates with repairs to tears in lower margin; original publisher's glazed pictorial boards the upper board reproducing the title-page in uncoloured state and little rubbed and chipped to extremities and with loss to foot of spine nevertheless still a very appealing copy. Uncommon first edition and the more desirable coloured version of this humorous French view of British eccentricities. Of this seemingly endless subject Noé gives full vent to the ridiculous ways and customs of the British. The English Scots and Irish all have fun poked at them with stock characters of English yeomen in smocks Irishmen in rags wielding shillelagh clearly a reference to the famine then raging in Ireland and Scots with tammies and tartan plaid. Each plate is subjoined with a title and humorous descriptive text:=- 'Une femme bien attachée;' 'Le Quaker;' 'Le Recruteur;' 'Visite au Musée;' 'Mariage d'inclination;' 'Les Hauts grades;' 'Philanthropie. Bien entendue' 'Les Boxeurs;' 'l'Écossais;' 'Un Costume national;' 'Baragouin Britannique;' 'In the Stocks;' 'Le Péage du turn-pike;' 'L'Invalide de Chelsea;' and 'Smithfied Market.'. The prolific French illustrator Amédée de Noé 1819-1879 produced a number of similar themed works including an idiosyncratic look at the Great Exhibition of 1851 and a series of pamphlets depicting French life dating from the late 1860's. Noé who used the nom de plume Cham i.e Ham the son of Noah was said to have an idea a day contributing much of his best work like Daumier to the Le Charivari. OCLC lists copies at the V&A Getty UCLA Texas and the Morgan all curiously mis-dated to 1870 and unascribed to Noé; and a copy at Fribourg. Chez Aubert & Cie.
