1837réf. 370450New York 1837. First edition. 16pp. 8vo. Original printed yellow wrappers repairs to small chips and separation at fold. Provenance: Thomas W. Streeter booklabel on inner rear wrapper pencil notes on front wrapper and first page of text. First edition. 16pp. 8vo. Comprising 1.4 million acres of land on the Gulf of Mexico between the Apalachicola and Wakulla Rivers in West Florida the Forbes land grant was ceded by the Seminoles and Lower Creeks to John Forbes & Company in payment for debts. With trade with Native Americans unprofitable during the War of 1812 Forbes sold the claim. The treaty transferring Florida to the United States did not go into effect until 1821 and private title under Spanish land grants with the territory was questionable. Decades of lawsuits ensued going as high as the Supreme Court. After the resolution of claims the title was reorganized as the Apalachiocola Land Company in 1835. The present report by the President of the Board of Directors of the New York-based company describes the geography of the region and outlines the plan for its division into lots for dwellings and businesses. The report summarizes the surveys of the region and describes the land and its resources and flora. Sabin calls for a map in this report although Servies does not note one. However the text references a map on page 7 which was likely not issued with all copies. The development of the land was not successful and the company eventually folded. "As an object of speculation the Forbes Purchase not only originated in a chaotic era but was hampered for many years by uncertain title to the land. Its development was also hindered by a lack of good agricultural land as well as by competition from the United States itself which was selling new lands in the American West at the same time the Apalachicola Land Company was getting started" Upchurch. This Streeter copy is the only example appearing in auction records and the only one we can trace in the market. Streeter purchased it from Rosenbach in 1936 for $50 and it was acquired at the Streeter sale for $65 by dealer and former Rosenbach employee John Fleming. It was eventually acquired by the collector Jay Kislak. Servies 2010; Streeter sale 1240 this copy; Sabin 5878; American Imprints 43274. See John C.
