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.

1910réf. 57046Lynchburg Va.: J.P. Bell Company Incorporated ca. 1910. Thoroughly Illustrated Florida Promotional Pamphlet A rare promotional booklet for Marion County Florida around the turn of the 20th century primarily focused on attracting farmers. The county's slogan "Good as the Best for Fruit and Vegetables/ Better than the Rest for 'Hog and Hominy'" adorns the first page. The final page drives home the point stressing that "This county contains good land within its boundaries.Her resources are unlimited; the industrious farmer can succeed." The pamphlet itself is mostly made up of photographic illustrations with occasional text about the climate schools and other amenities in the region. The illustrations show homes farms street scenes flora golf clubs and other recreations and more. An insert at the end comprises two postcards to be detached and mailed to the Marion County Board of Trade for further information. Marion County was greatly affected by the Great Freeze of 1894-5 which saw Orlando reach its all-time record low temperature of eighteen degrees Fahrenheit and wreaked havoc on Florida's citrus crop. Land that had cost as much as $1000 per acre in the early 1890s dropped dramatically in value and even at the time of this pamphlet's printing per-acre prices in Marion County were advertised in a range from ten to a hundred dollars. This pamphlet is quite rare; OCLC locates only two institutional copies at Duke University and the State Library of Florida. Oblong octavo. Original pictorial wrappers stapled. Minor wear. Near fine.
