1776ref. 35321776. NEW JERSEY. LAWS. Acts of the General Assembly of the Province of New-Jersey from the Surrender of the Government to Queen Anne on the 17th Day of April in the Year of Our Lord 1702 to the 14th Day of January 1776 . By Samuel Allinson. Burlington: Isaac Collins 1776. Folio. viii 493 1 6 6 4 4 3 1 15 p. Modern calf-backed marbled boards very skillfully executed in period style. The usual foxing and browning present in all copies occasional minor spotting else a very good desirable copy in a handsome and correct period-style binding. A compilation of all the laws in force in New Jersey in 1776. Though begun several years earlier publication was delayed by Governor William Franklin's constant quarrels with the assembly the outbreak of hostilities and finally as Allinson notes in his preface the inability to obtain sufficient paper ". the Want of which stop'd the Press several Weeks at sundry Times until more could be manufactured." The quality of the paper varied considerably and all copies exhibit differing degrees of foxing and browning from gathering to gathering. There are several contemporary manuscript corrections also present in all copies and probably done in the printer's shop. For a detailed account of the evolution and printing history of Allinson's Laws see Felcone New Jersey Books 2nd edn. 1424 and Felcone Printing in New Jersey 1754-1800 214.

1800ref. 35311800. NEW JERSEY. LAWS. Laws of the State of New Jersey Revised . by William Paterson. New Brunswick: Abraham Blauvelt 1800. Lg. folio. 2 xxi 1 455 33 p. Modern calf-backed marbled boards very skillfully executed in period antique style. The usual minor foxing and spotting but a fine copy in a correct period-style binding. A complete revision and compilation of the laws of New Jersey begun in 1792 while Paterson was governor of the state and completed while he was associate justice of the United States Supreme Court. Consolidating the existing statutory law with the Common Law of England Paterson essentially re-wrote much of the state's law. The work is a monument both to Paterson's extraordinary legal mind and to his remarkable abilty to produce and complete such a complex undertaking while serving successively as governor and Supreme Court justice.

The selection of 150 objects presented chronologically represents highlights from each of the genres including painting sculpture decorative arts photography works on paper furniture metals and ephemera.

In addition to paintings and a small selection of sculpture the museum houses a body of objects that relate to local history including a collection of glass and ceramic works by the American Pottery Company and the Jersey Glass Company. Its industrial collection features advertisements and other ephemera produced by industries based in the area during the nineteenth century. The small but lovely collection of paintings includes a view of downtown New York from Brooklyn by Colin Campbell Cooper a regal portrait of prominent Jersey City citizen Judge Peter Sip by the illustrious portrait duo of Samuel Waldo and William Jewett and a 1986 painting by Helen Miranda Wilson of a bird’s eye view of New York harbor. The collection of contemporary art features imagery by a diverse body of significant artists including Chakaia Booker Larry Fink Leon Golub Komar and Melamid Conrad Marca-Relli Sheila Pepe Naomi Savage Shazia Sikander and Kara Walker.
