A remarkable run of early Virginia imprints. An extraordinary run of the earliest Virginia imprints the most extensive group of material to come on the market in perhaps a century. This remarkable volume contains six Assembly session laws published in Williamsburg between 1734 and 1742 from the press of Virginia's first printer William Parks. The beginnings of printing in Virginia can be traced in a sense to 1682 when William Nuthead went to Jamestown with a press to print the acts of the Assembly; Governor Thomas Culpeper tossed him out and Nuthead left without issuing a single publication. Culpeper's successor Francis Howard banned printing entirely and it was fifty years before another attempt was made. In February 1728 William Parks the official printer to the Maryland Assembly since 1726 seeking to expand his business petitioned the Virginia Assembly for a similar position. Receiving the commission Parks opened an office in Williamsburg in 1730. That year he published what is generally credited as Virginia's first imprint: John Markland's Typographia: an ode to printing a 15pp. paean to Sir William Gooch the governor who had approved the invitation to Parks. This survives in a single copy at the John Carter Brown Library. Indeed the handful of early Virginia imprints prior to 1735 that are not laws only survive in unique copies. Parks moved to Williamsburg himself in 1731 although he would continue to maintain his Annapolis press until 1737. In 1733 he published the first locally printed collection of Virginia laws. The present imprints follow directly after that volume with new legislation issued over the next decade. He was certainly with Benjamin Franklin the most significant and enterprising printer in the American colonies south of Boston in the first half of the 18th century prior to his death in 1750. During this time Parks sometimes quarreled with the Virginia House of Burgesses over fees and articles in his newspaper but always retained the lucrative contract for printing the legislative materials of the colony. The present collection of session laws contains the fourth and final session of the 1727-1734 Assembly all four sessions of the 1735-1740 Assembly and the first session of the 1742-1747 Assembly. The first of the above is significant as it was "the first time the public and private acts of a session were printed in full" Swem the previous session laws including the titles of the private acts only. The acts within these sessions includes those addressing tobacco duties on slaves judicial matters regulating liquor for the encouragement of the College of William and Mary dividing counties relating to Native Americans the raising of the militia for an expedition against the Spanish among other matters. Of particular note is an act within the final session which establishes the town of Richmond on the falls of the James River. All early Virginia imprints are of great rarity. The legislative material was probably printed in editions of several hundred copies at the most. Berg locates eight to ten copies of each of the imprints listed here; in virtually all cases these copies have been held since before the First World War and only a few individual imprints can be traced in sale records. The collection is comprised of: 1 Virginia General Assembly of 1727-1734 fourth session Anno Regni Georgii II .

1781réf. 28962Philadelphia and Lancaster: John Dunlap and Francis Bailey 1781. 18 session laws in one small folio. 12 1/8 x 7 3/4 inches. 71 2 51-177 1 177-417 1 395-432 2 459-488pp. Early twentieth century black morocco spine with raised bands lettered in gilt The extraordinarily rare session laws from the Revolution including the flight to Lancaster. First editions with the exception of the first two parts which are second printings of the so-called "Dunlap Laws" the excessively rare session laws of Pennsylvania passed during the Revolution and printed by John Dunlap and in some instances Francis Bailey. Both the meetings of the Assembly and the printing of the laws themselves were conducted under gravely difficult conditions as witness the displacement of the meeting and printings from Philadelphia to Lancaster when the British occupied the city between September 1777 and June 1778. This collection includes all four of Dunlap and Bailey's Lancaster printings which are the most difficult examples to find of the early Pennsylvania session laws. The onset of the Revolution ushered in an exciting and innovative period in American politics as states made the transition from colonial political systems to independent legislatures. New constitutions were written Pennsylvania's being among the most radical and new classes of men came into political office often displacing entrenched aristocrats and men of capital. The state legislatures functioned as miniature "laboratories of democracy" as new laws were passed for governance the raising of public money and the training and outfitting of a military force to contribute to the Revolutionary cause. Pennsylvania's Assembly was especially noteworthy for its sharp political divisions between ardent supporters of independence and those suspected of being Loyalists. The session laws collected here document the creation of the state's new political and civic structure spelling out the roles and responsibilities of the governor the Assembly and the courts the organization of the state militia and the requirements for serving therein the creation of taxes and other means for raising public funds and much much more. This collection contains the journals of eighteen sessions of the Pennsylvania legislature representing the period from November 28 1776 the first meeting of the Pennsylvania General Assembly through the fourth sitting of the Fifth General Assembly in 1781 this last work and one other here known only in two copies. The only two comparable collections of Pennsylvania laws are those formed in the 19th century by Pennsylvania lawyer Charlemagne Tower and one set of twenty-eight laws sold by William Reese Company lacking one very rare imprint included here. In his catalogue of the Tower collection noted bibliographer Charles Hildeburn called Tower's grouping of Pennsylvania laws "unequalled" and rightly so as it spanned more than 100 years and contained more than 150 separate items. Tower's collection of colonial American laws which contained all of the Pennsylvania laws found in the present collection was given to the Historical Society of Pennsylvania in 1890. The collection here includes Tower's numbers 757 through 773 a complete run of Pennsylvania session laws for the years 1776 to 1781. The present collection of eighteen session laws from 1776 to 1785 outstrips the holdings of the next nearest institutions - the Library of Congress which has only sixteen of the titles and the American Antiquarian Society which holds only twelve. The next nearest after that is the University of Pennsylvania with only seven of the titles. Of the eighteen printings of laws in this collection two are known in only one other copy each the fifth and last items; most other works are known in less than three four or six copies. It is likely that the laws were produced in very small numbers mainly for the use of the legislators and the earlier ones would have suffered losses in the British invasion of Philadelphia and eastern Pennsylvania in 1777. Within these laws are found much of the day-to-day politics and business of running a state during the Revolution with details of the war dominating. The very first laws establish a quorum authorize the courts issue Continental currency establish a militia and cover many military matters. By the third session the legislature had been forced to flee Philadelphia in front of the British invasion and the next four session laws are printed in Lancaster by Francis Bailey and John Dunlap. The fourth sitting of the second General Assembly reconvened in Philadelphia on August 4 1778. Virtually all of the laws in this period are concerned with the prosecution of the war whether attainting traitors organizing supplies passing military regulations or controlling prices. But there is much of importance besides; in January 1780 the Assembly passed "An Act for the Gradual Abolition of Slavery" as well as incorporating the American Philosophical Society. Beginning with the Fourth General Assembly in October 1779 Thomas Paine became the Clerk and all the published laws are subscribed by him in type until September 1780.

Bradford 1663-1752 originally settled in Pennsylvania where he began operating a printing press in 1685 and a bookstore in 1688. Controversies within the Quaker community with Bradford supporting the dissident George Keith led to the temporary seizure of his type and paper in 1692 and in 1693 he moved to New York. The present acts of Assembly cover the legislation passed between 1691 and 1725. Laws here include acts "for quieting and settling the Disorders that have lately happened within this Province" 1691 "for restraining and punishing Privateers and Pyrates" 1693 and 1698 and "against Jesuites and Popish Priests" 1700 as well as numerous acts "for Regulating Slaves" and one for "Baptizing them" 1706.
