Charleston: Steam Power_press of Walker & James, 3 Broad-Street, [ca. 1853, per internal date], 32pp. Octavo, illustrated wrappers. General exterior soil; large but mild tideline stain through all pages, not affecting legibility whatsoever. Scarce antebellum South Carolina trade catalog by Lewis M. Hatch (1815-1887), an enterprising Charleston merchant. Hatch's firm offered whale, large and sperm oil and belting for machinists to use in paper and textiles mills. Remarkably, the majority of this catalog (pp7-32) is devoted to the selling of C. Rich and Company's Improved Patent Salamander Safes ("Warranted free from Dampness, as well as Fire-proof") begging the question: exactly how many safes was Hatch selling or hoped to sell? Sixteen pages of this section, alone, are devoted to double-column listings of satisfied customers -appearing first: South Carolinians, Georgians, Alabamians, Floridians and Louisianans-and elsewhere in America. Hatch also self-advertised as the Charleston agent for the…

Madrid: Imprenta de Ayguals de Izco Hermanos, 1852. Small quarto. 476, [4], [2, (blank)] pages. Quarter leather spine, patterned boards. Binding with general rubbing; small expert tissue mend near title-page gutter; very good. The rare first Spanish edition of Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896), published in the same year as the first American edition. This Madrid edition was published and translated by Wenceslao Ayguals de Izco, the social critic, progressive reformer, and highly-influential novelist and publisher. Aygual explicitly imported Stowe's book into Spain as an abolitionist novel with an intent to effect social change. The perception of its publication by Spanish authorities was immediate and significant; they deemed it to be a subversive text and placed it on the Index of Prohibited Books. (Surwillo) "Stowe's explosive bestseller was unequaled in its rate of diffusion. Strictly in terms of numbers of readers, the impact of this text was phenomenal. Within six weeks of…

[Philadelphia, August 1944]. Broadside. 14 x 17¾ inches. Creasing; some edge wear and light soiling at top and bottom; Very Good. Unrecorded World War II military directive issued to employees of the Philadelphia Transportation Company on strike in protest against Black employees taking on non-menial jobs. The Philadelphia transit strike of 1944 was the largest racially motivated labor strike of the war. On August 1, 1944, because of wartime labor shortages, newly trained Black workers of the PTC began to take positions as drivers and conductors, jobs previously reserved for whites. By noon that day, with racial tensions rising, 4,500 white employees of the PTC responded by going out on strike, crippling an essential wartime service. In response, acting under the provisions of the Smith-Connally Act (War Labor Disputes Act), President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered the War Department to take control of the PTC. "On Saturday, August 5, President Roosevelt sent 5,000 heavily armed soldiers into…
