Sobre este artículo
Boston: Benjamin Eliot, 1726. First Edition. Very good in a contemporary, full leather binding with five raised bands on the spine with no dates or titles and with the boards decorated with blind embossing. The spine appears to be rebacked in a style comparable to the rough nature of the boards. A quarto of 11 1/2 by 7 3/8 inches with damage to the leather at the tips of the boards and scars, blemishes and small chips to the leather. The front paste down shows three brief notes from three early prior owners the second one of which notes the date of purchase (1752) from a John Hill, Esq. The title page has been professionally backed to protect numerous chips and has been signed by a more recent prior owner in the margins. This charter which was originally dated on May 14, 1692, included Massachusetts Bay Colony, Plymouth Colony, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, the Province of Maine, and parts of what is now Nova Scotia. It is bound in with The Acts And Laws of His Majesty's Province of the Massachusetts Bay in New England. This volume is contained and protected within a fine, dark brown, cloth covered slip case. The Charter is printed in 13 pages which is followed by a two page "Explanatory Charter granted by His Majesty King George" which is followed by "The Table" (Index) of 17 pages. That is followed by "Acts and Laws, Of HIs Majesty's Province Of The Massachusetts Bay In New England printed in Boston in 1716 of 456 pages.
