Unbound. Condition: Good. First Edition. Single sided broadside, approximately 455mm x 285mm in size, no place, but probably Stourbridge, and no date, but 1859. A couple of small chips, small hole to top left hand corner, two closed tears to bottom edge, slightly creased, but generally in good order. Printed on blue paper, the b…roadside relates to the 1859 by-election in Worcester East, contested between the Whig, Frederick Gough-Calthorpe and the Tory, Sir John Pakington, 2nd Baron Hampton, where Gough-Calthorpe was elected with a majority of 339. This is an anti-Pakington broadside, noting his personalisation of the campaign, "The 'Printer's Devil' has exhausted his stock of I's", and quoting a newspaper article calling him a "bigoted Puseyite". The printer was probably [Thomas] Mellard of Stourbridge (not located in BBTI), who died in 1861. Not in Library Hub Size: Elephant Folio. Broadside.

Single sheet, (267mm.), Printed letterpress on both sides on a sheet of wove paper, sometime folded and a little soiled. The author is perhaps the Victorian painter influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, who was a well-known socialist as the author certainly did not care for the House of Lords, tarriff reform, and much el…se besides. 'The able and upright peers are too few to weigh in the voting. If we grant their present arrogant claims, we should make ourselves the slaves of the idle and ignorant men described above.' Please note that the advised postage is based on an average book weight of approx. 1 kilo packed, if possible the postage will be reduced to the correct amount and you will be notified by email.

Includes a printed letter from Harrison's New York Committee of supporters, addressed to the Honorable Chas. Strong of Jefferson County, New York [1835]. A scarce broadside, there are five other known copies, including an example at the Library of Congress and four other distinguished institutions. Provenance: From the Camp Family Archive of Sackets Harbor, NY, with items relating to the first-generation settlers of Jefferson County, NY, from 1809-1866. The collection was amassed by Colonel Elisha Camp and his wife, Sophia Hale Camp, then held by the family for nine generations. Sold by Blanchard's Auction Service in 2021. The twelve incidents depicted in this broadside include: Harrison's Humanity in War; Harrison's Address to [Simon] Bolivar; Harrison's Treatment of an Old Fellow Soldier; Harrison Prefering [sic] Another Man's Son to His Own; Harrison's Care for His Soldiers; Delivering the Eagle; Harrison Charging in Battle, at the Thames; Harrison's Self-Denial; Harrison Giving Away His Only Blanket; Harrison Giving His Horse to a Methodist Minister; Harrison Saving the Life of a Negro; and The Council of Vincennes. William Henry Harrison (1773-1841) served as the governor of the Indiana Territory from 1801-1812. While governor, he negotiated numerous treaties with the native Americans in the area, greatly reducing their territory and stoking resentment against the United States. His antagonism culminated in the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811 against the Shawnee Indians. This battle and the War of 1812 made Harrison a household name and propelled him to the White House in 1841. Log Cabin Anecdotes, a campaign broadside promoting Whig Party presidential candidate William Henry Harrison, during the election of 1840. (illustrator).
