Neat owner signature of George W. Wood dated Feb. 2nd 1850 to 2nd inside page. (This may be the George W. Wood who was elected as first Mayor of Fort Wayne, Indiana on March 1 1840).

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good +. First Edition. Quarto, 208pp., 208pp., plus 16pp. "Extra" section at the end of the second volume. Bound in contemporary marbled boards with calf spine and corner tips, with title pages to each volume. Binding with heavy wear, the spine perished with just cloth tape holding the binding together. Con…tents with mild to moderate foxing internally, some owners' names to the corners, occasionally partly trimmed away. A few small institutional markings, but mostly clean internally. Overall in good or better condition. Note that Volume I, issue 1 is dated December 20, 1838, and is indicated as the "Second edition." The apparent first edition of this issue was published in November, and that issue is not present. By comparing with a digitized copy of that number, it appears that some editorial changes were made in the interim, but the general contents are about the same. "The Oberlin Evangelist" was a radical religious newspaper, which explored moral philosophy and many of the important topics of the day, including the Abolitionist movement, which was taking Oberlin and the wider region by storm by the late 1830s. A large number of sermons by radical preacher Charles Grandison Finney are included herein, as well as responses from readers to his sermons and to other articles. The periodical lasted through the end of the Civil War. Present commerce and the auction record suggest that any and all issues are scarce. This substantial run of the first 52 issues is porticularly important, documenting the intellectual life of Oberlin College and some of its radical founders and early thought leaders, whose controversial and radical philosophies would ultimately prove to be the germ of mainstream American liberalism. The most recent appearance of a similar run (volumes II and III, NOT including volume I) which we could trace was offered by Goodspeed in 1932. Scarce.
