Beschreibung

Cartoon drawings; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 336 pages; 1894 G. Holzapfel, Cleona, PA. HC in original beige cloth decoratively lettered in blue. Presumed 1st edition. An unusual and striking humorous polemical work in the cause for Women's Suffrage penned by a Presbyterian Minister of Ohio and published in the somewhat backwater town of Cleona in Lebanon County, PA. Illustrated with about 50 humorous political and social cartoons by S. J. Williams. This copy a bit worn from prior reading with moderate shelf soiling to the cloth boards and light bruising to the boards at corner tips. Front endpages partially split in the hinge, but archivally reinforced with our judicious application of japanese paper in the hinge. A few scattered instances of finger soiling to the pages, a few pages corner creased at tips. Some toning and soiling to endpages with a pair of short closed tear to the front flyleaf. Slightly shaken with a pair of signatures starting slightly. Very uncommon early work for Suffrage from a somewhat unexpected subject. Fittingly the author leans heavily on religious and Biblical defenses for a woman's right to vote, but also includes a wide range of poltical aspects from all corners of the globe. Humorous rhetorical writing is well paired with the illustrations. We handled one other copy some years ago with a different binding design. Priority unknown. G+. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 53112
