Beschreibung

First edition pamphlet, circa 1892. Condition is Very Good: Some toning around edges of wraps. Small chips, small closed edge tears and minor corner wear on some pages. Staples with some rust. No interior writing or vandalism. Pages are bright. Wraps are attached but delicate especially in front. Paginates: wraps, (1)-32. Somewhat uncommon pamphlet. WorldCat locates approximately 20 physical copies. See OCLC: 166586224 and 2599901. See McDade (Annals of Murder) 6. This pamphlet has two laid in adverts for another pamphlet "Life, trial, and confession of Sawtell" (AKA: Trial of Isaac Sawtell; AKA: History of the Murder of Hiram Sawtell by his brother Isaac Sawtell. McDade 852.) The laid in ads are the most ephemeral of ephemera. A collectible item in like condition. Please see images of the book you will receive. Notes: Although author and date are not present one can make an educated guess. Murder was committed November, 1891 with trial shortly thereafter. These pamphlets would have been published at conclusion of the trial therefore, 1892. Author is likely the publisher or one of his partners. I located one other Lane publication regarding the aptly named 'Dr. Graves.' More Notes: The adverts clearly show the Almy title preceded the Sawtell title even though the Sawtell murder occurred earlier so Sawtell collectors will need to adjust their dates.
