Calf, marbled boards. Condición: Very Good. FIRST OBTAINABLE PRINTING OF THE PRELIMINARY EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION, setting a date for the freedom of more than three million enslaved in the United States and reframing the Civil War as a fight against slavery. Issued by the War Department to regimental commanders in the field during the Civil War in the week after the completion of President Lincoln's official manuscript version. Contained is a set of three volumes of General Orders covering the full year 1862, July-Dec 1863, and the full year 1864. History of the Emancipation Proclamation: "The proclamation has been called by responsible persons one of the three great documents of world history, ranking with Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence" Eberstadt "From the first days of the Civil War, slaves had acted to secure their own liberty. The Emancipation Proclamation confirmed their insistence that the war for the Union must become a war for freedom. It added moral force to the Union cause and strengthened the Union both militarily and politically. As a milestone along the road to slavery's final destruction, the Emancipation Proclamation has assumed a place among the great documents of human freedom" National Archives Following the Seven Days Battle and General McClellan's retreat from the Peninsula, at the end of June 1862, President Lincoln realized that there would be no early end to the war, and found himself "as inconsolable as it was possible for a human to be and yet live." Anxious for news from the army and needing to escape the constant interruptions at the White House, he frequently visited the telegraph office in the War Department building to await dispatches. It was during one such visit early in July that he asked the chief of the telegraph staff, Major Thomas Thompson Eckert, for some paper to "write something special," and began the first draft of the Emancipation Proclamation, completing it in a few weeks. Lincoln had long hoped to resolve the slavery issue through a congressional act of emancipation compensating slave owners for their loss of "property," but that approach was roundly rejected by representatives from the border states, leaving the President, who had decided upon the necessity of emancipation, with a presidential proclamation as the only option. The extraordinary document he conceived would announce the liberation on January 1, 1863 of all slaves in those states still in rebellion against the Union, and promised compensation to slave owners in those states that returned to the fold before that time if they adopted "immediate or gradual abolishment of slavery." This proclamation would be followed by a final proclamation issued on the 1st of January, identifying those states still in rebellion and confirming the liberation of all slaves therein. On Tuesday, July 22, Lincoln presented his draft to the Cabinet, telling them that he had resolved firmly upon the course of action it specified, and asking them not for advice but suggestions. The only observation he had not anticipated came from Secretary of State Seward, who proposed that it might be best to wait for a military victory before issuing the Proclamation, as it could otherwise seem like "the last measure of an exhausted government." Immediately recognizing the wisdom of the suggestion, Lincoln held back. On September 17, after an anxious wait of nearly two months, he received the victory he needed at the bloody Battle of Antietam. Completing his final draft, Lincoln presented it to his cabinet for refinement on September 22. Following the meeting, Seward took the amended draft with him to the State Department, where a formal, manuscript copy was made, then signed by Lincoln and Seward. The formal, official "Emancipation Proclamation" was, of course, issued on January 1, 1863, the day it became the law of the land. Printing History: This printing, in the War Department's official "General Orders", is the fourth printing overall, but realistically, the first obtainable printing. It is preceded by: -The first printing (Eberstadt #1), a small three-page circular intended for distribution within the government and to the local press, likely printed on September 22. At the time that Charles Eberstadt published his study of the Proclamation (1950), he was able to locate only one copy, which he himself owned, and as nearly as we have been able to determine, no other copies have come to light since then. -The second printing (Eberstadt #2) may be a phantom printing. Charles Eberstadt was not able to locate a copy but he inferred its existence from the standard State Department practice of printing a folio edition consisting solely of the text of the proclamation, followed by another printing consisting of the text of a letter of transmittal from the Secretary of State as well as the text of the proclamation. While there may be a copy of Eberstadt #2 in the National Archives, as he speculated, it is not recorded in their online catalogue, nor have we been able to find a copy in any other online catalogue, including OCLC, the Library of Congress, and the Abraham Lincoln Library. -Eberstadt's third printing is of legendary rarity. It consists of Secretary of State Seward's one-page letter of transmittal addressed "To the Diplomatic and Consular Officers of the United States in foreign countries," and the text of the proclamation. Eberstadt located a total of only five copies in institutions, at the Library of Congress, the National Archives, Yale, the Clements Library, and Brown. OCLC does not record any additional copies, nor is it recorded in Monaghan. There has been one copy at auction ($400,000 in 2021) and that was described as the only copy in private hands. -The present copy (General Orders, No. 139) is Eberstadt's fourth printing of the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, dated in print on September 24. Eberstadt surmises that this field order printing could have been accomplished as late as September 29 or 30. Although it may.

No binding. Condición: Very Good. Emancipation Proclamation Issued January 1st 1863 Engraved Print. Philadelphia: Gilman R. Russell, 1865. Printed by P. S. Duval & Son. 1 p., 19 x 26 in. This print celebrates and commemorates the Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863. It features an image of Lincoln by a table with the text of the Proclamation around him. In the design prepared by calligrapher Gilman R. Russell, the top features an eagle, a woman representing Liberty, and a freed slave against a backdrop of draped flags. Cherubs and flowers border the entire design. Historical BackgroundAs historian John Hope Franklin wrote, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation "was a step toward the extension of the ideal of equality about which Jefferson had written" in the Declaration of Independence. Though controversial at first, in time, "the greatness of the document dawned upon the nation and the world. Gradually, it took its place with the great documents of human freedom."The Emancipation Proclamation was the single most important act of Lincoln's presidency. Its text reveals the major themes of the Civil War: the importance of slavery to the war effort on both sides; the courting of border states; Lincoln's hopes that the rebellious states could somehow be convinced to reenter the Union; the role of black soldiers; Constitutional and popular constraints on emancipation; the place of African Americans in the United States, and America's place in a worldwide movement toward the abolition of the "Slave Power," the president took a decisive stand on the most contentious issue in American history.Gilman R. Russell (1822-1874) was born in Woodstock, New Hampshire. He became well-known as a professor of penmanship and a calligrapher, or "teacher of practical, plain & ornamental writing and drawing." He created lithograph broadsides of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Emancipation Proclamation. His 1856 Declaration of Independence print had a similar design with a standing George Washington in the central position.Peter Stephen Duval (ca. 1805-1886) was born in France and emigrated to Philadelphia in 1831 to work as a lithographer with the printing firm of Childs and Inman. By 1837, Duval had established his own lithographic printing shop, which he operated until his retirement in 1869. He became a naturalized citizen in 1841. He was the most prominent Philadelphia lithographer of the nineteenth century. By the mid-1840s, he was printing in colors, and he soon began to win awards for his chromolithography. At its height, Duval's firm operated nearly thirty presses and employed sixty to seventy artists, draftsmen, and workmen. In 1857, his son Stephen Duval joined the firm, then known as P.S. Duval & Son.Condition: Very Good, professionally conserved. Print.

No binding. Condición: Fine. New York Journal of Commerce Ilustrador. Newspaper. New York Journal of Commerce. New York, N.Y., January 3, 1863. 4 pp., 24 x 32 1/2 in. An early report of the Emancipation Proclamation, where the editors describe Lincoln's bold move as "a farce coming in after a long tragedy.Most of the people regard it as a very foolish piece of business." Historical BackgroundThe Emancipation Proclamation was the single most important act of Lincoln's presidency. Its text reveals the major themes of the Civil War: the importance of slavery to the war effort on both sides; the courting of border states; Lincoln's hopes that the rebellious states could somehow be convinced to reenter the Union; the role of black soldiers; Constitutional and popular constraints on emancipation; the place of African Americans in the United States, and America's place in a worldwide movement toward the abolition of slavery. In sounding the death knell for slavery and the "Slave power," the President took a decisive stand on the most contentious issue in American history, and the United States joined other western nations in embracing a future of free labor.In addition to the moral impact of this "sincerely believed.act of justice," the Proclamation aided the Union cause tangibly and decisively. Because it focused on territory still held by the Confederacy, only small numbers of slaves (compared to the total slave population) were immediately freed. However, the Proclamation deprived the South of essential labor by giving all slaves a reason to escape to Union lines. Failing that, it freed slaves immediately upon the Union Army's occupation of Confederate territory. The Proclamation also encouraged the enlistment of black soldiers, who made a crucial contribution to the Union war effort. Moreover, England and France, who had already abolished slavery, were restrained from supporting the Confederacy, which would have been in their own economic interests. Lincoln summed up the Proclamation's importance in 1864: "no human power can subdue this rebellion without using the Emancipation lever as I have done."Nonetheless, the editors of the Journal of Commerce disagreed, and their opinion reflects the truly controversial nature of the act for many contemporary Americans.
