Title: The Battle of Manila. Fought May 1st by Rear Admiral Dewey. Spanish Loss: 11 Ships, 150 Killed, 250 Wounded. American Loss: None [caption title]
Author: [Spanish-American War]: [Philippines]: [Rear Admiral George Dewey]
Seller: The Joe Fay Company LLC (United States)
Description: New York: Muller, Luchsinger & Co, 1898. Color chromolithograph, 16 x 20 inches, printed on thick, glossy paper. Corners a bit chipped, several short closed edge tears, minor surface wear. Image area still vibrant and clean. Very good overall. A striking and very rare lithograph capturing an important moment during the Spanish-American War, specifically the American Navy's assault on Manila Bay in the Philippines in 1898. In the present scene, three U.S. warships from the Asiatic Squadron in the left and middle, including Admiral Dewey's flagship the U.S.S. Olympia, fire their guns toward a few retreating ships flying the Spanish flag. A Spanish ship at middle right is almost completely sunken, with just a portion of the flag peaking above the water. The scene depicts the first major engagement of the Spanish-American War, a decisive victory for the American Navy that stands as one of the most lop-sided naval battles in history. During the course of the encounter, the Spanish Pacific Squadron was destroyed and effectively ended Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines. The bombardment was commanded by Rear Admiral George Dewey (1837-1917), whose head-and-shoulders portrait appears in the bottom left corner. The work was accomplished by the New York firm of Muller, Luchsinger & Company, a prolific but still somewhat obscure producer of prints, lithographs, and chromolithographs in the latter-19th and early-20th centuries. OCLC records just two institutional copies, at the Library of Congress and the Clements Library. A dynamic and patriotic American naval scene picturing the United States Navy's obliteration of the Spanish Navy in Manila.

Condition: Very good
Description: New York: Geo. Munro Publisher, 17 to 27 Vanderwater St, 1889. Wraps. Very good. [DIME NOVEL / PULP] [FICTION]. 12mo (7 3/16 x 4 7/8"); [2]pp ads for the "New York Fashion Bazar" magazine precedes the text, 144pp + [16]pp publisher's ads, including [4]pp for Die Deutshe Library in German, as well as ads for personal hygiene and health products; color pictorial wrapper mimicking an alligator case with buckles, and a faux seascape postcard on the front, rear wrapper pictures the Eiffel Tower and an ad for "Gold Medal Paris 1889 Colgate's Perfumes and Soaps"; staple binding; chipping at spine with loss, rubbing to wrappers, light age-toning of paper; very good. OCLC locates only one copy with this publishing date at Ohio State University, a later edition is housed at New Mexico State University. George Munro (1825-1896) was a Canadian publisher who found success in publishing several series of inexpensive stories. The most successful were the paperback novels known as the "Seaside Library Pocket Edition." The banner on the front wrapper reads "Seaside Library, Pocket Edition. Issued Tri-Weekly by Subscription $50 Per Annum. Patented June 7th, 1887. Entered at the Post Office at New York at Second Class Rates. Copyright by Geo. Munro 1887." This series was not really a "dime novel" or "pulp fiction" publication because Munro relied on the work of known British authors to pirate and reprint. This novel was by William Norris (1847-1925), who was a prolific British novelist and writer. The ads for other Munro imprints in this volume promote The New York Fashion Bazar, The Best Ladies" Magazine, the Die Deutsche Library, Hunters' Yarns, Munro's Star Recitations, The Autobiography of a Barrel of Bourbon, Munro's Dialogues and Speakers, the Old Sleuth Library, the Library of American Authors, and other single title reprints.
