Description
Mexico City: July 16, 1836. Very good.. Broadside, 12.25 x 8.5 inches. One light fold down middle, minor loss to lower corners. A rare broadside that promulgates a decree from the Mexican federal government, ordering that foreign goods be allowed into the port of Matamoros in order to supply the army in the war against Texas. It further states that only foreign provisions imported for the support of the expeditionary force, as well as mules and wagons to convey them, will be exempted from tariff and seizure within the country. The text reads, in part: "1.o Durante la guerra con los sublevados de Tejas, se permitirá la introducción de víveres del extrangero por el puerto de Matamoros. 2.o Los derechos que se causen en dicha introduccion, se pagarán en el acto en víveres recibiéndose estos al precio de aforo, y destinándose exclusivamente à la subsistencia del Ejército espedicionario sobre Tejas. 3.o Los que de lo interior se conduzcan al mismo Ejército, serán libres de todo derecho, y no podrán embargarse las mulas ó carruagas en que se trasporten." The present decree was issued on July 16, 1836, in Mexico City. Perhaps in response to this order, the Texans blockaded Matamoros, which occupies a strategic position at the mouth of the Rio Grande across from Brownsville, from July 21 through the end of October. We locate three copies of this broadside -- the Streeter copy, now at Yale, and two additional examples, at Texas A&M and Penn. Streeter Texas 880.

Description
Kansas City, MO: Max C. Reefer, 1915. Very good. Large circular; 11 3/4 x 9 1/2; single sheet, pp. [2]; illustrated with two engravings; offest to upper margin from stored together with another publication; small creases to corners and a few minor nicks to edges; overall in very good condition. Born in Austria in 1848, Max C. Reefer immigrated to the US in 1861 and worked as a typesetter for the New York Tribune and several other papers in Chicago and St. Louis, before moving with his family to Kansas City in 1863 and opening the Green Mountain Distillery. Being not quite a true distiller, but rather buying whiskeys from other distilleries, mixing his own, proprietary blends, and bottling them under his own label, Reefer was nevertheless very successful in his enterprise. With a business model focused on aggressive, elaborate advertising, free giveaways to customers, and mail order sales, he would also be, allegedly, the only business to ever openly oppose one of the biggest monopolies in the US - the Whiskey Trust. Reefer's current circular began: "The country is going prohibition mad. Kentucky is 98 per cent dry and we don't know when the other 2 per cent will follow...Who can account for fanaticism?..." It listed his wholesale prices on various whiskeys, as well as an offer for 4 gallons of the finest pilgrim whiskey for $9.77. He also offered genuine Waltham or Elgin pocket watches, "The Offer of the Century!," with orders of 10 gallons or more.
