Description
New York: [New York Protestant Episcopal Press], 1829. Very good.. Broadside, 10.5 x 9 inches. Old folds, foxing, creasing, and toning, with substantial but irregularly-trimmed margins. An unrecorded New York broadside advertising the opening of the New York Protestant Episcopal Press (NYPEP) and related activities at No. 46 Lumber Street in New York City in 1829. The text states that "PRINTING of every description will be executed for Churches, Bible and Common Prayer-Book Societies, Tract Societies, Missionary or Education Societies, and all other religious institutions of the Protestant Episcopal Church, at the lowest rates, and in the best manner" and that the new establishment will "also be the publication office of The Family Visiter and Sunday School Magazine; and of The Children's Magazine." The text also includes notes about the business of the organization, as well as notices to "Booksellers who are members of the Protestant Episcopal Church" and "secretaries of religious and charitable associations." In addition to their printing and binding work, the broadside states that the NYPEP will take charge of the depositories of five New York institutions -- the General Protestant Episcopal Sunday Union, the New York Bible and Common Prayer-Book Society, the Auxiliary New York Bible and Common Prayer-Book Society, the New York Protestant Episcopal Tract Society, and the New York Protestant Episcopal Sunday School Society. The bottom half of the broadside is taken up with a listing of the organization's Board of Trustees, "Other Managers," the general agent, book-keeper, printer (William Van Norden), and binder (Christian Brown), along with a postscript with details on various forthcoming publications by the press. William Van Norden was a prolific printer in New York in the first half of the 19th century, producing more than just religious works. He printed the collected works of Benjamin Franklin, Hannah Moore's memoir, and the Proceedings of the New York Historical Society, among many other works, and later helped produce The National Portrait Gallery of Distinguished Americans. We could locate no other copies of this broadside anywhere.
