Description
New York, New York: Women Against Daddy Warbucks, 1970. Good to very good. Some toning, creasing/wear. One or two closed short tears.. On July 2nd, 1970, five members of the all-female coalition "Women Against Daddy Warbucks" broke into the midtown Manhattan office that held important 1-A draft files, denoting men who would soon be drafted into the Vietnam War. They destroyed these documents, all of the "1" and "A" letters on the typewriters, and posted graphic imagery of the devastation caused by the war in the offices; the next day, they turned themselves in and published the present statement several days later, including the full names of the women involved. Part of their statement, addressed to the Dow Chemical Company, Chase Bank, Standard Oil, and Shell (all tenants of Rockefeller), reads: "We are sending you the file of a dead soldier taken from Upper Manhattan's draft board on July 2, by a group of women. We are those women ... We send this file to tell you that we do not accept your measure of a man. He is not to be bought for oil or sold for plastics. He happens only once and that happening is sacred." Offered together with an original enamel pin depicting a feminist symbol with a fist inside. Pin measures approx. 1.5" in diameter. Tri-fold printed pamphlet, illus., measures 8.5" by 3.75" folded.

Description
Fairfield, Washington: Ye Galleon press, 1985. An exciting, early, and popular work, by a strong and courageous woman. Mrs. Bradley, along with her husband and his crew, were captured by desert Arabs after a shipwreck off Morocco. She endured six months of captivity and was ultimately ransomed by the British Consul. Unfortunately, according to Huntress, "This narrative is almost certainly spurious, another in the succession "Captivity and Sufferings of Mrs. Mary Velnet" and "Captivity and Sufferings of Maria Martin" having been extracted "directly" from Riley's narrative, "Sufferings in Africa." Nonetheless, Mrs. Bradley's book has wormed its way into the imaginations of generations and is now a part of shipwreck literature. See Huntress 202C. Bound in brown boards with gilt lettering. Fine condition. . 22.5 cm. 99 pp. Duotone frontispiece and illustrations.
