Description
[Boston: Printed by Edward Eveleth Powars, 1787. Folio broadside, @11"x 17", printed in two columns. Signed at the end in type by Bowdoin. Untrimmed with generous margins. Several tanned old folds, light wear. Else Very Good. Governor Bowdoin's rare broadside veto attempts to limit the power of popularly elected legislative majorities. His Message vetoes a bill reducing the Governor's salary. The fear of excessive legislative power was a primary concern of the architects of the Constitution. Bowdoin, who ranks "among the founders of the republic" [DAB], argues that the Act is one "to which the Legislative power does not extend." Citing the Massachusetts Constitution, Bowdoin explains "that the Governour should not be under the undue influence of any of the Members of the General Court, by a dependence on them for his support; that he should in all cases act with freedom for the benefit of the public." Bristol B6525. Shipton 45097. Ford 2470. ESTC W10470 [2- AAS, MA Hist Soc.]. NAIP adds the Bostonian Society. Not in Evans.

(Edinburgh): AK Press, 1995. First Edition. Near fine.. Lists over 600 texts published after the dissolution of the S.I., including works by related groups such as the Second Situationist International, Lettrisme, Cobra, and Spur.

Ford also notes that the book's 20-year span was, for the S.I., "a period of transtition from relative obscurity to celebrity." The standard reference. Wraps. 8vo. Perfect-bound printed glossy wraps. Very near fine. Minimal edgewear. Bright, crisp overall; binding tight. Appears largely unread. 149pp.

Measures 8 3/4" x 5 1/2" The Richard Gundry Home, formally known as the Harlem Lodge, was established in 1891 to treat a variety of mental and nervous disorders, as well as exhaustion or addiction to alcohol or opium. The Home was named in memory of Dr. Richard Gundry, Sr. (1829-1891) and was owned by his wife, Mrs. Mary M. Gundry (1838-1908) and their son Dr. Richard Fitz Harris Gundry (1866-1924). Mary acted as the proprietor with her son as the resident physician until 1898 when Mary retired, and her son gained complete ownership. The Home had five buildings, and it prided itself on its modern conveniences, like steam heating and electricity, as well as its many "attractions to divert the mind" such as its extensive library, bowling alley, conservatory, and orchard. The house had the capacity for 45 patients who were in the course of their treatment expected to engage in various outdoor work, such as gardening or sports.
