About This Item
New York: WM. Elliot / Tontine Coffee House, 1812. 12mo, 36pp. A clean, if fragile copy, near fine in the original self-wrappers. Contemporary owner's name inked on the title page (D. Gardiner). Removed quite neatly from a sammelband. Scarce pamphlet, published at the Tontine Coffee House, a busy spot founded by a group of investors which would eventually evolve into the New York Stock Exchange. The pamphlet discusses various economic trends which can be traced to the young American nation's lack of trade with the United Kingdom. This strained relationship would result in the War of 1812 later that same year. Sabin 85; Shaw/Shoemaker 25559.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
