About This Item
Boston: E. Lincoln, 1807. First Edition. Softcover. Good. Octavo, 16pp. A good or better copy, bound into later plain brown paper wrappers. Sizable chip to the first three leaves at the gutter, not affecting any printed text except for part of the first letter at the title page. Some scattered foxing, and age-toning to the first and last leaves, probably from the acidic paper wrappers. This also affects a gift inscription on the title page from one "J. Porter." A very uncommon little pamphlet, which attempts to lay out a plan or regime for dealing with patents and the rights of ownership for innovating inventors. These concerns were certainly significant during the era of the cotton gin, the very beginnings of canal-building, and the steadily growing presence of small factories and mechanized labor in the young United States. Scarce in commerce. Checklist of American Imprints 13188 and 13480; Sabin 69502;.

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.
