Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. Hard cover bound volume, 4to., in three quarter morocco over marbled paper covered boards, the spine with raised bands rolled in gilt decoration with COLUMBIAN/ MAGAZINE and year 1846 tooled to the second and fourth compartments. In Two Parts with separate Tables of Contents and title pages. Vol. V is illustrated with 14 full-page steel plate engravings, including line and mezzotints, with three hand-colored fashion plates; Vol. VI features 18 engravings, (none colored.) A number have patriotic or political themes, with the male editors providing commentary (also for the fashion plates, oddly.) Contributions from a number of recognized nineteenth-century women writers are represented in these pages, as outlined. ** CONDITION: Very Good overall, but INSIDE IS CLOSER TO FINE. Exterior with some rubbing and shelf wear. Loss of leather corner on front bottom. Crack to top of joint about two inches in length. Inside, hinges are in order. Folded corner to a couple of prelims, but contents are very clean, firm and bright. Plates are gorgeous, with only one blemished marginally and one other only foxed. The mezzotints sing with deep rich tones. **AUTHOR HIGHLIGHTS include several poems by FRANCES SARGENT OSGOOD (1811-1850); she and EDGAR ALLAN POE famously exchanged romantic poetry, and she is buried at Boston's Mount Auburn Cemetery. Another Poe acquaintance was the Author Miss CATHERINE M. SEDGWICK, who was brought up in western Massachusetts in a family of lawyers and judges (her father became Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Court.) She was a successful novelist in her own right, publishing 1824's "A New England Tale. Redwood, " a best seller. Her work was favorably compared to that of her contemporary James Fenimore Cooper. Poe described her appearance in detail in a column in Godey's Lady's Book of 1846 (Vol. 33, pp. 131-132) in a column titled "The Literati of New York City"."Her forehead is an unusually fine one, [the] nose of a slightly Roman curve; eyes dark and piercing; mouth well-formed and remarkably pleasant in its expression. The portrait in Graham's Magazine is by no means a likeness." Ms. Osgood was, then, being extensively written about in the main literary outlets of the day. She provides six selections here.**LYDIA MARIA CHILD (1802-1880), another influential Massachusetts author and editor, was also a first wave feminist known for her promotion of many causes considered "radical" in her day. Abolitionism, the rights of indigenous people, and women's suffrage were among her causes, and she also wrote a novel about interracial marriage in 1824. She and her husband also worked with Newburyport-born abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison's anti-slavery movement in Boston. [ See our related listing for "The History of the Condition of Women, in Various Ages and Nations," our no. 9258.] In this volume, LMC offers four selections: "Recollections of Ole Bull," "She Waits in the Spirit Land," "The Self-Conscious, and the Unconscious," and "The Neighbor-in-Law." **Newburyport's HANNAH FLAGG GOULD (1789-1865) is also represented in these pages with her poem, "The Empty Cradle." Gould was also a contemporary of Wm. Lloyd Garrison, writing for his anti-slavery newspaper, "The Liberator." [See our related listing 7250.] **ANNA BLACKWELL (1816-1900) Bristol, England-born, Author and Poet later associated with the Transcendentalists at Boston's Brook Farm, also provides a number of poems in this collection. Like Child, she is considered a first wave feminist and radical thinker in the areas of woman's rights and abolitionism. She was also a correspondent of some intimate variety with E.A. Poe. **Her sister, Miss ELIZABETH BLACKWELL, (1821-1910) provides a short story, "Lyndhurst" to this issue. She would famously go on to become the first trained woman medical doctor in the United States, beginning her medical studies the following year,1847, at Geneva Medical College in New York. Prior to that, however, she and her five sisters made ends meet after the death of their father instructing at a private school run with their mother in Cincinnati. A male contributor, James Kirk Paulding, forgoing credit with the byline,"By an Amateur," adds a spirited critique of midcentury spiritualism in "Panegyric on Witchcraft, Mesmerism and Cheap Literature."

Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. Hard cover bound volume, 4to., ex-library, in three-quarter calf over embossed diced-style gray cloth-covered boards, the spine with four raised bands triple-ruled with gilt, with title and year to the second and fourth compartments. Marbled endpapers with engraved library label. Printed by Edward O. Jenkins, 114 Nassau Street, NY. With Index, and numbered continuously, 572pp. with the plates unnumbered. There are no colored fashion plates (but 4 seasonal black and white plates) or other chromolithographed "extras" as found in earlier editions. As usual the edition features poetry, articles on non-fiction topics, such as patent medicine and medical advances, book and art reviews, and short stories, some illustrated, of travel, romance, the immigrant experience in America, and biographical sketches. Other contributors not mentioned above include Fanny Forrester, Mrs. Lydia Sigourney, Henry G. Lee, Mrs. C.H. Butler, Mrs. E.S. Swift and Miss Maria J. McIntosh.**CONDITION: Very Good. Front board sunned. Light marks and sunning to spine. Wear to corners and joints. Inside, front hinge is cracked, with a superficial, minor split at rear endpaper. Old ink signature to ffep. Perforated library stamp to title page, with date stamp to gutter of Index. Card pocket and an unused stamp label to rear e.p. Pages are generally quite clean with the odd bit of finger soiling. Moderately age toned. Foxing seen to verso of plates and the pages facing them. Item is otherwise well preserved and sturdy. CONTENTS include: "A Farewell Editorial" and several travel articles from the magazine's departing founding editor John Inman, who manned the editorial helm of "The Columbian" from 1844 -1848. New editor STEPHEN M. CHESTER, a former contributor, debuts in these pages and commits to publishing fewer fashion spreads in favor of additional highbrow steel engravings and mezzotints, with representative artists here including Britain's THOMAS ALLOM, W.H. BARTLETT and BENJAMIN WEST. ***OF SPECIAL INTEREST, the poetry includes EDGAR ALLAN POE's "To ----- ----- -----," (p. 138) commonly said to refer to his super-fan, MRS. FRANCES S. OSGOOD (1811-1850) of Boston. Poe's work is under his own name here. The devoted Mrs.Osgood has at least one poetic contribution as well, with "Stanzas for Music." (p. 116). Both works appear as part of the March 1848 issue. While Mrs. Osgood's relationship with Poe has been variously described as a platonic literary fascination (and one at least initially supported by her husband,) and mainly in the form of adulating poetry, there were injudicious letters written as well, apparently. Another contributor, the poet and author Mrs. E.F. ELLET (1818-1877) instigated gossip about Osgood's letters to Poe which landed the latter in hot water with his wife, Osgood's husband and her brother. Other literary figures of the day including Boston's Margaret Fuller appealed directly to Poe to return the supposed letters. All this took place in 1845 and it is perhaps a testament to the damage done to the reputations of all those involved that this New York magazine is regurgitating the matter three years later! See Mrs. Ellets two short stories: "Marry in Your Own Sphere (p.57), "Eugene Le Mars" (p. 145), and the poem "The Prism, the Flower and the Sunbeam, (p. 152). "The Columbian Magazine" ceased publication the following year, 1849. Please also see our bound annuals for these issues of 1845, 1846 and 1847. (AMJ). Various, including T. Allom, W.H. Bartlett and Benj. West, as etched by A.L. Dick, M. Osborne, O. Pelton and J.J. White, et al (illustratore). Book.…
