Description:
Philadelphia, PA: Joseph & William Kite. VG-. 1842-43. 1st Printing. Leather & Boards. This bound volume sixteen containing consecutive weekly issues of this Quaker weekly journal. Not to be confused with the British paper of t he same name which is still in publication, this is an American Journa l and predates the UK version. Bound in quarter brown leather and marb led boards with black leather spine label printed in gold. About 11.5" X 9.5" inch size, 416 pages. A VG- copy. The leather spine has some c racks and chips including a 4cm chip to the head of the spine. Part of the black spine label is also chipped, leaving only the "END" of the title The Friend. The interior has foxing and tanning through-out, but the text is still quite readable. The hinges are tight with good sewi ng. The articles run the gambit from abolition of slavery, railway an d steamboat traveling to bee cultivation. Also numerous deaths and mar riages are listed. A solid copy of an important Quaker publication. .
