William Lloyd Garrison, editor. The Liberator. Vol. XXXII No. 26, Whole No. 1644. Boston: 27 June 1862. 4 pages, folio, disbound, 17 1/2x 23 3/4 in. 

 

An issue of the influential abolitionist newspaper The Liberator, founded by Boston abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison in 1831. With an unequivocal anti-slavery mission, Garrison used a religious argument rather than a political one, appealing to readers' moral conscience.

 

This issue features the typical abolitionist content, including an article on Parson Brownlow who was on a speaking tour in Cincinnati, Ohio, and an opinion on the "Port Royal Experiment."

Fleischer's Auctions packages and ships most items in-house. We make an effort to ensure the lowest shipping rate possible while still meeting our package safety standards.

Large items, framed pieces, and any item that we are unable to package and ship in-house will be marked in the catalog as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service. Successful bidders winning items marked as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service are responsible for paying the third party directly. We are happy to offer complimentary drop-off service to local third-party packing/shipping companies in Columbus, Ohio. Once an item is dropped off and no longer in our possession, Fleischer's Auctions is not liable for the item's safe handling or shipment to the successful bidder.
