Nice lot of 18th and 19th-century ephemera, including 6 registrars, account books, and other texts, the oldest of which is a 1795 almanac for northeastern states. There is also a book for infantry tactics which dates to 1830. There are several militia documents, all of which are pre-1825, 1 is from Vermont and dates to 1816, and the other from New Hampshire dates to 1821. There is also a rendition of the Battle of Bunker Hill, which is dated 1846, and an image of a mounted solider that appears to read "Garde du Corps..." but is mostly illegible. All pieces exhibit blemishes typical of old paper, including creases, folds, yellowing, edge wear, blemishes, etc. CONDITION: Fair-good.
