”JOIN, or DIE” Newspaper From Benjamin Franklin’s ”Pennsylvania Gazette” in 1754 — The Most Influential Political Cartoon in America’s History & Only Known Copy Apart From the Library of Congress

The most influential political cartoon in the history of America, the ”JOIN, or DIE” severed rattlesnake designed by Benjamin Franklin and published in his ”Pennsylvania Gazette” on 9 May 1754. This incredibly scarce newspaper is the very first printing of the ”JOIN, or DIE” cartoon, and the only known copy apart from one other housed in the permanent collection at the Library of Congress.

Frustrated by the colonists’ inability to join forces against westward expansion by the French, Franklin created this cartoon of a rattlesnake, cut into 8 pieces symbolizing the American colonies, to dramatically impart the effective message: join together as one cohesive body, or die. Along with the cartoon, Franklin published an editorial in the newspaper, urging the colonists to work together, reading in part, ”…The Confidence of the French in this Undertaking seems well-grounded on the present disunited State of the British Colonies…while our Enemies have the very great Advantage of being under one Direction, with one Council, and one Purse…”

Four page newspaper (without advertising) measures 9.75” x approximately 15”, with an irregularly trimmed top edge. Expert restoration to head of snake, and light uniform toning, consistent with age. Newspaper has been well-preserved, in very good to near fine condition. One of the most important newspapers in America’s colonial history and a cornerstone of her philosophical underpinnings. Sold for $50,000.

King Charles II 1660 Proclamation From The First Month of Restoration — Demanding Those Responsible For The Execution of His Father King Charles I Turn Themselves In For Murder & Treason

Historically important proclamation by King Charles II from 1660, aggressively targeting those who had taken part in the beheading of his father, Charles I. The Commonwealth of England abolished the monarchy as an institution during its Civil War in 1649, and replaced it with a Parliament under Oliver Cromwell in a period known as the Interregnum. In accordance with the wishes of the people, the throne was reinstated in 1660, and the executed King’s son, Charles II, returned from exile in France to rule as King in May of 1660. Broadside is dated one month later, 6 June 1660. With a vengeance for those who aided in his father’s regicide, Charles II’s Proclamation reads like a most wanted list, demanding: “the persons therein named, who sate, gave judgment, and assisted in that horrid and detestable murder of his majesties royal father of blessed memory, to appear and render themselves within fourteen days, under pain of being excepted from pardon…” The proclamation names 44 men charged with treason and murder who were at large. By this time, some of the implicated listed here had died, some were pardoned, and some fled the country, with Dixwell, Whalley, and Goffe famously reuniting in Connecticut. The worst offenders were hanged, drawn and quartered, or imprisoned for life. The Restoration not only provided for the monarchy to resume, but went so far as not to acknowledge its temporary cessation; King Charles II’s reign was officially determined to have begun immediately upon his father’s death in 1649. The dating reflects this in a line printed at the bottom: “Given at our Court at Whitehall the sixth day of June 1660 in the Twelfth Year of Our Reign / Printed by John Bill and Christopher Barker / Printers to our King’s most excellent majesty 1660.” Broadsheet measures 9.5″ x 14.75″, with two ornate woodcut emblems, including a royal arms at top, and a large woodcut initial “C.” A browned vertical crease runs through center, else near fine. An important and scarce document from the dawn of the famous English Restoration period. Sold for $20,000.
