Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bostonian Society Publications, Vol. 3 It was in 1817 that a "Topographical and Historical Description of Boston" was issued by Charles Shaw, Esq. and the title page states it was printed and published by Oliver Spear. As bearing on the publication the following document in the collections of the New England Historic-Genealogical Society is of interest. It was given by Col. Albert H. Hoyt who obtained it from Robert Clarke the bookseller of Cincinnati. It was an assignment by Giles E. Weld of Boston, printer, to Thomas Brewer, father of Gardiner Brewer, dated 19 Nov., 1816. He sold to him for $300 all his right and interest in a certain book "which I am now printing" called "The Picture of Boston" in all "twelve hundred volumes of said work which I do hereby agree to have finished and completed in sheets by the thirtieth day of November instant." Also his right to all subscriptions subject however "to ye right and claim which Charles Shaw, Esquire, the editor of the said work" had unto the same. 18 April 1817 Thomas Brewer for $300, paid, assigned all his interest to Charles Shaw.
