Lot 254
[STREETER COPY] BLATCHFORD, RICHARD M. Extract from a report to the Trustees of the Apalachicola Land Company, by Richard M. Blatchf...
[New York: 1837]. First edition. Original printed yellow wrapper. 9 x 6 inches (23 x 15 cm); 16 pp. Wrapper detached and with chips, margins toned, with the Streeter booklabel to the inside of the rear wrapper.

The Apalachicola Land Company was formed after the 1.4 million acre Forbes Purchase of lands ceded by the Creek and Seminole between 1804-1812 which was then ratified Spanish governor. In 1817, the lands were sold to two merchants who formed the company and fought to settle land claims in then territorial Florida, with most lawsuits settled by the late 1830s. The pamphlet is scarce and we trace no copy at auction since the Streeter sale. Sabin 5878 (calling for a map, not present); Streeter Sale 1240 (this copy, acquired from Eberstadt in 1936).
