A DANGEROUS WEAPON.; VOTE "NO" On AMENDMENT No. 27

(San Francisco): , 1915. 1st Printing. Paper leaf, printed in black ink. Loose leaf. Illustration of a map of San Francisco. 18-1/2" x 9-2/8". Age toning to leaf, some chipping around the edges, small tear to tail, overall clean and bright. Large newspaper clipping from the San Francisco Chronicle - newspaper text to verso. Also to verso is a sticker that reads "1912 - Dec 06 SFCHRONICLE". A VG copy. This ad starts of by stating "Below we print a map which shows at a glance how easy it would be for the Anti-Saloon League and those who are advocating Charter Amendment No. 27 to dry up the leading business sections of San Francisco by tacking them on to residence sections" and continues by saying "Look at the black territory on this map and see for yourself how a residence district extending from the Cliff House to the Fairmont Hotel could easily be tacked on the Exposition site, Powell Street, and Market Street as far down as the Ferry". The ad concludes by saying "No one wants to ruin our splendid hotels, cafes and clubs that are famous the world over. No one wants to prevent them serving Califonria wines with bonafide meals.".

[Californiana / Advertising]

ALs From The CALIFORNIA FARMER And JOURNAL Of USEFUL SCIENCES to "Mes[r]s Merriam" Regarding Advertising. April 4, 1871

San Francisco: , 1871. Light blue wove paper. Now housed in a clear archival mylar sleeve. Single sheet folded once. Body of text to first page only; brief note to last page. 8-7/8" x 5-1/2". Modest wear to edges; two fold lines. Text written in a hasty and somewhat careless hand, affecting overall legibility somewhat. Withal, a VG example. An MS letter from a Warren & Co. representative (signed only "Warren & Co.") to "Mes[r]s Merriam" detailing advertising rates, etc. with a brief explanatory note at rear: "Warren the Cal Farmer M[rc?] 4, 1871"; the date heading the letter has been corrected from March to April 4. We find an advertisement for Webster's Unabridged Dictionary in the May 18, 1871 issue of the California Farmer, and speculate that the Merriam gentlemen in question were George and Charles Merriam, the dictionary's publishers at that time. The letter writer attempts to persuade Merriam to "advertise with us permanently as our paper Circulates to all the Colleges, Seminaries, &c" and offers terms for an extended three-month plan at $30 for a quarter-column ad, with extra leeway in terms of payment "if you give in to us steadily." Additional, the price is in "Gold -- That is California Currency." The pitch doesn't seem to have worked, as we find no further advertisements for Webster's or any other Merriam in the issues of the Farmer immediately following the May ad.
