Verlag: Cincinnati, E. Shepard for the Editor (O. M. Mitchel), 1846-`1848., 1848
Anbieter: Alexanderplatz Books, New York, NY, USA
A nearly complete run of the first American astronomical journal. Cincinnati, imprint varies, 1846-1848. Vol. I (1846), nos. 1-14 (of 16), vol. II, no. 1-12, vol. III, nos. 1-2 (1846-1848). The issues of vol. 1 are bound in half-leather and marbled boards, the remainder are in original wrappers. 4to. Almost every issue has a lithographic plate. Good condition overall, considerably foxed. Also includes loose the indexes for vols. 1 and 2, the latter in poor condition. The first volume, besides lacking the last two issues, is missing the view of the Cincinnati Observatory. The primitive but beautiful lithographic plates solved the technical problem of depicting astronomical objects by showing them in white and gray on a jet black background (a plate of Biela's Comet even has added red touches). As far back as 1877, the journal was considered rare and hard to obtain (Nature, vol. 15, pp. 49, 198). Obscurely, it died with the first and second issues of the third volume, so obscurely that the preeminent antiquarian firm of William Reese once erroneously cataloged a set up to the end of vol. 2 as all probably published. The original wrappers add interesting content, preserving pleas from Mitchel for support from subscribers, which evidently was not enough to support the continuation of the journal. Ormsby Macknight Mitchel (1809-1862) had a diverse career, lastly as a successful general in the Union Army during the American Civil War, in which post he died of disease.
