Boston: Stimpson & Clapp, 1832. pp [1]-72, 41-43, [1 blank]. Disbound, widely scattered foxing. Ink signature, "Seth Williams" on title page. Good+. OCLC records two different printings in 1832 from Stimpson & Clapp, of 75 pages and (40, 9-43) pages. In this copy, the text reads appropriately; evidently the printer combined sheets from the two printings to make a complete pamphlet. The Convention endorses the Clay-Sergeant ticket for the race against Andrew Jackson, and denounces "the imbecility of the existing Administration...which substitutes its own will for the law of the land." Proceedings are reported, Electors are listed. The Convention's 'Address to the People of Massachusetts' and Daniel Webster's speech to the Convention are printed. Sabin 36741. Not in Wise & Cronin.

Washington: Printed at the Office of the National Journal, 1831. 32pp. Gathered signatures, stitched, untrimmed. Light soil and wear, light institutional stamping. Good+. The first Convention of the Whig Party [still called National Republicans here], created by opposition to Andrew Jackson and, especially, his veto of the Maysville Road bill. The Whig platform of federal support for internal improvements, a protective tariff to nurture infant industries, and a strong Bank of the United States is articulated here. This Journal lists the Convention members, the proceedings, the nomination of Clay unanimously for President and John Sergeant for Vice President, their acceptances, and the 'Address of the National Republican Convention to the People of the United States' articulating the Whig creed that would make it a major political force until the slavery crisis dissolved it in the mid-1850's. FIRST EDITION. Sabin 36729. AI 8369 [5]. Not in Eberstadt, Decker.
