[Charles Agvent]

One of several signed Susan B. Anthony items from our new catalog 
containing 45 items related to WOMEN AND THEIR QUEST FOR EQUAL RIGHTS, 
recently posted on our website.

ANTHONY, Susan B.; STANTON, Elizabeth Cady; & GAGE, Matilda J. 
(editors). HISTORY OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE. Volume IV. New York: Susan B. 
Anthony, (1902). First Edition. The fourth volume, eventually complete 
in six volumes, in publisher's purple cloth. Illustrated with 
copperplate and photogravure engravings. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by Anthony 
on the front free endpaper: "Miss Mariana T. Folsom/Austin -- Texas/With 
best love and/earnest wishes for Texas -- and/for yourself --/Susan B. 
Anthony/Rochester - N.Y./June 11 1903-." Light soiling to the endpapers 
with little effect on the signed page. Some wear and soiling to cloth, 
rear hinge shaken but covers tight. Very Good.

Mariana Folsom (1845-1910) was a minister, lecturer, and reform 
activist. By 1879 she was a lecturer for the Iowa Woman Suffrage 
Association, and in 1881 she moved to Texas where she was to become a 
leader in the National American Woman Suffrage Association and the Texas 
Equal Rights Association. (#016097)        $3,500.00
