Description
[REVOLUTIONARY WAR]. Price Act; or, The List of the Prices Now in Force in the Town of Ipswich, for the Prevention of Monopoly and Oppression. Salem: E. Russell, 10 February 1777. Broadside (17 ½ x 13 ¼”; 445 x 337 mm), watermark near center, some spotting, light chipping at edges, small hole near title. Contains two woodcuts consisting of a codfish and schooner, a liberty pole, and a grenadier with a sabre; Massachusetts state emblem in upper right corner. A RARE BROADSIDE, printed in large font. Following the passage of the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, and Coercive Acts, colonial Americans banded together to implement policies of non-importation and non-consumption, and turned to local production and exchange for the goods they needed. Between 1764 and 1775, a resistance movement prevailed involving numerous trade boycotts, and economic activity assumed political significance. Evans 15375; Ford 2065; Thomas, History of Printing in America, pp. 153-54.
