Description: Dated 1889 and measuring about 6" x 9-1/4", and 72 pages long, this paperback book is titled "Report of the Proceedings of the Harvard Republican Meeting held at Tremont Temple, Boston, Friday evening, November 2, 1888." The subtitle on the front cover lists addresses given by Rev. Edward Everett Hale, Hon. E. Rockwood Hoar, Hon. George D. Robinson, Col. N. P. Hallowell, Hon. George F. Hoar, Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge, and Hon. John D. Long. The text also shows a letter read into the record from future President Theodore Roosevelt, as well as transcripts of addresses given by John M. Merriam, Curtis Guild, Jr., and D. T. Dickinson at an overflow meeting held the same evening at the Meionaon meeting hall in Boston. Not coincidentally, the meeting took place just a few days before the 1888 Presidential Election, in which Republican Benjamin Harrison narrowly defeated incumbent Democrat President Grover Cleveland. An ink presentation on the front cover reads "Frank B. Hall. Compliments of Charles M. Thayer, '89." I don't know who Frank B. Hall was, but the name "C. M. Thayer" shows up on the title page verso as a Class of 1889 member of the Executive Committee of the Republican Club of Harvard University. It is in solid and readable condition, with the binding nice and tight, but some chips and tears and creases around the edges of the cover. International Buyers – Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges. We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws. COMBINED SHIPPING: See our seller list for other interesting and unusual items, in fact bid on several and you might save on shipping and handling. If you buy multiple items, and if it's feasible and cost-effective for us to ship the items together, we will gladly consider requests to combine shipping at a reduced cost. Just e-mail us, and we can provide combined shipping cost estimates on a case-by-case basis. Depending on weight and other considerations, we typically offer full shipping rate for the first item, then 50 cents or $1.00 per item. And if you are purchasing multiple items, please make the payment as a single payment, rather than trying to pay for each item separately. Oh, and this may sound obvious, but we can't reduce the shipping charges for items on which we offer free shipping. PAYPAL: Please note that, due to Paypal's ridiculously over-protective "Confirmed Address" policy, we no longer honor requests for shipment to third party addresses, and we reserve the right to refuse to ship to unconfirmed addresses, especially overseas. If you have any questions about this, please contact us prior to bidding so we can review your options. If you have any complaints about this, please contact Paypal. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING COSTS: If the eBay auto-calculator is not responding, or if you think our shipping costs are too high, please contact us prior to bidding to determine your shipping options and costs. Repeat, prior to bidding, please. FEEDBACK: Because of abuses we've experienced in the past, we have totally given up on the eBay feedback system, so we neither give nor expect feedback. Please, therefore, do not contact us after the auction asking us to leave feedback. If you ever have a problem with an item you purchase from us, please contact us directly about it before giving negative feedback or seller ratings, and especially before invoking eBay's dreaded Grand Tribunal in processes like "Return Requests" or "Opening an Item Not as Described Case." No one is perfect, and we occasionally mis-describe something, or an item arrives late or gets damaged in the mail, but we are always quick to respond to a problem and set it straight in the most mutually agreeable way.
