original 1811 Connecticut Merchants complaint to Congress on West Indies trade:
$25.00

Fascinatingdocument from January 18, 1811 - Memorial of the Merchants Of New Haven, in the State of Connecticut.Report goes on to relate that most of the West India islands have fallen into the hands of Great Britain, and with that, property, cargoes of goods and business in general, has become very difficult. They would like Congress to address the situation.
I wonder if this was one of the precursors to the War of 1812.Condition is good. Guaranteed original document from 1811. Registered APS Dealer. Notes: often I include multiple images of the lot to give the full flavor-the lot description will indicate whether just one or several items are being offered - too, these images are rarely the exact size of the item itself. All sales will run their full time allotment - any pre-sale closing offers, though appreciated, will be respectfully declined.If you have questions regarding the item, shipping, payment options, etc - please don’t hesitate to ask!

Shipping will be combined for multiple purchases.

Please note the following for shipments outside the US: on single or combined items totaling over $50, I may require Registration, which would be an additional cost to be added to the invoice total.

Kansas residents will automatically have Sales Tax added to their invoice (unless of course, there is a Resale #).

Thank you for offerding!

PS: Do you have collections of covers and paper you would like to sell?
