Sobre este item
London: Charles Eyre and William Strahan, 1780. Title page + pp. 691-696. Folio. First edition. Printed on laid paper. Disbound from larger volume. "An Act to allow the exportation of provisions, goods, wares, and merchandize, from Great Britain, to certain towns, ports or places, in North America, which are or may be under the protection of His Majesty's arms; and from such towns, ports or places, to Great Britain, and other parts of His Majesty's dominions." The effect of this act was to amend the American Prohibitory Act of 1776 to to allow the resumption of trade betwenn Britain and those parts of the American colonies that remained under British control. The Prohibitory Act had been the final straw that led to the American Revoltion, but if Parliament thought the 1780 revisions would reverse British fortunes in the colonies, they would be disappointed: The Restoration of Trade Act was too little and too late. The document is in very good condition: clean and bright, with 4 tiny bookworm holes in bottom margins--well away from the text.. First Edition. Paper. Very Good. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. Manuscript.
