703 United States imageHistorically Important Collection of Letters Pertaining to the Postmastership of New York City, 1842 to 1849, consisting of 18 letters and printed documents, all pertaining to Col. James (John) Lorimer Graham, (New York City's Postmaster from 03/14/1842 to 05/02/1845). We note letters either to or from famous people, such as two letters to Zachary Taylor (President of the U.S. from March 8, 1849 to 1850, one dated on the first day of his office March 8, 1849 and the other one month later), Hon. Jacob Collamer (Postmaster General from 1849 to 1850), Charles A. Wickliffe (Postmaster General from 1841-1845), J. Phillips Phoenix (U.S. Representative, 1843/1851), Robert H. Morris (Mayor of New York City, 1841-1844), and others. Some of the early letters include one from the Postmaster General to Graham, asking him to investigate one of his Night Clerks (probably due to misappropriation of funds) plus another explaining that the people handling the foreign mails are committing fraud, etc. The two printed documents are one by Graham in 1844 and one dated 1845 announcing his "retirement", etc. The letter from the Mayor of NYC asks Graham to put aside any letters addressed to a "Crouckright" and let him know immediately if he finds any. Some of these letters, including those to the President of the United States, pertain to important New York residents trying to get Graham re-instated as Postmaster. Graham was instrumental in postal reform in New York, including postal rates, despatch arrangements, etc. A most fascinating read, and an important aspect of the history of New York City's postal history. Faults as expected, but overall fine or better and all documents are scanned online.
