August 29, 1814, Artillery Broadside: "Capt. Sullivan's Synopsis of Company Drill at the Cannon," Published by West & Blake, Boston, MA, Very Fine. 16.75" x 16" uncolored broadside. Light toning, with a few absences, folds, and torn edges. Crisp, clear typeface, featuring a diagram of an artillery unit, an explanation of how to load and fire a "battering piece," and a grid with commands and corresponding actions for each of the ten members of the artillery unit. Notation on verso in brown ink reads: "Capt. Sullivan's Synopsis of Company Drill at the Cannon." An intriguing find from the War of 1812 era.
