Original wrappers. Near Fine. Frederick Peck became a prominent figure in the realm of American autograph collecting and had garnered notable recognition in literary works such as "Word Shadows of the Great" by Madigan and "Autographs, a Key to Collecting" by Miss Benjamin. Peck's personal collection stands out as one of the most comprehensive assemblies of autographs from the signers of the Declaration of Independence; notably, some of these letters, such as those by Benjamin Rush and William Whipple, directly pertain to the Declaration itself. The collection also encompassed correspondence between various signers. In addition to the array of signers' autographs, Peck's collection featured an extensive presidential section. Spanning from the earliest presidency to the early 1930s, the compilation includes letters from every U.S. President during their time in office. Beyond the signers and presidents, Frederick Peck's collection included letters from Benedict Arnold during his days as an American patriot before Quebec, letters from George Washington in his capacities as both president and commander-in-chief, and an assortment of letters and documents from various Revolutionary War Generals, including luminaries such as General John Stark and Joseph Warren. Peck's literary collection extended beyond manuscripts, encompassing first-editions books; this included the Lord Leigh set of the first four folio editions of Shakespeare, a copy of the first issue of Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass," and a first edition of the Rubaiyat presented in an exhibition binding by Sangorsky & Sutcliffe.…
