Soft cover. Zustand: Poor. 1st Edition. See photos for condition details. Original softcover publication with pale blue wraps. The exterior is extremely brittle with heavy fading chipping present. The spine covering is almost nonexistent and quadrants of the paper are starting to separate. At the time of the listing everything is in one piece but the binding is quite fragile. The interior pages are toned due to age but are free of any handwriting or bookplates. The heavy chipping and tearing seems to be limited to the exterior covers as the interior pages are in better shape and the numerous foldout charts are still present and attached. There is foxing and spotting as well as edge bumping present. The book is broken up into numerous sections, each one being numbered separately. The proceedings part contains 50 pages but the larger portion of the book is actually the appendix which contains 59 pages, not including foldout charts. This is followed by the Report of the Grand Recorder and also the Grand Receiver, each of which is also numbered separately. Although in rough shape, this is a very rare copy of the A. O. U. W (Ancient Order of United Workmen) of Maryland, New Jersey and Delaware, 11th annual session.…

Very good. Some edge and verso acid toning. Minor closed, stabilized, and reinforced tear from lower left side extending slightly into printed image. Size 26 x 20 Inches. A stunning 1893 Eugene Roncarti chromolithographic broadside for the Ancient Order of United Workmen (AOUW), a fraternal organization that pioneered group insurance coverage for sickness, accidental death, and burial to its members - setting the baseline for modern employer-sponsored insurance benefits. A Closer Look This broadside presents several images and slogans to reflect the function and values of the AOUW. Words and phrases appear throughout, mostly variations on themes of love, fraternity, and mutual support. The organization's motto appears in both Latin and English - 'Alterum Alterius Auxilio Eget' / 'The One Needs the Help of the Other.' Christian imagery is also prevalent, with the Bible appearing three times. This broadside is especially significant because it coincides with the AOUW's 1893 embrace of the Temperance Movement, restricting members from selling 'intoxicating liquors,' another sign of Christian influence on the ostensibly non-religious organization. Other references are more cryptic to a modern viewer but would have been easily deciphered by members. 'CHP' in the middle is most likely an abbreviation of charity, hope, and protection. The organization's logo, including an anchor, shield, and sailboat, are derived from Masonic imagery symbolizing hope and stability. At top, the organization's founding date of October 17, 1868 is noted. At bottom are illustrations demonstrating the benefits of membership, most importantly the payment of a $2,000 death benefit to members families, a considerable sum that was something of a 'calling card' for the AOUW. The Ancient Order of United Workmen The AOUW was founded in 1868 by John Jordan Upchurch, a mechanic for the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad who was dissatisfied with existing fraternal organizations. While broad in its aims and initially focused on working conditions, its efforts quickly shifted to providing financial protection and support (via member dues) for its members and their families in times of illness, injury, or death. In fact, the AOUW was the first fraternal organization in the U.S. to offer sickness, accident, death, and burial insurance to its members. At the time, life insurance was still a novelty only available to the affluent, making the AOUW's adoption of such a program highly innovative and influential. AOUW interacted and affiliated with other fraternal organizations, including the Odd Fellows, further enhancing its influence. By 1885, it was the largest fraternal benefit society in the country. The AOUW also provided a social aspect for its members, organizing events, meetings, and gatherings that allowed individuals from various walks of life to come together, build community, and provide assistance to one another. The organization's first female auxiliary was created in 1873 in Cincinnati and many others were added thereafter. Though not a Masonic organization per se , Upchurch was a Freemason and imbued the organization with many Masonic elements, including secret rituals, Masonic-like symbolism and regalia, a hierarchical structure of lodges, and orders or levels of membership. As with most such orders, members needed to commit to a belief in the Almighty, but otherwise membership was not restricted on the basis of religious denomination or national origin. The AOUW also expanded quickly beyond mechanics to include members of various trades. Membership was, however, restricted by race, as was common, though not universal, for fraternal organizations and unions of the time. Over time, as government and employer-sponsored programs and insurance options became more prevalent, the popularity of fraternal benefit societies like the AOUW declined. The AOUW had also become so large that it was unwieldy; in the early 20th century, it replaced its supreme lodge with.…
