TABLE OF CONTENTS, THE TOKEN
This is the rough draft of a mega-table-of-contents for The Token,
with first and last lines of poems, and first phrase or sentence of prose.
Stripped of links to the images & of the html at beginning & end, the
table of contents makes a dandy .txt file which can be sorted in DOS.
Identification of authors is being worked on very slowly. A number of
identifications come from American Literary Annuals & Gift Books,
by Ralph Thompson (1936; repr. N.p.: Archon Books, 1967). If you know who
probably wrote an unidentified piece, please write to me.
Engraved plates tended to be made from well-known paintings, which I'm also
in the process of identifying. Toward that end, & because finding the
written texts from these annuals is a bit easier than finding the engravings,
I've added images. The link ("smpl") is at the end of the line describing
the plate; the image will appear in a separate window. The images are quick
digital snapshots intended to give information & are not reproduction quality.
They are, however, alarmingly large. Again, if you can identify an unidentified
painting, please write to me.
My collection contains all 14 volumes. The copies for 1829 and 1834 are
missing a leaf or two; & several plates scattered through the 14 volumes
are also missing. As I find missing plates and/or pages, I'll include them
in the index.
Several works were reprinted by other publishers in later annuals. As I
find these, the information is added to this file. The Garland, for 1831
sometimes included the names of authors not included when the piece appeared
in The Token. (It also reprinted some works from The Legendary, edited by
N. P. Willis, which Samuel Goodrich published in two volumes in 1828.)
The engravings -- expensive to produce -- were used in other publications.
As I find these, the information is listed here and at the appropriate
engraving.
-- The Outcast, by Samuel Goodrich (Boston: Russell, Shattuck & Williams,
1836), included several engravings.
-- E. Sands (New York, NY) published an album with 20 engravings, 18 of which
were from the 1831, 1833, and 1835 volumes of the Token. My copy has
several dated entries; the earliest is dated 1 July 1838. Because it was a
gift to Susan Bliss by her sister, it's referred to on this page as the
"Bliss album."
-- The Youth's Keepsake (NY: George A. Leavitt, 1869) reprinted
several engravings; according to Frederick W. Faxon's Literary Annuals and
Gift Books (reprinted Pinner, Middlesex: Private Libraries Association,
1973), this is The American Juvenile Keepsake for 1834, ed. by Barbara
Hofland (New York: C. Wells, 1834), with three fewer illustrations.

==========
[While The Token ceased publication with the volume for 1842, the title was
sold & appears on at least one book published by Leavitt & Allen, who published,
republished, and cobbled together works for children and adults. The book's
information is included here to make the identification of this volume easier
& because--frankly--it's bizarre & interesting.]
The book seems to be reprint of a work published in the U. S. in 1838:
Woman as She Should Be, by Hubbard Winslow, and Woman, in Her
Social and Domestic Character, by Elizabeth Sandford [Mrs. John Sandford].
Sandford's work was originally published in England in 1831 and was reprinted
alone in the U. S. in 1833 (Boston: Leonard C. Bowles). Leavitt & Allen
"prettified" the text with engravings & a surpassingly tawdry cover.
