ENACTMENT OF THE TREATY FOR THE UNIVERSAL ABOLITION OF THE SLAVE TRADE. Folio (11.75 inches). 6 & 7 Victoria, Chapter 50. Caption title, pages 457-476. Royal coat of arms. Neatly extracted from a bound volume. This multilateral agreement to abolish the African slave trade was signed by representatives of Great Britain, Austria, France, Prussia, and Russia on 20 December 1841.
