COLUMBIAN CENTINEL (No. 2663; Boston, MA; Wednesday, October 11, 1809)

Boston: Columbian Centinel, 1809.

One large bifolium sheet printed on all four sides--page size is roughly 14” x 20”; the paper is still quite supple; some general edgewear; faint water-staining; a fantastic snapshot of history with local and international news which includes updates of Europe in the midst of the Napoleonic Wars as well as the endlessly entertaining classifieds ranging from French dancing schools to a lost “plumb colored silk Shawl, with a variegated border.”.

Very Good binding
