COLUMBIAN CENTINEL (No. 2668; Boston, MA; Saturday, October 28, 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 including some loss to the top margin of the front page; a fantastic snapshot of history with local and international news which includes updates from Europe in the midst of the Napoleonic Wars as well as the endlessly entertaining classifieds; interesting ad for a bookstore for sale; as well as auctions notices for everything from real estate to household goods.
Very Good binding.
