From this legendary town in California...



Item # 130176 DAILY EVENING POST, San Francisco, California, 1874  Few towns from the Old West are more legendary than San Francisco, springing to life with the nearby discovery of gold in 1848 at Sutter's Mill. Its population of 1000 in 1848 swelled to 25,000 by December, 1849.
This issue is four pages and contains various news and advertisements of the day, some 25 years after the beginning of the Gold Rush and long before the devastating earthquake of 1906.The photo shown is representative of the look and condition of the issue you will receive, but actual dates will vary in 1874.

Note: The issue is quite large and must be folded at the mid-fold line in order to fit within a large folder.
