THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 7, 1861
* Philippi West Virginia
* Harper's Ferry West Virginia
This genuine newspaper has a wealth of Civil War reporting from during Abraham Lincoln's administration. Among the one column headlines on the Civil War are:
* THE SECESSION REBELLION
* Rebels At Harper's Ferry Retreating
* The Advance Upon West Virginia
* Seven Thousand Federal Troops at Philippa and Grafton
* The Philippa Affair
and more. (see)
Complete in eight pages. This issue is not fragile as newsprint from this era was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Close cut along the spine but no text loss, otherwise in good condition.
