THE LONDON JOURNAL, England, December 7, 1723
* Early American Indians
* Rare 18th century title
Regardless of content, this is one of my favorite 18th century issues because of the nice masthead engraving along, showing the skyline of London with insets in the upper corners (see). But this issue also have American content, with a pg. 3 item beginning: "Our last letters from New England give a particular account of the several conferences at Boston between the General Court of the Province of the Massachusetts Bay, & the delegates of the six Indian Nations..." with various particulars (see).
Complete in 6 pages, the back leaf has an archival mend and a piece from the blank bottom margin, otherwise nice. Measures 8 1/2 by 13 1/4 inches.
