Sorry, but this item is no longer available. Please be in touch at info@rarenewspapers.com if you would like to be placed on a want list or are interested in a potential alternate issue.

July 22, 1873
THE SEMI-WEEKLY ARGUS, Port Townsend, Washington Territory, July 22, 1873  Quite early from Washington, and 16 years before it became a state. Half of the front page is taken up with ads including one for the "Seattle Brewery" (see photo), plus page two  has "Mr. Garfield's Railroad Propositions" and other news items.
Four pages of small folio size measuring 9 by 12 3/4 inches, in very nice, clean condition. I believe this is the very last issue we have in our inventory.
