Item # 613691

GLEASON'S WEEKLY LINE-OF-BATTLE SHIP, Boston, Feb. 12, 1859 

* Rare title w/ great masthead

One of the more decorative front pages to be seen with the very ornate masthead (see), plus each page is bordered in a patriotic theme. The front page shows the: "New Post Office, Summer St., Boston" . Two other prints inside plus the back page shows: "Ship Maria, of New Bedford, the Oldest Ship in the United States" with a related article.
Eight pages, some light foxing & damp stain at 2 corners, generally very nice.
