LOUISVILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL, Kentucky, November 11, 1840 

* Rare pre Civil War title from Kentucky
* Illustrated slave advertisements


Page 3 has three notices offering rewards for runaways described, in part, as: "...my man, named John..." "...a bright mulatto...by the name of Walker, his true name is Jake..." & "...a black boy by the name of Daniel...", each with a small engraving of a runaway.

News of the day throughout with other ads. Minor margin wear, otherwise in nice condition.
