November 03, 1635

EXTRAORDINAIRE, Paris, France, October 15, 1635  (date in Roman Numerals: MDCXXXV).

* Earliest newspaper in your collection?

This issue predates the earliest English language newspaper we have in our inventory. This is an "extraordinary" issue which published simultaneously along with the "Gazette" of Paris, the very first regular newspaper published in France which started just 4 years previous in 1631 by Théophraste Renaudot but with influential backing by the powerful Cardinal de Richelieu. A small-size issue of 4 pages, 6 1/4 by 8 3/4 in. All text is in French. A very rare opportunity for not only a rare title but one which predates anything of the like in most other European countries.
