DAVENPORT DAILY GAZETTE, Iowa, August 21, 1861

* Rare title from the Civil War
* Abraham Lincoln proclamation


This rare title from the Midwestern United States has some Civil War reporting and several interesting advertisements of the day.
This issue measures 25 x 18 inches, not fragile as newsprint from this era was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Complete in 4 pages, light toning at the central fold, nice condition.
