May 02, 1855

THE CORRECTOR, Sag-Harbor, (Long Island), New York, May 2, 1855   Page 3 has a rare ad for "Photographs & Daguerreotypes... [by] Douglass & Van Scoy", noteworthy early American pioneers in photography. Other news of the day, including a thought provoking short story which tells of a young girl who leaves home to find a job in order to help support her widowed mother, is found throughout. See images for details.
Complete in 4 pages, a bit of foxing, but in overall good condition.
