GOLD HILL DAILY NEWS, Gold Hill, Nevada, July 5, 1877
* Rare Ghost town publication
* From the Comstock Lode era
A fascinating newspaper from this town just outside of Virginia City, at one point a booming mining town with a population of 8,000. Today it is all but a ghost town with just 191 residents. It was prosperous during the 1870's by mining the famous Comstock Lode.
Not surprisingly a fair amount of mining-related news and advertisements, plus other local & regional reports.
Four pages, archivally rejoined at the spine, some minor margin tears, a bit fragile & should be handled carefully.
