January 01, 1686
THE OBSERVATOR, London, England, 1684-1686
A dialogue newspaper founded by Sir Roger L'Estrange, a Tory pamphleteer, as a vehicle for attacking dissenters and Whigs. This early singlesheet newspaper has the old style type making it great for framing (see photo) particularly with the over 300+ year old date clearly visible in the dateline.
Whereas the photo is "generic", the issue you will receive will be dated within the range of 1684-1686 and will have a similar look. Measures 8 x 12 inches and is printed on high quality, rag paper. Very nice condition.
