NEW-YORK EVENING POST, Dec. 1, 1802 The ftpg. has a notice about the "King Of Beasts" which includes a nice woodcut of a lion (see inset). Gives details about where to see a local display this "beautiful African Lion", plus mention that he was caught "in the woods of Goree, in Africa". Lite rubbing in unrelated text.
