THE INDEPENDENT GAZETTEER OR THE CHRONICLE OF FREEDOM, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, July 12, 1787.

* Original Constitutional Convention era
* Year of United States government est.
* 18th century America


Great to have a newspaper from Philadelphia during the summer the Constitutional Convention was in session (but no reports).

The front page is entirely taken up with ads, as is the back page, with various news items from Europe, Newport, Worcester, New York, Richmond, Wilmington, and Philadelphia on pages 2 & 3, along with a few ads.

Four pages, 9 1/2 by 11 1/2 in., minor margin wear, an archival mend to a page 2 tear, generally good.
