This small-size periodical from the Isthmus of Panama is an interesting  newspaper published by the "Isthmian Canal Commission", given free of charge to employees of the Commission & the Panama Railroad Company. It lasted for several years documenting the  construction of the Panama Canal, considered one of the finest engineering achievements of the early 20th century. It will soon be celebrating its 100th anniversary.

Complete in 8 pages, primarily filled with various technical items relating to the canal project but other items as well. Measures 9 by 11 1/2 inches and in excellent condition.
