THE NEW-YORK MERCURY, May 31, 1756
* Very early & rare from America
* French and Indian War era
* Colonial original
Newspapers from colonial America dated before the 1760's are becoming extremely rare. This is a very nice issue from the midst of the French & Indian War with pages 2 and 3 having some nice war-related content, most of which can be seen in the photos as it is too much to describe here.
The front page has an item noting: "...the utmost indignation upon so unjust & daring an attempt as that of invading these kingdoms in revenge for the generous & steady conduct His Majesty has held in maintaining the just rights & possessions of His Crown & subjects in North America, against the unprovoked aggressions & hostilities originally commenced on the part of France...".
The war-related content on pages 2 & 3 is more detailed, as can be seen in the photos.
Complete in 4 pages, never-trimmed margins, and in nice condition. Not only a rare and early title from America, but with good French & Indian War content as well.
