THE LONDON MERCURY, London, England, Oct. 6, 1682  A very difficult title to find and one which apparently only lasted for 56 issues. This is issue #53. This is formatted very much like the more common "London Gazette" but a bit larger in size & considerably more scarce. Various news reports of the day with some advertisements on the back page.
A single sheet issue measuring 7 3/4 by 12 1/4 inches, wide, untrimmed margins and in quite nice condition.
