DEREIZENDE NIEUWS-BODE, Amsterdam, June 12, 1837  

* Uncommon publication
* Nice masthead engraving


A curious little newspaper in Dutch, perhaps most notable for the large, nice engraving on the front page of a man on horseback "trumpeting" the news. Note the iconic windmill in the background. The title translates to "Traveling News Messenger".
Measures 6 1/4 by 7 1/2 inches, 4 pages, great condition.
