DEADWOOD DAILY PIONEER, Black Hills, (South Dakota) July 17, 1889 

* Rare publication
* Famous wild West town
* "Wild Bill" Hickok fame


This city would arguably be--along with Tombstone & Dodge City--one of the more famous of all the towns from the rough & tumble days of the Old West, and only rarely do such issues come to light. It attracted larger-than-life Old West figures including Wyatt Earp, Calamity Jane, and Wild Bill Hickok (who was killed there). "Union List of Newspapers" notes only two institutions have but scattered 19th century issues of  this title.
Among the articles are: "Mine and Mill" "Railroad Visitors" "A Great Work Completed" and more including a variety of local tidbits. Also a great wealth of illustrated advertisements.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, very nice condition.
