THE BAY STATE DEMOCRAT, Boston, Sept. 7, 1839  Although there were several newspapers with this name, this is the campaign paper that existed for just 12 issues each year ending just before the November elections.
This is the number 3 issue, followed with political reporting supporting--obviously--the democratic party.
Eight pages, ornate masthead, never bound nor trimmed, 12 by 15 inches, a bit of damp staining, good condition.
