THE OLD WHIG, OR THE CONSISTENT PROTESTANT, London, Oct. 7, 1736  

* Very rare publication
* Early 18th century original


This is a very rare title, publishing for only 4 years, this being issue #83.
The issue has much reporting from various corners of Europe, with page 2 having a bit concerning the infamous pirate, Angria: "Capt. Massey, commander of the Wilmington, for Bengal, goes Commodore of the India ships now going out & has a considerable quantity of ammunition...order'd all their ships, galley, etc. to be got together to make a descent on Angria the Pirate, in which expedition they are to be join'd by the Dutch, Portuguese...".
Four pages, full red tax stamp on the back page, never-trimmed margins, some dirtiness to a portion of the front page, otherwise nice condition.
