One of the smallest newspapers ever printed?
Item # 701680
·
THE BOYS PAPER, Colorado Springs, April 15, 1906 This would rank among the world's smallest newspapers, as it measures just 3 3/4 by 4 1/2 inches, printed on a light brown, wrapper paper-type newsprint.
This would appear to be from the "amateur press", a popular hobby from the late 19th century, typically small in size and rather crudely printed. The content is very quaint.
Nice condition.
