ROYAL AMERICAN MAGAZINE, Boston, May, 1774  This famous and extremely rare magazine was published by Isaiah Thomas. Rarely do issues come on the market.
The full title/contents page features an engraving by Paul Revere, heightening interest in this title. It is formatted very much like Gentleman's Magazine & other 18th century magazines with a wealth of literary & other content.
But fortunately included is a printing of the infamous Boston Port Bill, which closed the port from all commerce and ordered the citizens of Boston to pay a large fine to compensate for the tea thrown into the river during the Boston Tea Party. The full text of the Act of Parliament is included, taking four pages.
This is damaged issue as it is lacking the last 5+ leaves. We offer this primarily for the desirable title/contents page with the Paul Revere engraving. 
Contains 24 of what was likely 36 pages. Various foxing but otherwise in good condition. Offered at a dramatically lower price.
