DEADWOOD DAILY PIONEER, Black Hills, (South Dakota) May 25, 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 & Mill" "Big Deals" "A Riot in Oklahoma" "Quarantined Against Texas Cattle" and more. Also a great wealth of illustrated advertisements.
Four pages, irregular at the top portion of the right margin, some older mends inside, good condition.
