Great condition, and the XYZ Affair...

Item # 709044 ·
COLUMBIAN CENTINEL, Boston, April 18, 1798  Perhaps the finest feature of this issue is the condition, as it has never-trimmed margins and is in great condition. A fine example of a late 18th century Boston newspaper.
Pages 2 and 3 do have some content relating to the XYZ Affair, a diplomatic incident between French and United States diplomats that resulted in a limited, undeclared war known as the Quasi-War.
Four pages, great condition.

Item from our most recent catalog - #367 - released for June, 2026
