THE LONDON MAGAZINE, England, August, 1776  Although there are 2 1/2 pages of reports headed: "American Affairs" with accounts of the Revolutionary War, certainly the prime content is that which consumes  most of the back page.
Prefaced with: "The following is the substance of the declaration of independency by the representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled, July 4...", what follows is the text of the Declaration of Independence, signed in type at its conclusion: John Hancock, President.
Do note: this is not the complete text, as referenced in its introduction. About half of the document is lacking, substituted with commentary by the publisher noting: "The Congress next recite a number of proceedings detrimental to the colonies, most of which have been already mentioned at different times, from the resolutions of their several assemblies, with this difference, that they now attribute the oppressions to a great person instead of the ministry & parliament, s at their former meetings. They then conclude this:..." and what follows is the conclusion of the Declaration of Independence.
See the photos for the full text as printed here.
Note also that perhaps the most famous quotes from the document are included: the beginning: "When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another...", as well as: "We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness...".
A terrific opportunity for a period printing of the Declaration of Independence offered at a dramatically lowered price.
Both full page plates called for are present.
Complete in 56 pages, 5 1/4 by 8 1/4 inches, full title/contents page with a terrific engraving of the London skyline, great condition.
