Interesting title & newspaper...
OLLA PODRIDA, Oxford, England, Oct. 27, 1787 This was a short-lived publication from London\ with surviving archives spanning from 1787 to 1788. Its name, derived from the Spanish term "olla podrida" meaning "rotten pot" or a mixed stew, likely hints at the diverse array of topics and articles it featured.
This period in history was marked by significant upheaval—think of the American Revolution’s aftermath and the early rumblings of the French Revolution—which may have shaped the newspaper’s perspectives and content.
Complete in six pages, 7 1/4 by 11 3/4 inches, very nice condition.
