September 20, 1861

THE NEW YORK HERALD, New York City, September 20, 1861 

* Lexington, Missouri 
* Mayfield, Kentucky

This Genuine newspaper has a Wealth of Civil War reporting from during Abraham Lincoln's administration.

Among the one column headlines on the Civil War are: "THE REBELION" "IMPORTANT FROM MISSOURI" "Attack on Lexington by Rebels Under Gen. Price" "Frightful Slaughter and Repulse of the Enemy" "IMPORTANT FROM KENTUCKY" "The Rebels in Possession of and Fortifying Mayfield" "The Battle At Lexington" "THE REBEL ARMY" and more.

Complete in eight pages. This issue is not fragile as newsprint from this era was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Light damp staining near the top, otherwise in nice condition.
