THE FLORIDIAN AND JOURNAL, Tallahassee, Florida, September 2, 1854 Nineteenth century newspapers from Florida are uncommon, particularly those from before the Civil War. Here is such an issue from the capital of Florida, seven years before the Civil War began.
Almost the entire front page is taken up with 18 Acts of Congress, a few including: "An Act to increase the pay of the rank and file of army, & to encourage enlistments." and "An Act declaring the southern boundary of New Mexico." The interior pages have various news of the day & a great wealth of ads.
Complete in for pages with untrimmed margins. In uncommonly nice condition with a bit of light, scattered foxing as would be expected.
