NILES' NATIONAL REGISTER, Baltimore, Dec. 28, 1839
* President Martin Van Buren
* State of the Union Address
Being so close to the nation's capital it is not surprising that much of the content in this issue is on politics of the day, including a wealth of reporting from Congress. The prime feature would be the complete and lengthy text of the annual state-of-the-union address of President Martin Van Buren. The address takes over 4 page and is signed in type: M. Van Buren (see for beginning & end).
Sixteen pages, never bound nor trimmed so it folds out to be one large sheet. Very nice condition.
As noted in Wikipedia, this title: "...(was) one of the most widely-circulated magazines in the United States...Devoted primarily to politics...considered an important source for the history of the period."
