Early from the capital of Florida...



Item # 582954

September 09, 1854

THE FLORIDIAN AND JOURNAL, Tallahassee, Florida, Sept. 9, 1854 

* Rare from pre Civil War South

A nice & rare opportunity for a very early newspaper from the capital of Florida. Very rarely are we able to find antebellum Florida newspapers, particularly from the capital. Formatted much like other newspapers of the day with various news reports both local & national, and a wealth of ads as well. 
The complete front page is taken up with: "An Act to establish Certain Post Roads" in the U.S., with a listing of hundreds of towns in New England, continued from a previous issue & continued in a later one. Page 2 has: "Georgia & Florida Boundary Line" & "The Capital Question--Removal or No Removal" among other items.
Complete in 4 pages, foxing throughout, generally in nice condition with untrimmed margins.
