Item # 622447

December 25, 1872

THE NEW YORK TIMES, December 25, 1872

* Phineas Barnum Circus Museum Fire

The back page has an article headed: "NEW-YORK FIRES" "A Million Dollars' Worth of Property in Flames" "Barnum's Museum and Other Buildings Wholly Destroyed" "The Entire Collection of Wild Animals Burned to Death" and more. Lengthy text. Nice to have in this venerable newspaper title.
Other news and advertisements of the day. Complete in 8 pages, nice condition.
