Beautiful masthead in this 1795 Canterbury newspaper...

Item # 643242
KENTISH GAZETTE, Canterbury, England, 1795  We seldom have titles to offer from Canterbury, and this newspaper has one of the more decorative & beautiful mastheads of the era. Note the two very detailed engravings on either side, one of which is the fabled Canterbury Cathedral. A coat-of-arms in the middle, with very ornate lettering for 'Kentish Gazette'.
A fine issue of this title, complete in 4 pages, very nice, clean condition, with typical news & ads of the day.
