"Courier From the Lower Rhine"...

Item # 650951
July 24, 1793
COURIER DU BAS-RHIN, July 24, 1793 This title translates to "Courier From the Lower Rhine". This was a significant newspaper during the late 18th century, particularly known for its role in the Enlightenment period. Published in French from 1767 until around 1807–1810, it was based in Kleve, a Prussian exclave near the Dutch Republic. This location allowed it to benefit from the relative press freedom of the region, making it a key outlet for political and cultural news during a time of major historical upheaval.
Eight pages, 6 1/2 by 7 3/4 inches, very nice condition.
