THE HYP-DOCTOR, London, Oct. 30, 1733
* Very rare 18th century publication
The title is an archaic phrase for a "hodgepodge of nonsense". This curious paper published from 1730-1741, a pro-Walpole (first Prime Minister of Great Britain) newspaper created to oppose another British title "The Craftsman".
Rather than presenting news items the newspaper is more editorial in format focused on a single theme. A single sheet issue with wide, untrimmed margins, 9 by 14 1/4 inches, red tax stamp on the back page, very nice condition.
