THE LONDON GAZETTE, England, Oct. 21, 1669
* Among the earliest of English language newspapers to be had
Not just a very early issue of this famous title (5th year of its existence) but the front page has America mention: "...Tuesday last arrived the Desire of this place from Boston in New England...she met with a Flyboat from the Barbados in 22 days where a great hurricane happened..." and a bit more.
Single sheet, 7 by 11 1/4 inches, great condition.
