Eighteenth century American publications are somewhat scarce. The capital of the United States was in Philadelphia at this time while the District of Columbia was under construction. Contains news of the day with several advertisements including one on page 3 for the sale of a Negro boy. Two other slave related ads, another on page 3 and one on the back page.
Four pages, untrimmed, tiny binding holes along the spine, nice condition.
