THE MASSACHUSETTS MAGAZINE, Boston, March, 1792  Although many years ago we had a nice inventory of 18th century American magazines, we find them to be very scarce today.
Here is one of the more famous titles with content which includes: "Observations on Drunkenness" "Description of St. Peter's Church at Rome" "Character of the Swedish Nation" and an article by Benjamin Franklin titled: "Economical Advice".
Near the back are various news items including the very historic: "An Act to Establish the Post Office & Post Roads within the United States" which takes 4 1/2 pages & is continued in a future issue. There is also much on: "Congressional Proceedings" and the "Domestick Chronicle" has news reports from the various states.
Complete in 72 pages, 5 by 8 inches, full title/contents page, very nice condition.

Item from Catalog 349 (released for December, 2024)
