The California Gold Rush... Early print of James K. Polk...



Item # 680496

June 30, 1849

SATURDAY EVENING POST, Philadelphia, June 30, 1849  The front page has a print of: "Louis Kossuth", the President of Hungary, with related text.
But the better content is on page 2 with almost a full column headed: "California" with some fine content on the early period of the Gold Rush, including at least two letters. The photos do not show the full report.
Page 2 has a nice print headed: "Biography for Mr. Polk" with related text.
Four pages, large folio size, never bound nor trimmed, 3 folds with mild fold & margin wear. Generally good. Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
