PEOPLE'S ADVOCATE, Austin, Nevada, Oct. 31, 1891
* Very rare old West publication
A rare title from this small town at the very center of Nevada, at an elevation of 6575 feet. It was a booming silver mining area in the 1800's when the population exceeded 10,000. Today the population is 192. This newspaper lasted less than 2 years and only two institutions have any issues.
Four pages, a 2 by 1 1/2 in. ad is clipped from the front leaf, otherwise very nice condition.
