August 30, 1862
THE SATURDAY EVENING POST, Philadelphia, Aug. 30, 1862 The front page features a rather large & dramatic print captioned: "A Pass In The Rocky Mountains - We present our readers above with a view of a pass in the Rocky Mountains, with a band of emigrants en route. It affords a lively idea of the adventurous kind of traveling which the California emigrant meets with in crossing the mountain ranges."
Quite rare to find such westward migration prints.
Much literary content but Civil War reports as well.
Eight pages, wear at the margins,, some foxing to the front page.
