Early & very nice newspaper from San Diego...



Item # 684310

October 04, 1871

SAN DIEGO DAILY UNION, California, Oct. 4, 1871 

* Rare & early from Southern California
* General George Crook & Apache Wars


Very early from San Diego--a volume 2 issue--when the population was just 2300, with a nice engraving of the harbor in the masthead. 
The bottom of the front page has an item beginning: "General Crook's policy is the only one that can redeem 'Arizona from the Apaches ad guarantee to the citizens of that country protection while engaged in developing her marvelous resources...". Also on the front page: "Growth of Towns in California".
Four pages, 12 by 18 inches, printed on high-quality newsprint, very nice condition.
