Davy Crockett....



Item # 686285

May 10, 1834

NILES' WEEKLY REGISTER, Baltimore, May 10, 1834  A brief item at the top of an inside page mentions: "Col. Crockett is yet on his "tower" to the north, and has much amused the people by his originalities, and the broad good humor that plays on his "honest face".
There is much reporting from Congress, and also an article headed: "Great Aeronautic Expedition" concerning a trip in a balloon.
Sixteen pages, 6 1/4 by 9 1/2 inches, very nice condition.

As noted in Wikipedia, this title: "...(was) one of the most widely-circulated magazines in the United States...Devoted primarily to politics...considered an important source for the history of the period."

Item from Catalog 353 (released for April 2025)
