August 11, 1900

ARIZONA DAILY STAR, Tucson, Aug. 11, 1900  


* Rare old West publication

A territorial newspaper as Arizona did not join the Union until 12 years later.
The top of the front page has column heads: "FITZSIMMONS THE WINNER" "He Does the Trick Easily in the Sixth Round" with more on the Bob Fitzsimmons vs. Gus Ruhlin boxing match.
Four pages, rejoined at the spine, a few discrete archival mends at margins, good condition.
