From its first year of publication... Early Uncle Tom's Cabin...



Item # 690526

August 21, 1852

NEW-YORK DAILY TIMES, Aug. 21, 1852 

* 1st year of this famous publication
* Early Uncle Tom's Cabin mention


Rare to find this venerable newspaper from its first year of publication. This is the vol. 1 number 289 issue.
Page 2 has a report of a: "Frightful Accident" "Steamboat Collision on Lake Erie" "250 Lives Lost". But the more notable content is the page 2 "business notice" for: "Poor Uncle Tom--Subject from Uncle Tom's Cabin. Third edition of this popular Song..." with other details. And page 3 has a very early advertisement for: "Barnum's American Museum..." with details.
Four pages, nice condition.
