A rare title from the Dakota Territory...



Item # 690671

November 14, 1883

THE INTER STATE, Gary, Dakota, Nov. 14, 1883  

* Very rare publication
* Deuel County, South Dakota


A very rare railroad town, territorial newspaper from what is present-day South Dakota, six years before statehood. They refer to themselves as the "Gate City of Dakota" as it is situated at the eastern border of the Territory, very close to Minnesota. At the 2010 census the population of Gary was 227. It never had a population larger than 600.
Eight pages, never bound nor trimmed so it folds out to one large sheet, some repairs to minor margin tears, generally good condition.
