A great title for an anti-slavery themed newspaper...



Item # 693300

July 20, 1843

EMANCIPATOR AND FREE AMERICAN, Boston, July 20, 1843  As the title would suggest, this is an anti-slavery themed newspaper, and a great name for a newspaper with this focus.
Page 2 has a political notice supporting "For President, James G. Birney" for the Liberty ticket, created by abolitionists who believed in political action to further antislavery goals. It existed only from 1840-1848.
The content is mostly anti-slavery reports from various conventions, meetings, and societies in various states, plus a variety of anti-slavery articles as shown in the photos.
Four pages, very nice condition.
