Engraved by Paul Revere...



Item # 694372

April 14, 1785

THOMAS'S MASSACHUSETTS SPY, OR THE WORCESTER GAZETTE, April 14, 1785  The prime feature of this issue would be the masthead as half of it, that which includes the words "Massachusetts Spy", was engraved by the famed Paul Revere. Revere created the masthead designs for just a few newspapers in the Boston area, this being one of them. And this newspaper was published by Isaiah Thomas, arguably the most famous printer during this period of the 18th century.
Four pages, very nice condition. This issue is from the private collection, selected because it was in the best condition of the several issues we once held.
