THE ALEXANDRIA HERALD, Virginia, Nov. 7, 1821
* Very rare 19th century American publication
It would appear this is the very first of this title--pre-Civil War--that we have offered.
Page 2 includes: "Pirates Taken" and: "Steam-Boat Case" which involves Robert Fulton and who has the right to operate on the Hudson River.
The back page includes 3 illustrated runaway slave and indentured servant ads each with considerable detail. The front page has 11 illustrated ship ads.
Four pages, archivally strengthened at the spine, minor margin wear, good condition.
