THE MAGICIAN, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Oct. 3, 1840
* Very rare publication
* Martin Van Buren
A quite scarce campaign newspaper which existed for the sole purpose of promoting Martin Van Buren for President.
The newspaper lasted but 18 issues (plus a "Extra" edition) from June 27 - Oct. 26, 1840. Not surprisingly the content is almost entirely political.
Four pages, never bound nor trimmed, dirtiness to the front page, several creases, otherwise good
