Mining camp newspaper from over 100 years after its boom...

THE GOLDFIELD REVIEW, Columbia, Goldfield Mining District, Nevada, Feb. 23, 1905  

* Rare ghost town publication
* Suburb of Goldfield
* Gold mining hey day era

This is the first of this title we've discovered. It is the volume 1, number 18 issue.
Goldfield was the scene of the biggest gold bonanza in the United States since the Alaskan Gold Rush.
At the peak of the boom in 1905-10, Goldfield was Nevada's second largest city. The editor of the Goldfield News, the town's largest newspaper, boasted that it reported on "All that's new and true in the greatest gold camp ever known." The Goldfield News was one of the leading newspapers in Nevada, and with its daily and weekly mining reports, a paper that drew a national readership. Today Goldfield has a population of just 268.
As might be imagined the content is almost entirely about the mining industry. There are a wealth of ads as well.
Four pages, there are several older, non-archival tape mends at the central fold, plus much archival strengthening at the folds. A bit of light foxing minimal wear at folds, generally good condition.
