An anti-slavery newspaper that is best known for its link to the best-selling novel of the 19th century, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe. This historic work first appeared as a 41-week serial in The National Era, starting on June 5, 1851.

The complete serialization appeared almost entirely in the National Era before the book was published, with an overlap of just ten days.

The front page has: "Cincinnati Anti-Slavery Convention". Page 2 includes: "Improvement of the Colored People" "The Duty of Anti-Slavery Voters" and: "Two Weeks Later From California ".
Four pages, great to have in never-bound condition just as sold on the streets, subscriber's name penned above the masthead, a few discrete archival mends, good condition. Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
