SAN DIEGO DAILY UNION, California, Oct. 25, 1871 

* Rare & early from Southern California
* Great Chicago fire conflagration disaster


Very early from San Diego--a volume 2 issue--when the population was just 2300, with a nice engraving of the harbor in the masthead. 
The front page has: "Summary OF The Chicago Fire" "Terrible Riot In Los Angeles - Chinese Murder a Policeman--They are Surrounded by a Mob--Seven Chinamen Hung & Nine More to be Strung Up Immediately...." and: "Arizona Waiting".
Four pages, 12 by 18 inches, printed on high-quality newsprint, and in very nice condition.
