For veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic...



Item # 697577

October 20, 1883

GRAND ARMY SCOUT AND SOLDIERS MAIL, Philadelphia, Oct. 20, 1883  Although this is a volume 2 issue, this is just the second issue we have discovered in our 50+ years.
This newspaper is not listed in Gregory's "Union List of Newspapers".
The newspaper was intended to be subscribed to by veterans of the Civil War, with many articles reflective of battles and events from some 20 years prior.  The masthead engraving has four military-themed prints.
Eight pages, 13 by 20 inches, never bound nor trimmed so it folds out to one large sheet. Very nice condition.
