Nice engraving in the masthead...



Item # 698180

February 01, 1753

THE WORLD, London, England, Feb. 1, 1753 

* 18th century original

This is an interesting six page newspaper which only lasted for four years, devoted to satirizing the vices and follies of the fashionable world rather than reporting the news of the day. 
Nice woodcut in the masthead of a man writing in a book while looking at a globe. Six pages, 7 by 11 inches, nice condition.
