THE DAILY DELTA, New Orleans, Aug. 31, 1850 Newspapers from the pre-Civil War South are rather difficult to find. Here is one from Louisiana.
Among the many page 3 ads are: "$100 Reward" for a runaway mulatto woman, with a small print of her. Also a front page ad: "$20 Reward for a runaway with a print; "Negro Clothing" with much detail. There are also 24 illustrated steamboat ads.
Four pages, archivally rejoined at the spine, two old, non-archival mends, nice condition.
