A rare anti-slavery title...



Item # 698939

July 05, 1851

THE COMMONWEALTH & EMANCIPATOR, Boston, July 5, 1851  A very scarce title that existed for just 28 issues thru July 12, 1851. This is the next-to-last issue published.
This was one of several anti-slavery newspapers that existed in that era, but it is among only five we have seen.
Four pages, large folio size, some foxing, a few archival mends at the margins, good condition. Folder size noted is for the issue folded in half.
