Rare title from this era...

Item # 699458

December 02, 1718

THE FLYING-POST: OR, THE POSTS-MASTER, London, March 11, 1717-8 (1718 by today's calendar) In 1695 the Licensing Act of England was allowed to lapse, which caused several newspapers to begin publication, this title being one of them. But this is certainly one of the more rare titles as we have only offered a few in the past 50 years.
Filled with various reports from Europe, with close to half of the back page taken up with advertisements.
Complete as a single sheet, 8 by 13 1/4 inches, partial tax stamp on the front page, scattered foxing various small magic tears.
