Early title from Ireland...



Item # 699476

November 19, 1771

THE PUBLIC REGISTER, OR FREEMAN'S JOURNAL, Dublin, Ireland, Nov. 19, 1771  A rather scarce 18th century title with a nice engraving of "Hibernia" in the masthead. The back page is filled with ads.
The entire front page & a bit of page 2 are taken up with three essays each headed; "To the Committee for Conducting the Free Press". Some of the text is quite angry, with some overtones of the situation in America at the time although I don't see specific references.
Four pages, some foxing or dirtiness to the top half of page 1, some minor tears at the spine margins, good condition.
