April 03, 1730

THE DAILY POST-BOY, London, April 3, 1730  This issue is in rather uncommon format, as the entire front page taken up with 2 large charts, the first: "A List of Men of War & Merchant Ships that Compose the Galleons now fitting out at Cadiz, for Cartagena and Porto-Bello...". The other is a chart: "At the Assizes held at Stafford...the 24th Day of March, 1729..." with a column of the: "Prisoners Names", a column of what they were: "Indicted for" and a column of their: "Judgment".
The back page is more typical in format with news & ads.
Complete as a single sheet issue, 9 by 15 inches, very nice condition.
