Washington's first inaugural address...

Item # 701534

July 02, 1789

THE LONDON CHRONICLE, England, July 2, 1789 In a day when American newspapers with the printing of Washington's inaugural address are well into four figures--if available at all--British newspaper reports become perhaps the last opportunity for a period English language printing at an accessible price.
Great that this report is entirely on the front page, headed: "America" "General Washington's Speech to Both Houses of Congress on the 30th of April, 1789". It is signed by him in type on the last column: G. WASHINGTON.
A great issue for display given its relatively small size & the historic text entirely on the front page.
Complete in 8 pages, 8 1/2 by 11 1/4 inches, great condition.
An extremely historic newspaper.
