May 10, 1797
COLUMBIAN CENTINEL, Boston, May 10, 1797  The middle of the front page contains not one but four Acts of Congress, each signed in script type by the President: Go. Washington.
Such issues are scarce--particularly with more than one signature--yet increasingly desirable and very displayable as such.
Beginning on the front page & concluding on page 2 is a letter: "From Mr. Jefferson, late Minister of the United States in France...to a citizen of Virginia."
Four pages, several archival mends at fold separations, minor tears at margins, some chipping at margins.
