On the founding of Georgia...
Item # 703958
September 02, 1732
THE COUNTRY JOURNAL: OR THE CRAFTSMAN, London, Sept. 2, 1732 Page 2 has a nice & historic item reading in part: "Commissions have been granted to the following persons by the Trustees for establishing the Colony of GEORGIA in America, impowering them to collect benefactions for carrying on the designs of the charter...".
What follows is a list of names, including: "The Right Hon. the Lord Baltimore" among others. And a bit further on is a notice reading: "We have received letters from several Persons desiring to know to whom they must go in order to be fitted out for the Colony of GEORGIA; we suppose the properest method is to apply to one of the persons above mentioned."
Other news of the day, with all of pages 3 & 4 taken up with ads, a few of which are illustrated.
Four pages, very nice condition.
