A stop along the Gold Rush trail...
Item # 705450
May 01, 1875
LIVERMORE ENTERPRISE, Alameda County, California, May 16, 1874 A quite rare title from this town on the eastern edge of the San Francisco Bay area. In the middle of the 19th century it was important as a first day's stop from the San Jose area to the gold fields of California.
This is the volume 1, number 1 issue, the first published. We believe this is only the 2nd issue of this title we have offered in our 48 years. Page 2 begins with the editor's comments: "A Few Words" in which he explains the purpose of the newspaper.
Four pages, archival strengthening at the spine, various tears with some minor margin loss ar the eight, an upper corner of the front leaf is lacking but fortunately no loss of text.
