Bank of the United States is created...
Item # 705462
March 02, 1791
GAZETTE OF THE UNITED STATES, Philadelphia, March 2, 1791 On the front page at the top of the first column under an engraving of an early version of the Great Seal of the United States is: "An ACT to Incorporate the Subscribers to the Bank of the United States". The text of the act takes most of the front page and is signed in type: Frederick Augustus Muhlenberg, John Adams, George Washington & Thomas Jefferson.
One of the more important Acts signed into law during the early years of our federal system.
Also on the front page is: "An ACT regulating the number of Representatives chosen by Kentucky and Vermont." This act is also signed in type by Muhlenberg, Adams, Washington & Jefferson.
Nice to have this content in this famous federalist newspaper, which was essentially the "mouthpiece" of the Washington administration and which consequently was the first newspaper to print such legal documents.
Four pages, nice condition.
