Virginia City: home of the Comstock Lode...
Item # 707888
August 19, 1872
VIRGINIA EVENING CHRONICLE, Virginia [City], Nevada, Aug. 19, 1872 Virginia City is one of America's largest historic landmarks. Some say Virginia City's rich gold and silver mines financed the Civil War.
Now rich in history, Virginia City and the Comstock Lode still maintain the flavor of the wild but very prosperous mining days, when Mark Twain roamed the streets (he wrote for this paper in the 1860's) and everybody wanted a piece of the "Richest Place on Earth."
This is a volume 1 issue. Four pages, printed on high quality newsprint, very nice condition.
