Territorial Oklahoma...



Item # 709985

March 06, 1903

THE RECORD, Moore, Oklahoma, March 6, 1903  This is actually a "territorial" newspaper, as Oklahoma did not become a state until 1907, one of only 3 of the contiguous 48 to join the union in the 20th century (New Mexico & Arizona the other two).
This newspaper apparently only lasted a year, with no institutional holdings outside of Oklahoma.
The front page has the text of a Proclamation signed in type by: Theodore Roosevelt. Many illustrations within.
A small folio-size newspaper of 12 pages with local & national news, and a page 2 column headed: "Territory Topics". Very nice condition.
