September 27, 1669
THE LONDON GAZETTE, England, Sept. 27, 1669 Among the front page reports is one noting in part: "...the ship form New York intending with her lading of Tobacco, Hides and Furrs for Amsterdam. Here lately came in the St. Jacob of London from Amsterdam bound for Virginia..." with a bit more.
Rather rare to find such early mention of the "new world" on the front page of a 1660's newspaper.
Complete as a single sheet newspaper, 7 by 11 1/4 inches, very nice condition.
