Tallahassee, Florida
April 21, 1846

Here is an incredibly well-preserved early Florida newspaper that truly gives the reader a real feeling of life some fifteen years before the Civil War.  I’ve read it cover to cover (more than once) and this original paper is as close as you can come to a “time machine.”  It publishes the latest news on the Mexican War, a report on the Florida Keys, and even an illustrated notice for a Runaway Slave!  If you want to experience what life was like over 160 years ago in Florida, this paper should be yours!  Condition is fine and I’ll guarantee that this issue is the only one of its date anyone can ever locate.  Please call as this one will not last long!

$2,250
