#10524 - Charlestown Massachusetts 1865 Newspaper
This is an original issue of the "Charlestown (Massachusetts) Advertiser." It is a large folded sheet or cotton-rag paper, which creates 4 pages. It is loaded with local news, minor references to Civil War, and dozens of CW period merchandise ads. It is a cool read from the era, while many Charestown men were risking life & limb on the battlefield down South. The paper has age stains, edge wrinkling and minor tears. No bad damage. Sturdy! I have a half dozen copies. Price is for each 1 (one). Comes rolled in a shipping tube. This one is dated February 18, 1865.
