Description
Early American Traveler Newspaper With Advertisement Touting Texas, four pages, large folio, Boston, Massachusetts, February 27, 1835. Of general interest for the world-curious, this paper carries a fantastic advertisement by the Galveston Bay and Texas Land company stating "1000 Emigrant Families of industrious habits will be provided by the subscriber with Farms...". The Texas climate, Anglo culture and enlightened Mexican legal system are fully extolled. Lot includes two other editions of the paper, one of which mentions Crockett's Almanac for 1835 wherein woodsy wisdom is dispensed by Davy himself. Light foxing throughout, some loss to the front page of one issue. Overall good condition on stable paper. From the collection of Darrel Brown.Auction Info
