Background
- Scope and content:
-
This collection consists of newspapers and periodicals from the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. Most of the newspapers are incomplete issues; some of the periodicals are complete, eg, "The Illustrated London News" of December 8, 1928.
Two of the newspapers, "The Daily Citizen" of Vicksburg, Mississippi, and "The Boston Gazette and Country Journal", are either facsimiles or forgeries; cf. the accompanying circulars from the Library of Congress describing these newspapers.
- Acquisition information:
- There is no known provenance for these newspapers. "The Daily Citizen", a Vicksburg, Mississippi, newspaper, (accession number 1997.25.2) may have come from Mr. Frank P. Lovett. The issues of "The Illustrated London News" may have come from T. Marie Chilton in the early 1960s.
- Arrangement:
-
Newspapers are arranged in alphabetical order, and then in chronological order by title.
