Description: Up for sale is a copy of an ORIGINAL and HISTORIC Civil War Era Newspaper the "New York Tribune" dated Tuesday, February 7, 1865. Read first hand what was happening in the US around 2 months before the official end of the Civil War (April 9, 1865). It is a large 4 page (8 pages front and back) newspaper measuring approximately 16" x 21". The paper covers some important historical news including the following articles "The Peace Movement - Arrival of the Peace Men - Mr. Lincoln Joins Them - The Arrangement for a Talk", "The Great Contest - General Sherman's Operations", a listing of "Deaths of Soldiers In The Hospitals In And About New York", "A Bounty Jumper Executed by Shooting - A Warning from Gen. Dix.", "The Exchange of Prisoners" and "The Great Amendment - Progress of Ratification". It includes news on the stock exchange, some advertisments, and much, much more! The paper is in Poor condition. There is heavy wear and browning to the paper and there are several creases where it was folded. There are many creases and tears along the edges, some that affect the actual articles. There are a number of tears, stains and creases in the middle of the editorials, as well. The 150 year old paper also suffers from some foxing, staining and heavy browning. The middle section is particularly browned, ripped and stained and the paper is very "delicate" to the touch. There is a sticker on the upper middle of the front of the paper - just above the word "Tribute" in the title - that reads "J Henderson 27 Jun65 BROOKVILLE Pa" placed there by a previous owner. This is an incredible chance to read about our countries history on the original day it was reported! A great opportunity for any collector or history buff to own a true piece of American history! Other dings here and there. Please email with questions and see my store for other great items. Inventory R-Box 13
