Nice condition For extra protection, this item will be shipped in an archival folderAll items that are offered by The Chronicles are from a large collection that we acquired from an avid collector & dealer of Scarce Paper Americana in the late 1900s. They include newspapers, documents, books, maps and images, with a focus on the civil war era and before. All items are genuine originals. We do not handle copies or reproductions of any itemsUnlike modern paper items, early newspapers & documents made before 1880
generally remain in very nice condition even after centuries of agingThe reason for this is that these early paper items were made with pure cotton & linen,
whereas modern paper is made with wood fiber that often rapidly discolors and gets weak & brittle
