1862100336Newspaper folio unbound 8pp. Dampstained browned at edges with some foxing early owner's ink stamp on top margin some small tears and chips along edges and a little creasing. Still in decent shape overall. This is one of the earliest printings of the Emancipation Proclamation which was issued on September 22 1862. The Emancipation Proclamation declared freedom for all slaves in any Confederate state that didn't return to the Union by January 1 1863. Although this executive order did not actually free a large number of slaves it set the stage for the freedom of all slaves. Coverage of the Emancipation in this newspaper begins in the middle of the first page. This newspaper article represents important coverage of a very significant event in American History. archives government exhibits emancipation website books
