Default Original Historic Newspapers, Baseball, Revolutionary War...

Hi. This is my first post.

Original Historic Newspapres are my fascination, especially ones from the Revolutionary War with exciting reports on battles as Lexington and Concord, or Trenton.

Sports papers offer a great snap shot into the times.

Civil War papers have those striking headlines and some images too. Check out this Police Gazette newspaper from 1865. It is the first illustrated depiction of the Lincoln Assassination.
