A PERFECT DIURNALL OF THE PASSAGES IN PARLIAMENT, London, December 26, 1642 One of the earlier "newsbooks", or predecessors of today's newspapers, this rare issue has a wood engraving in the masthead showing the member of Parliament. Such wood engravings in mastheads of the day are exceedingly unusual.

PALESTINE DAILY HERALD, Texas, May 23, 1934 See the photo for the great banner headline on the death of the famed outlaw duo Bonnie & Clyde. Most issues found on their death are one or two column reports, making banner headlines such as this extremely uncommon. And great to have in a Texas newspaper, as they were killed near the Texas/Louisiana border.

THE RED RIVER ROVER, "Printed on board Steamer Des Moines", March 21, 1864 A most fascinating and possibly unique little newspaper printed on lined, blue ledger paper. This is the first issue (and possibly the last) as the front page contains the "Saluatory" which explains how this paper came into being: <i>"We present to-day this little sheet to the citizens of Red River country and the soldiers who are now threading their way among the intricate bayous of this part of Louisiana, with the hope that it may be beneficial to those who follow the ways of treason, and entertaining to the brave boys who are now vindicating the intregrity of the Federal Union even at the cannon's mouth. It is printed upon the material of the Louisiana Democrat, of Alexandria, the last number of which was issued on the 15th of March, the day before the Stars and stripes were raised upon the Court House, though it contained not one word of warning to its readers that the army of the United States was moving upon the waters of the Red River--but was brimful of blustering secession news, all favorable for successs to the Confederacy..."</i> Interesting reading on pages 1 and 4, with the blank pages 2 & 3 being taken up with a handwritten letter of a soldier to his wife, dated March 31. Exceedingly rare.

KANSAS CITY DAILY JOURNAL, Missouri, April 4, 1882 One of the very best issues on the death of Jesse James, as Kansas City is about 50 miles from St. Joseph, where Jesse was shot by Robert Ford. As would be expected the front page has a lengthy article on this timely, local report.

THE CLAY BUGLE, Rochester, N.Y., October 12, 1844 An early, and very rare "campaign newspaper", created specifically to support the campaign of Henry Clay for President of the United States. In the days before other forms of media, newspapers were the only way for the citizenry to learn of the platforms of those running for public office. They were, but nature, short-lived newspapers. This is one such issue, and an unusual one featuring a bugle in the masthead. In the dateline is: <i>"Our Cause Is Just--Our Union Perfect."</i> At the top of the front page is a campaign ad, just beneath the flag, supporting Henry Clay for President.
