September 08, 1682
LONDON MERCURY, England, Sept. 8, 1682  According to Crane and Kaye, this title lasted but 56 issues, obviously making it a very uncommon title. A single sheet, with a front page report stating: "The East-India Company began their Sale on Monday, and after they had disposed of some Saltpeter, &c. Adjourned the further sale to the 4th of October." Very good, untrimmed condition.
