This 8 page newspaper is in nice condition due to the use of cotton and rag paper during this very historic time in U.S. history. It does contain light dampstaining as shown in the image.

This issue is loaded with advertisements and Civil War reports throughout from the day it was first reported which includes the following FRONT PAGE Map: "THE NAVAL OPERATIONS BETWEEN FORTRESS MONROE AND NORFOLK, Diagram Exhibiting the Water-Passage to Norfolk and Portsmouth, the Evacuated Rebel Batteries at Sewell's Point, and all the Locations of Interest in the Vicinity of Hampton Roads"

Headlines in this issue includes: "NEWS FROM FORTRESS MONROE" "Sewall's Point Shelled by our Vessels of War" "Appearance Of The Merrimac" "GREAT PANIC AT NORFOLK" "A GREAT BATTLE AT WEST POINT" "Thirty Thousand Rebels under Lee Defeated by Gens. Franklin and Sedgwick" and much more. Nice to read about the Civil War as it was happening. MAKES A GREAT UNIQUE GIFT.
