November 08, 1748
WHITEHALL EVENING-POST OR LONDON INTELLIGENCER, England, November 8, 1748 Almost all of the front page is taken up with the details of the Treaty of Aix la Chapelle, which was signed on Oct. 18, 1748 and which ended the War of Austrian Succession. The text carries over slightly to page 2 where is noted: "to be continued". At the very top of the front page is: "This morning an Account was received from Aix la Chapelle that the Plenipotentiaries of his Sardinian Majesty had acceded, on the 7th instant, N.S. to the Definitive Treaty of Peace...." with a bit more (see).
Four pages, decorative masthead, red tax stamp on the front page, nice condition.
wikipedia notes: The second Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle (Aachen) of 1748 ended the War of the Austrian Succession.
A congress assembled at the Imperial Free City of Aachen, in the west of the Holy Roman Empire, on 24 April 1748. The resulting treaty was signed on 18 October 1748.
Britain and France dictated the treaty, and other nations followed the terms which had previously been agreed at the Congress of Breda.
