Beyond the historic headline…
November 1, 2012 by TimHughes · Leave a Comment
"Newspapers that shaped the world..."
Some of the better & more fascinating items found in old newspapers are not the most historic or significant, but rather the casual appearance of seemingly innocuous reports which excite collecting interest beyond the historic headline or dramatic presentation which are the more usual draw.
Much of what intrigues collectors can be lost within the body of reports, yet they tell a story of their own, such as the patriotic fervor of some colonist during the Revolutionary War. I recall an issue of the Edinburgh Evening Courant of June, 1776 reporting on American soldiers: "…Their uniform is a dark grey coarse linen frock, which covers the whole body...with the words, 'Death or Liberty' marked in large red letters on the right sleeve; and many of them are so enthusiastic as to have them marked with their own blood...". This report is almost lost on page 3 yet its message is very telling of the spirit which caused the Americans to win the war against a world power despite insurmountable odds.
Some reports are fascinating by their bias. A Richmond newspaper of July, 1863 reporting on the Battle of Gettysburg notes: "...The Confederates did not gain a victory, neither did the enemy. He succeeded in defending himself & we failed in some portions of an attack...We killed more of the enemy than we lost; we took very many more prisoners than lost. The Confederate army did not leave the enemy until it had tried every link of his armour…” Another newspaper notes: “ ..Information, certainly authentic, is in the hands of the Government, which leaves no doubt of the safety & triumph of the noble army. General Lee was victorious in all the combats which have taken place. He has been engaged with the whole force of the United States & has broken its backbone...", Perhaps the most extraordinary example of optimism appeared in the Richmond Examiner of July 25: "…The result was not a defeat, it was not a loss; it was only not a victory...It was little else than a disappointment of extraordinary expectations...". What a precious statement as an example of Confederate optimism.
Other little gems were very prophetic in their reporting, particularly when read with an historic perspective. A Scottish newspaper from 1775 sensed a lasting war with America as it reflected on the Battle of Bunker: "…The mischiefs which have already arisen & the greater calamities which are threatened from the unnatural war excited in America...It is impossible we can see, without the utmost alarm, preparations making for the prosecution of an expensive & ruinous war with our own Colonies...". Some can be very recent, like the New York Times comment on rookie Mickey Mantle in 1951: "...Mantle, who gives every promise of developing into an outstanding baseball star, was ordered to report to his draft board next Wednesday..." An editorial comment in the Army & Navy Journal just after the Gettysburg Address opined: “…a dedicatory speech by President Lincoln, which we give in full, as decidedly the best feature of the occasion, as well as one of the most felicitous utterances of its author." How true.
Some were prophetic even when the reports were simply wrong, like the Illustrated American article of 1898 reporting on "A New Flying Machine That Flies"--five years before the Wright brothers--when it said: "...It is impossible to imagine without terror the day when these mechanical birds, these flying apparitions, will be able to rain upon armies, hostile towns and escalating parties most deadly and most destructive explosives...". How true it would become.
There can be much to be found in newspapers beyond the headline. What a thrill it is to discover such hidden gems; reports that have escaped hundreds of years of history only to rediscovered with new-found relevance today. Such are just some of the joys of collecting early newspapers.

FLOVENT OVER THE COUNTER
October 10, 2011 by TimHughes · 3 Comments
FLOVENT OVER THE COUNTER, Many collectors may wonder what the relationship is between the condition of a newspaper and its price. Obviously the condition of a newspaper is subjective, and some problems bother some collectors more than others. But for issues offered through our company here are my thoughts as to how I price our newspapers:
* "Natural" faults are less of a problem than human-created, FLOVENT coupon. FLOVENT australia, uk, us, usa, By this I mean problems with foxing (a darkening of portions due to the natural aging of the chemicals in the paper or the environment in which the newspaper was stored), folds, FLOVENT from mexico, FLOVENT long term, and minor edge tears. Such disfigurements are to be expected with newspapers of a certain age, FLOVENT used for, FLOVENT description, and if considerable do affect the price but less so than other disfigurements. Even water staining I would consider a natural fault and can be excused as something to be expected and a minor problem if not causing loss of readability, FLOVENT online cod.
* Human-created disfigurements would include old tape mends & stains, trimming at the margins such that letters or words are partially shaved (caused when the bindery cuts too close to the text), lengthy tears into text, holes, portions clipped, etc. Such problems are annoying & could have been avoided with better care and I tend to discount the price of a newspaper more liberally than newspapers with natural faults, FLOVENT OVER THE COUNTER. Order FLOVENT online overnight delivery no prescription, How much. It depends on the degree of the problem, buy no prescription FLOVENT online, FLOVENT samples, so subjectivity is very important. If a newspaper has a noteworthy report which is not affected by the damage, buy cheap FLOVENT, FLOVENT gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, it would be discounted less than had the notable report been affected. A small 2 by 1 inch piece clipped from the back leaf would be discounted less than a 2 by 10 inch clipped issue, japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal. A disfigurement to an inside page might result in a minimal price adjustment if the issue is offered for the displayability of the front page.
FLOVENT OVER THE COUNTER, * Irregular margins, caused when a newspaper is improperly removed from a bound volume, will result in lowered values if the irregularity causes loss of type. FLOVENT wiki, Most irregular margins involve only the blank spine & the price adjustment would be minimal.
* Some damaged issues are relegated to our damaged pile to be sold in lots of 100 or more at a discounted price, FLOVENT maximum dosage. FLOVENT without prescription, But rare or historic issues are offered individually & priced according to the damage. Many collectors are attracted to damaged, FLOVENT from canada, Where can i buy FLOVENT online, discounted newspapers as they provide an opportunity for rare or historic reports at a much lower cost.
* Particularly bothersome to me are issues which are close-trimmed, FLOVENT OVER THE COUNTER. Had the worker doing the trimming at the bindery been more carefully such faults could easily be avoided.
* Less bothersome are wear problems with "never bound" newspapers, online buying FLOVENT. Where can i order FLOVENT without prescription, Such issues are in their natural state as provided to the subscriber or sold on the newsstand, and logically tend to be more worn than issues taken from bound volumes, buy generic FLOVENT. FLOVENT canada, mexico, india, Such natural wear, when minimal, order FLOVENT no prescription, Ordering FLOVENT online, adds a certain patina to the item and would not detract from its value. For serious collectors, FLOVENT use, FLOVENT without a prescription, never-bound issues are preferable to issues from bound volume, but tend to be considerably less common.
* Guillotined issues, order FLOVENT from United States pharmacy, FLOVENT images, which are mechanically cut cleanly at the spine to facilitate microfilming, is a minor disfigurement if ample spine margin remains, about FLOVENT. FLOVENT OVER THE COUNTER, Depending on the issue we might rejoin the issue at the spine with glue, rejoin using archival tape, or simply keep the issue loose.
* Repairing issues can be controversial. Some believe in repairing tears and others prefer they be left as is. After FLOVENT, In general I tend to repair rather than not repair. My primary reason is to prevent further tearing which can occur when a leaf is turned, buy FLOVENT from mexico, Effects of FLOVENT, as a tear is a weak spot which often gets worse when handling. We use a very thin strip of archival tape which does not stain and is almost invisible if properly used, FLOVENT recreational. Get FLOVENT, When an issue is extensively repaired mention is made in the description. A newspaper's price may be affected when archivally repaired, FLOVENT price, depending on the extensiveness of such repairs..

New discovery… Who knows what one might find?
November 8, 2010 by GuyHeilenman · Leave a Comment
We've often mentioned that one of the pleasures of the Rare & Early newspaper collecting hobby is finding unforeseen historical nuggets buried deep within the pages of newspapers... just waiting to be unearthed.
This was recently brought to the surface again by a collector/history teacher who purchases 19th century wholesale lots (undescribed as to content) for his students and for personal use . His note is as follows:
This paper (from a wholesale lot) had a reference to a house vote for the "relief" of Susan Decatur, wife of naval hero Stephen Decatur. She had inherited $75,000 from her husband, who was killed in a duel in 1820. This is the equivalent of $1.4 million today. The bill was defeated. One of the nays was cast by Congressman Crockett (David). Minor, but priceless info. Your company does more good than you know.Feel free to share your own discoveries with the collecting community.
