Exploring an Introductory Lot of Ten 19th Century Newspapers…

What can one find in the Introductory Lot [1] of 10 issues from the 1800s offered at RareNewspapers.com [2] – especially considering the cost is under $30?

To explore this from the perspective of a novice we asked the newest member of our staff, who knew absolutely nothing about “rare & early” newspapers prior to joining our family, to select a random set and start digging through the set. To make the “exploration” as honest an endeavor as possible we asked her to video herself as she explored. Not polished, a bit rough, unrehearsed…  but in our opinion the video provides a fresh look at how a young adult who is new to the collectible might react to receiving such a lot [1]. If you have ever purchased this lot, feel free to share your “finds”.
