A list of titles priced at under $50 includes: The London Gazette, The Athenian Mercury, Votes of the House of Commons, The Observator, and The Weekly Pacquet of Advice From Rome, all of which are British publications.

I’am a hugh lincoln fan so i bought it and framed it, its hanging in my office. the auctioneer handed it to me and said you got a great buy. how can i tell if its original or fake, thank you for your help. mike
