 Welcome to the latest newsletter from Timothy Hughes Rare & Early Newspapers. Along with our usual monthly features (newly released catalog items, discounted newspapers, featured posts, and more), much like last May, we’re taking this opportunity to extend a special welcome to the many new collectors who have joined our community over the past year. Whether you were drawn to a specific historical event, an attention-grabbing headline, or a personal passion, we are glad you’re here and hope your appreciation for the collectible continues to grow. To this end, we’d like to bring your attention to our blog: History’s Newsstand. We’ve developed this resource to help both new and veteran collectors deepen their understanding of the hobby. While the blog covers a wide-variety of posts dedicated to “rare & early newspapers”, to-date we’ve published five in-depth posts that serve as an essential “Rare Newspapers Primer.” It’s a great place to start if you’re looking to learn more about the nuances of collecting. Whereas the most recent posts are flagged below, you can jump right in with these introductory posts at: [COLLECTING NEWSPAPERS – A Primer]. Additionally, whether you are a seasoned or novice collector of newspapers, if you’d like to suggest a topic to be included in such a “Primer”, please contact me at guy@rarenewspapers.com. Thanks.
And now for the ongoing features…
- New to Catalog 366: great issues added in the past few days.
