Title: San Francisco News Letter and California Advertiser. Devoted to the Leading Interests of California and the Pacific Coast Author: Place: San Francisco Publisher: Date: 1874-75 Description: Six issues, none ever bound, and all complete, comprising: October 17, 1874 * December 19, 1874 * December 26, 1874 * January 16, 1875 * February 13, 1875 * June 5, 1875. Approximately 30.5x23.5 cm. (12x9¼"). The 12/26/74 issue with the original printed outer wrapper still present (though worn). The last five issues itemized above also include the four- or eight-page Postscript to the San Francisco Newsletter and California Advertiser with separate mastheads and imprints, tucked in. Two of these, repeated under their respective dates, are the land promo work by J. Ross Browne, "The Centinela Colony. Great Land Sale in Los Angeles County---Productions of the Country---A Visit to the Property." This separate four-page work is recorded by OCLC in only two copies (under different dates, one each) at Yale, and the Huntington Library. It includes lively commentary about trying to talk bull-headed owners of the old, massive ranches to sell their property for development into smaller tracts for farming. Of the issues present here, OCLC (after careful, difficult examination) seems to show only one location in hard copy (vs. microfilm), except for one of the issues (Dec. 19, with the Jan 2 Postscript) which is shown in two locations (NY Public; Huntington). Lot Amendments Condition: Light edge wear, a few tape repairs to spine folds; overall very good or better. Item number: 230835
