Description

Heading: (Newspapers - California Gold Rush, etc.)
Author:
Title: The Klaus Werner collection of newspapers relating to the California Gold Rush and the exploration and expansion into the western territories of the United States - Part Two
Place Published: Various places
Publisher:
Date Published: 1817-1859
Description: Approx. 620 issues. Daily & weekly. Various sizes. A few previous bound and now disbound, most never bound and as issued.Important collection of newspapers selected by and for the late collector and scholar Klaus Werner, whose passion was the study of events relating to the exploration of the Transmississippi West. The newspapers here gathered are not a random sampling of periodicals of the era but were primarily selected for specific articles covering the great drama of the age, the discovery of gold in California and the massive movement westward by those anxious to acquire it. Formed over several decades, the collection is a treasure chest of source material on the great events of the first half of the 19th century. The first part of this collection of Gold Rush newspapers was sold by PBA Galleries in August 2023. To download a spreadsheet of the entire collection, click here.
