FACSIMILE. 1p. printed on verso of floral wallpaper. Folio. A facsimile of a Confederate wall-paper newspaper, printed on the verso of a sheet of wallpaper due to the scarcity of paper. "Compelled to print on one side of the paper only, and frequently shorn of advertisements, [the editor] gave to his readers only the military information, the local news, and occasional quotations from other journals" (Brigham). This issue is famous for the note added July 4th at the bottom of the page by just victorious Union soldiers: "Two days bring about great changes. The banner of the Union floats over Vicksburg . this is the last wall paper edition, and is, excepting this note, from the type as we found them. It will be valuable hereafter as a curiousity". Clarence Brigham "Wall-Paper Newspapers of the Civil War" Stamped copyright applied for Jan. 1888 on lower margin. Some splitting at old folds FACSIMILE. 1p. printed on verso of floral wallpaper. Folio.
