A bright, crisp broadside, printed on yellow paper, with a small cut of a sloop under full sail. In addition, this is an early Long Island piece, as few of the steamship routes of the time went out on the island beyond Brooklyn or Flushing. An indication that this was not an insignificant trip is the fact that there was only one round-trip per week, leaving Broome Street, New York, on Friday and returning on Monday. A very rare and attractive relic of the steamship era, particularly unusual for its Long Island association.
