About This Item
New Orleans: The Daily Item, 1899. About very good.. 600pp. Original printed pictorial wrappers. Extremities worn, covers rubbed and lightly soiled. Some slight worming, heavier at front of text. Light tanning and wear. A rare New Orleans almanac full of facts and figures on a wide array of subjects ranging from Queen Victoria's income to information on the Texas petroleum industry. With numerous advertisements for businesses across the country, including a woodcut depicting the publisher's premises. The publication appears to have been rather short-lived, appearing from 1897 to 1900. An interesting and eclectic volume, designed to be an all-purpose ready reference for the average man. OCLC locates four serial holdings for this title, all in the South.
