1865 · Prescott
by McCormick, Richard C
Prescott: Office of the Arizona Mine, 1865. [2],13pp. Folded sheets, untrimmed and unbound. Foredges stained and a bit frayed. Overall a very good copy, in original state. In a half morocco box. A very rare early Arizona imprint. McCormick gives a "state of the territory" address, including discussions of both hostile and friendly Indians, and of the burgeoning mining industry in Arizona. McMurtrie locates only two copies of this rarity, at the Bancroft Library and the Library of Congress. OCLC adds four others. McMURTRIE (ARIZONA) 7. ARIZONA IMPRINTS 7. MUNK, p.141. OCLC 11871322.
