The Echo- White Mountain and Tourists' Register.

(19th century New England Tourism)

Issued Bethlehem, N.H., late 19th century, Summers 1883- 1890.

Small collection of six complete and two incomplete late 19th century newspaper issues. Printed within the White Mountains in central NH. 

The issues in the lot are:

July 11, 1885 / Aug 2, 1884 / Sept. 7, 1889 / Aug. 30, 1884 / Sept. 20, 1890 / July 5, 1890 (incomplete, only 8 pp. of 16) / Aug. 11, 1883 / Jul 4, 1885 (lacks front cover, so 14 pp. of 16).

Many illustrations throughout, including advertising and views, endless detailed stories of local interest, countless names of visitors staying at the many hotels across the region, perhaps of interest to genealogists.

Each issue shows signs of time and age, as do most old newspapers like this which survive entirely by random chance. All have been folded in half long ago (perhaps as issued), fold-lines now browned, numerous scattered edge splits, short tears, browning, etc. Numerous pages still unopened as issued.

Each issue measures c. 16 1/2" H x 11 3/4" W.
