That’s awesome local history and extra neat they are still around. What a coincidence, I just picked up an original New York Herald newspaper from September 28th 1874. It has the very first creedmoor match in it with scores and target diagrams of every round. I had copies made and am gonna frame the match section. I’ll be shooting in the 150th anniversary match with my 1874 shiloh sharps in 2 weeks. Just got it so lots of loading to do.
Nice! The paper quality looks appealing, too. 👍👍
That's neat. They sell newspapers at Civil War Relic shows. I've considered purchasing some just to have
they are very cool just to have around
