Vicksburg, Mississippi - The Daily Citizen Newspaper - July 2, 1863
The last edition of the Vicksburg, Mississippi "the Daily Citizen" newpaper. Printed on wallpaper. Typeset on July 2, 1863, but printed by Union troops on July 4, 1863 with a change at the bottom in the last column announcing their victory. See images at right. One of my favorite items of the War, truly reflecting the struggle on the ground.
