"Based on the American Antiquarian Society's landmark collection ... American Broadsides and Ephemera offers fully searchable
facsimile images of approximately 15,000 broadsides printed between 1820 and 1900 and 15,000 pieces of ephemera printed between
1760 and 1900. The remarkably diverse subjects of these broadsides range from contemporary accounts of the Civil War, unusual
occurrences and natural disasters to official government proclamations, tax bills and town meeting reports. Featuring many
rare items, the pieces of ephemera include clipper ship sailing cards, early trade cards, bill heads, theater and music programs,
stock certificates, menus and invitations documenting civic, political and private celebrations."--Help screen.
